This 13oz selvedge denim from Suger Cane is woven with uneven yarns and features two black dye treatments: a sulfur-dyed warp that fades from black to white, and a pigment-dyed weft that fades slowly to gray. The result is one denim with two distinct fade stories woven together.
As for the fit, this “Type III” edition of Sugar Cane’s 1947 style serves up a slim straight look with a mid-rise finish.
Sugar Cane takes a thoughtful, detail-oriented approach to reproducing vintage denim, carefully managing every step — from spinning and dyeing to weaving and stitching. Their fabric is woven slowly on vintage Toyoda shuttle looms. The process is slow and the yields are low, but the texture and character are something special.
