Generally speaking, Levi's 501® jeans from the 80's to around 92/93 had higher placed back pockets. It's surprising that most people don't mention that aspect as it does make an aesthetic difference when wearing them. I believe that the Capital E Levi's from the 50's through to the early 70's did have lower placed pockets, and for some reason, the designers and/or quality control at Levi's® Strauss Co. decided it was a good idea to place the back pockets lower again. ¿ Blame it on the pant sagging slouch craze of the 90's ? Who knows.

Haha hit me up bro! Deleted Facebook, but still on the gram.

I have 2 pair that I know I’ve had for at least 32 yrs. I’ve had them packed for 25 yrs.

Hey there! I recently bought two vintage corduroy Levi’s jackets, but they don’t have care tags. Both from the 70s.

Thank you for the information good video

Aweosme videos very helpful

I have a pair where the back patch is stamped blue instead of red. Different type of stitching on the outside seam.

Hi I bought a vintage Levi’s 501XX skirt from NYC years ago. How can I date please. The care tab is different from others you’ve shown. Many thanks Stevie

This video was helpful, thanks! Does a pair of big E orange tab Levi's mean they're vintage? The pair I found today at the bins is made in the USA, has a single nylon or fabric tag (not paper) and doesn't have a back patch. Thoughts?

Hey Alana! Could you send me a couple pictures of the jeans? Lootfam1@gmail.com Generally, pair of orange tab Big E jeans would be from the early 70s, but I'd like to confirm visually. Levi's did briefly rerelease the orange tab line in the 2000 teens, but very low runs.

I also would like to know if another pair I have are vintage. It's 501 sand - although it could be called beige - made in the UK. 100% cotton with a little e on the red tab. The label could be leather or card stock with red image and black lettering for style and size.

I have a pair of Levi’s that say ls&co on a leather patch’s that are from the 90s and I can’t find anything about them they also have a white tab and they are baggy fit

I have a pair of 505 with the red tab that says Levi's ®, which is normal, but what about written on the other side? If yes, okay. But what about upside down?

I have a pair of black 514 w28 x l28 size 16REG. The label is black as well with red writing for style, size, width and length. They are very slim so I don't think there would be a market for it if I was to sell them. Do you have any idea? Thank you

There are a couple possibilities. One is that they are a "rodeo" promo. These were generally oversized and had a large big red tab on the back pocket. The other is that they could be fake. If you have photos you can send them to lootfam1@gmail.com. Thanks!

hey there, do you know the difference between the 550 and 551? i’ve been trying to figure this out forever lol

@LootFam

2 жыл бұрын

Very good question. As far as i can tell the 551 was a plus size version of the 550. The cuts are nearly the same but I personally never find the 551 in a size small size. Often times the care tag still states that the lot number is 550 even though the patch and the front of the tag says 551.

I have a pair of 1970's women's Levi's with the two horses (red stitching) on one hip pocket and the "bat wing" on the other pocket. I can't find out anything about them!?

I'm actually not certain. I've seen these are UK levis but haven't ever been able to determine for certain what it means. My inclination is that it's a part of the material code, but it seems the it's fairly unique to Uk and maybe some other EU versions.

whats up so you said the capital e was changed to a lower cse e but did the double side tag printing begin at the same time because my dad has a pair of 502 s that have the levis print on the redtag with capital e on both sides of the tag, what does that indicate

@LootFam

The double side printing started a few decade prior to that change. Your dad's jeans are typical of the levis production standards during the 502 era.

A single R is in every 1 in 10 levis tabs. This has been that way for nearly 100 years. We’d need to use other methods to determine it’s age.
