1980s–1990s | Levi’s | 501 | Made in USA | Button Fly Denim Jeans – w30

Description:

Item: Original Levi’s 501 button-fly jeans in classic mid-to-dark indigo denim. Traditional straight-leg cut with red tab, arcuate back pocket stitching and original leather patch showing the 501 model designation. A strong, wearable pair that shows everything people look for in proper vintage Levi’s.

Era: Late 1980s to early 1990s

Brand: Levi’s

Condition: Very good vintage condition. Even wear throughout with no major damage. Denim remains structurally strong, seams are intact and the colour still has good depth. Honest use that adds character and is exactly why people buy original 501s.

Provenance Note:
The 501 is the backbone of Levi’s history, and examples from this era sit in the sweet spot between old-world build quality and everyday wearability. These are not fashion reproductions but real working garments that have softened and shaped through use. For anyone building a serious denim wardrobe, pairs like this are the foundation pieces.

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.
