Description:
Item: Vintage denim flares by JCPenney, produced in a deep indigo denim with a pronounced wide flare through the leg. Classic five-pocket construction with robust stitching, high rise, and clean back pocket profile. The cut is pure 1970s: long, deliberate, and built to sit properly on the shoe rather than stack.
Era: 1970s
Brand: JCPenney
Condition: Very good vintage condition with light, even wear throughout. Denim remains dark and structurally strong, with subtle softening from age and use rather than heavy fading or damage. No major flaws noted.
Provenance Note: JCPenney denim from this period was mass-market but well made, intended for daily wear rather than trend cycles. These flares weren’t novelty pieces; they were everyday trousers worn until they shaped to the body. Survivors like this are increasingly scarce in uncut, wearable condition, and retain their appeal precisely because the wear reflects real use rather than artificial ageing.

Condition Notes:
Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a story, and we cannot guarantee any item will be totally free of marks / damage but anything we think of note will be mentioned. Furthermore, a lot of vintage items gain character because of wear and tear. Buying a true vintage item is not the same as buying new and is not to be confused with second-hand clothing.
We have also tried to accurately depict each garment using a photography setup with over 90% true to life accuracy.
We do not take photos of inside the garment.
Sizing Notes:
Please take the time to measure up yourself and match to the measurements noted, the way you want the item to fit. We are only a micro business and unable to cover the costs of returns.
