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

Description:

Item: Original Levi’s 501 jeans in a deep red denim, featuring the classic straight-leg cut, button fly, and five-pocket construction. A striking colourway that elevates the timeless 501 silhouette and gives it a far rarer, more fashion-forward edge than standard blue denim.

Era: 1980s–1990s.

Brand: Levi’s.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition. Colour remains rich and even, with no thinning to the fabric or structural issues. Light, honest wear only, exactly what collectors look for in original coloured denim.

Provenance Note:
Coloured 501s were produced in far smaller numbers than standard blue denim and are increasingly difficult to find in strong condition. USA-made examples from this period represent the final era of true domestic Levi’s production. This pair combines the heritage of classic 501s with a bold red tone that feels both archival and contemporary, making them highly desirable for collectors and stylists alike.

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.

Buying true vintage clothing:

Returns:

We are a micro business and sadly cannot cover the cost of returns.

We accept refunds within 14 days of the item arriving with you if you are in the UK and 30 days for Europe and International.
