To anyone whos tried / owned both which do you prefer and why ? I know the denims supposed to be nicer on the canes. Is it true that the canes are slightly fuller throught the leg that the lvc ?

how much does "authenticity" matter to you?

the sc's are heavier weight than "the real thing"

Not really bothered about "authenticity". More concerned with the fit. I think i've heard the canes drape better as there is less taper. It would seem the canes are a little more forgiving fit wise, again though this is only what ive heard.

LVC '47's don't taper at all, however they are slimmer than sc's. I'd go for LVC's but size up 2-3 sizes, that way the legs will fit slimmer than the sc's and the waist looser.
