Sugar Cane denim jackets

Sugar Cane is a Japanese denim brand with a following among heritage denim fans. The jackets people search for include the Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3 denim jackets, the 1953 Type II in 14.25oz denim, the aged version and the 1962 model. This page helps you compare Sugar Cane denim jackets across UK retailers and then buy from the retailer you choose. We do not sell anything ourselves, so we focus on fit, fabric weight and ageing.

Choosing a Sugar Cane Type 2 denim jacket

Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3 refer to classic denim jacket patterns, each with a slightly different cut, pocket layout and waist detail. Heavier denim, such as 14.25oz, feels stiff at first and softens with wear. Check the sleeve length and the shoulder fit, since raw denim can shrink after the first wash. To compare other makers, browse jacket and coat brands A-Z. A snug, structured fit is typical of heritage styles.

Sugar Cane denim jackets in casual outfits

A denim jacket goes with almost everything. Wear it over a plain tee with dark or light jeans, or over a shirt and chinos. Pair it with boots or classic sneakers. For a British casual comparison, look at Superdry jackets. Raw denim will fade, so wear patterns develop over time, and every jacket ends up looking a little different.

Looking after a Sugar Cane denim jacket

Heavy denim rewards patience. If you want to keep contrast, wash it rarely and cool, inside out, and hang to dry. Aged versions are pre-faded, so they need less attention. Avoid tumble drying, which can shrink the cotton. Spot clean marks and hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger, so the collar and shoulders keep their shape.
