Up for grabs is a rare, pristine time-capsule piece of authentic mid-2000s UK streetwear history. These vintage ETO Jeans 9901 cargo shorts feature striking electric blue heavy contrast stitching against a deep, crisp black coated denim fabric.
Pristine Deadstock Condition: These shorts are in immaculate, unworn condition. As visible in the close-up photos, the vibrant blue embroidery and the triple-line stitching across the lower hems are entirely perfect with no fuzzing, rubbing, or loose threads. The coated black fabric is stiff and deep with zero edge wear or wash-fading. Branded metal buttons, pocket rivets, and the utility D-ring show no scratches. The internal pocket linings feature the iconic ETO graphic bull print, which is entirely crisp and unfaded, proving they have never been laundered.
Premium Material & Fabric Finish:
Crafted from a heavy-duty 85% Cotton, 15% Polyester blend. The polyester gives the denim a highly unique, semi-shiny coated/waxed texture that catches the light brilliantly while maintaining a rigid, authentic Y2K skate structure. The internal tag notes that dark denim may bleed, confirming the rich, unwashed state of the dark dye.
Sizing & Important Note on Waistband:
The internal tag reads "MB" for Medium Boy. Due to the baggy Y2K skate aesthetic, these fit beautifully as a fixed 26-inch waist or can be worn by women looking for a baggy, low-rise early 2000s look.
Please Note: The interior waistband features waist-adjuster buttons on both sides, but the internal adjustable elastic band is not present inside the fabric channel. The shorts function perfectly as a fixed 13" flat (26" total) waist.
