See What The Oldest Pair Of Levi Jeans Known To Exist From 1890s Look Like Now

Who knew jeans tucked away 124 years ago in a trunk would someday be worth so much today? The oldest pair of Levi Strauss blue jeans known to exist are from the 1890s and in pristine condition. They are believed to have never been worn. The Levis are expected to go for $80,000, according to auctioneer Daniel Soules. The jeans also come with a Levi's guarantee referencing a dark chapter in American history. They were owned by legendary pioneer Solomon Warner who helped settle Tucson, Arizona. #InsideEdition

These look almost like replicas. Hard to believe they aren't just worn away, the natural wear on them looks amazing.

What a pleasure to see. I wish we still made things like this in the US... well-made and more expensive. It'd cure consumerism

[@heathjones9218]

Some explorer's just found some older.. down in an old mine in Arizona.. like 4 pair. Not in as good condition but believed to be pre 1870. Old known Levi's

All of that history for $80k? If I owned, I'd make sure my family held onto them for another 120 years!

They should be in a museum, not at a auction. :(

White Labor made jeans is the next step up from raw selvedge denim. Waiting for Iron Heart to start making these in 23 ounce.

I sure do love inside edition but i wish they had longer clips or even full episodes

Rick from Pawn Stars would try to lowball the guy down to 5 bucks. "Well im gonna have to pay to get them framed and the value for jeans from the 1800s just isnt what it was 5 years ago." Then they would add a little bit of cheesy comedy to it by having Chumlee put them on.

36 inch inseam was standard for these jeans. People cuffed them. He wasn’t necessarily that tall.

[@MsEliteForever]

6'6 in height and 300 pounds. Wow.

[@leonarddaneman810]

44x36 more likely 275 lbs. I was 6'6"with a 36 inseam and 38-44 waistband (changing weight) and weighed 250 lbs.

back when levi made good quality jeans

[@It_dont_Matt_er]

The fit of these look amazing, can we get this style remade 😅

[@ninney794]

There were a couple more pair found at Castle Dome Mine in Arizona by Abandoned Mine Explorer's!

[@c-iball9553]

Not the oldest known anymore. A miner in Arizona found 7 pair from 1870s not long ago!

[@wolffgang101]

I'd like to go explore Cerro Gordo for some Levi's
