Great review of the jeans! If you ever buy a new pair of LVC's maybe make a video detailing the transformation over time of the jeans? I have a a pair of the 1955s and since they are a lot newer they look nothing like the pair you have! Good to know what it may look like in time comes. I always see youtubers show the pair but never the fade process over time. Maybe you could make some really content with it!
Just picked up this same model today but from 2008, only washed once, and they are my favorite jeans so far. Did you follow the instructions on tag in terms of washing them for a temperature 40 degrees and hang dry or tumble dry on low? I ask because I would like to have your fades years from now 😊 Thank you for making this video it helped ID them and inspire!
those 44's fit u perfect. i have the cone 1966 soaked once but have stored them away as cone is hard to get. and a brand new 1947 japanese fabric which i have yet to soak which i am planning to do on a hot sunny day to get maximum shrink after i hang dry on a sunny day. Did you soak them 44 or are you wearing them raw.
I had a pair of he 55s in the 90s. Only available with a 40 inch leg at that time They did not shrink as much as I anticipated. I didn’t like the boxy cut at the time but would love them now.
I love the 1955 501s I have three of em 2 made in Japan and 1 made in the USA . The weird thing is my USA ones don’t have a V stitch on the top button . Do you have any idea why this may be ?
Salvage is trash..selvage is a seam. A proper sewn garment has finished selvages to keep it from fraying. That is the first thing you learn in a sewing class in high school after you took all your grade school sewing classes
Good t explainsion about LVC..love Levi's...😎🤠👍👍

So beautiful. Never knew about the hidden rivets

Who would have thought there is so much to a pair of Levi jeans. Is there money in these old jeans.
Those are vintage fades. And prefer fades like this vs high contrast which looks manufactured.

Showing off the selvedge seam is the 'whole point' for tryers like yourself.
