New raw jeans
I need a pair of jeans and have been looking at these:
TCB 505 one-wash 13 oz
SugarCane 1966 one-wash 14 oz
SugarCane 1947 one-wash 14.25 oz
(Technically these aren’t raws, I guess)
Does anyone have experience with any of them? Unfortunately I don’t have the opportunity to try them on, can only buy online.
There’s also the Warehouse 1001x in my price range, but I’m hesitant to order that because it’s unsanforized and am a bit afraid of sizing.
I’m probably leaning towards either the TCB or the 1966 because of the smaller 20cm leg opening, the 22cm might be too much for me, but I’m not sure!
Also, the place I’d order them offer a hemming service with a Union sewing machine. What do you suggest for inseam length? I’m ~177cm, usually wear a 75-76cm inseam for no break. I’m not sure if I’d wear these uncuffed, single or double-cuffed.

These are my 1947s, hemmed to single cuff. In my experience even one wash jeans are going to shrink a bit in the inseam over time so I’d account for that. I sometimes wish I’d either left long enough to double cuff or hemmed to No cuff.
I’d go with the wider opening just because I want to avoid a noticeable taper but it’s really personal preference. The 1966 and 505 look like great fits if that’s what you want though!
These jeans look great on you! Thanks for the fit pic.
