Vintage Levi’s 646-0217 orange-tab bell-bottom jeans in faded medium-blue denim. Features a brass Talon 42 zipper, four-pocket construction and ink-stamped interior pocket bag.
Estimated late 1960s to early 1970s based on the construction, hardware and pocket-bag printing. Exact production year is not guaranteed.
IMPORTANT ALTERATION DISCLOSURE: Both lower legs have visible horizontal seams where lower denim panels were sewn/attached. These jeans have been altered/reworked; the exact alteration history and original inseam are unknown. Please review the full-length and close-up photos carefully.
LABEL/STAMP: There is no separate sewn size or care tag. The faded wash/production information is stamped directly onto the interior pocket bag, with “646 0217” visible. The stamp appears to include original size numbers 33 and 31, but the jeans currently measure approximately 32 x 28. Please purchase according to the current measurements below, not the faded stamp.

Measurements were taken by hand and may vary slightly depending on measuring method. Vintage sizing differs from modern sizing, so please compare these measurements with jeans that fit you well.
