The 1947 "Type II" model from Sugar Cane is modeled after the original 501 jeans from the late 1940s, but features a slimmer cut and lower rise than the original 1947. 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.
This jean is an unsanforized style that has been washed once—expect little to no shrinkage if washed cold and hang dried. Our experience shows that this jean will stretch in the waist up to 1.5" with wear.
