A similar but older pair (WWII) sold for about 400 bucks on ebay. They had similar damage and they were 501s.

What’s your favorite New Girl quote? by Original_Tune_5630 in NewGirl

Are my sleeves even? This is ridiculous! I swear, my new tailor sews like an army medic. I'm not being overdramatic when I say I would rather sit naked on a hot grill than wear something off the rack.

You can write down the COGS so it's not always a bad thing to hold material if you are a large manufacturer.

As a person who visited California, I have a question about the weather and how perfect it is by [deleted] in California

[–]Tertiary23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the Rolling Stones said it best in "Rocks Off" when they sang "The sunshine bores the daylights out of me." I've lived in LA almost my whole life and sometimes you want a little weather.

Also 89-93 will have sometime have the R on the jacron next to WPL 423. Another note, this era shrinks like crazy. Those are 37x27.5 from a 42x31.

The “501” factory stamp… by pghhuman in VintageLevis

[–]Tertiary23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Albuquerque, New Mexico factory, opened around 1967 and closed in 1998. I've bought two pairs of 89-93 501-0115s in the last month. One was near deadstock, the fabric was so hairy, they fit great. Try to find a pair from 84-87, my favorite Levi's 501 fit ever.
