Levi's Vintage Clothing

Recommended Posts

That kaihara 505 fabric is such a stubborn fader, it’s crazy. I’ve worn my to pieces and it’s like it’s not really poaaible to get them to that true light blue state all round

Apart from being inside out, the only distinctive/unique design feature I can see on this pair is the offset belt loop. I would assume these 63s are based on the LVC 55 model, which would also cover this period but I can’t tell if they have hidden rivets so may, in fact, be more 66-like.

I’m sure LVC did an inside out pair a few years back too. Anyway, they’re more gimmicky than Naked & Famous.

My 1890’s after their 3rd wash. 220 wears. 
 

these have been really fast faders, the sun has faded them more than washing! No, it must have been all that dirt and muck I rubbed into them to make them Caliico miner jeans.

insane to see how dark they were when new now.

Does anyone know what the heck I have here? I have been a fan of LVC stuff for several years now but I have nowhere near the breadth of knowledge of many of you here. Any help is greatly appreciated.

That's why I suggested a sample pair. Often the details are not totally correct.

 

edit: even less than usual LVC ;)

Thanks for the input. Sample sounds right as it's from a LVC lot I purchased from the family of someone who worked for Levi's.

fit check: S and M sizes of the type 1 jacket. I’m leaning towards the S. how much do these jackets shrink? Thoughts?

The sleeves on the S still reach to the ends of my arms with both arms outstretched as far as I can reach.

I don’t know how much they shrink and how snug/fitted you’ll want to wear it but I’d say get the M and give it a hot wash.

      Hello guys, It's my first post here. I am Denimseeker (ig: denim_seeker).
      I have been collecting vintage jackets for a while, esp. denim jackets. Feeling that the denim world deserves a better guide for Levi's denim jackets so I tried my best to make one. The guide is much more complicated than those you see on other websites (i.e. Heddel's or Long John etc) so you might need some basic understanding to read it. This guide is open for comments and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to let me know. This guide is still a work in progress and would be wonderful if everybody in the denim world can contribute.
      That being said, enjoy!

Hopefully someone here can give me an opinion regarding this Levi's. Any opinions are welcome, I do appreciated.

      I checked the Encyclopedia thread and only one Levi's link didn't give a 404 error, so here goes nothing. I should add that a lot of the center patch jeans actually aren't vintage (at least the ones I'm looking for) and date back to around 2006. I've talked with Levi's support a handful of times and got nothing out of it. I'm trying to figure out what all the center patch pairs are. I know I haven't quite figured them all out, but I've found a few, though they seem very hard to come by, and obviously aren't currently in production. I'd really like to find a pair with the white "Quality Never Goes Out of Style" center patch. Something tells me I don't have the ideal wording, and if I knew exactly what to type, I could probably find a plethora of those jeans. When I google 519's, I have to block the words extreme or skinny (add a - in front of whatever word you don't want to see in the results) or I get mostly brand new pairs of 519's. Here's what I know so far:
       
      This pair, which can be seen clearly in the first photo and on this store page (which has other photos of the same pair) appears to be 519 slim fit. However, they don't seem to be the normal 519 slim fit. One site I looked at called them "519 slim fit side adjusters". I have looked extensively over the past couple of weeks and was lucky to find that clear photo, as well as that store listing and one Ebay listing which sold a while back. On a side note, I found that 511 skinny leg (or a version, rather) seems to look the same, with the centered white patch and waist adjusters, but they too are hard to find. The 511's and 519's have a white patch that says, "Quality Never Goes Out of Style". There may be others as well.

      You may recognize these from the Moonbathing ads. They are part of the "Two Horse Brand" collection, which have a yellow and white patch and say "Two Horse Brand" on the patch. 506 and 511 look identical, while 509 has the addition of a cinch back. There might be other fit numbers I'm missing.

      Levi's Engineered has some center patch jeans as well, though I'm really trying to find more of the white patch pairs.
