The 1947 model from Sugar Cane is modeled after the original 501 jeans from the late 1940s, with a generous rise and straight cut. Crafted from their 14.25oz flagship denim that's woven on vintage Toyoda looms, the fabric features an variable yarn thicknesses to mimic the texture of Levi's 1947 501xx denim, utilizing a black warp rather than an indigo warp on this style. This "Hard Wash" version is heavily washed to give the jean an aged appearance.
This jean is an unsanforized style that has been heavily washed to appear aged—expect little to no shrinkage if washed cold and hang dried. Our experience shows that this jean will stretch in the waist up to 1" to 1.5" with wear.
