First post — help me choose my next pair: Sugar Cane 1947 vs Fullcount 0105XX

Hey everyone, this is my first post here!
I’m looking for some advice on my next pair of jeans. I’ve been getting more and more into Japanese repro / vintage denim, especially hairy, textured denims, WWII-era pieces, 1940s Americana and military clothing, and I’m trying to find the next pair that will really add something special to my collection.

For my next pair of jeans, I’m looking for something that feels iconic and timeless, rather than just buying another pair because it’s different.
At the moment I’m stuck between:

Sugar Cane 1947
vs.
Fullcount 0105XX

I really like both, but I’m having a hard time deciding which one makes more sense for me.
I love the look of the Sugar Cane 1947 because it feels like such a classic 1940s repro and seems like it would fit perfectly with the rest of my wardrobe. On the other hand, the Fullcount 0105XX has that wider, high-rise silhouette which would give me something a little different.

I’m around 190 cm / 85 kg (6’3”, \~187 lbs)
Μy ideal jeans waist measurement is about 88cm

My TCB Early 40s in W36 fits pretty well, but I think I’d actually prefer 1–2 cm more room in the waist.
On the other hand, my TCB 20s in W38 is quite large and honestly not very comfortable. It tends to fall down unless I wear suspenders, and if I try to keep it up with a belt I have to cinch the belt down quite a lot. So W38 in that particular cut feels like too much for me.
If there was a size w37 on TCB , would be my golden size
That’s part of why I’m hesitant about sizing the 0105XX — I don’t want a pair that is technically my size but ends up being too loose in the waist or requiring suspenders.

For those who have experience with these two models:
Which one would you choose for my build and collection?
● Sugar Cane 1947 vs Fullcount 0105XX?
● What size would you recommend?
● How different are they in terms of rise, thigh and overall silhouette?
● Which one do you think is more versatile/timeless / iconic?
● And which one would work better with things like an A-2, N-1, WWII tanker, denim jackets etc

I’m especially interested in hearing from people who have actually owned/worn either (or both).

Thanks in advance — and sorry for the long first post! 😅
