A beautiful, iconic pair of mid-1990s vintage denim. These are authentic, American-made Levi's 501 original button-fly jeans, manufactured in February of 1996.
This pair features the legendary 0115 factory stonewash, giving the denim an incredible natural marbling, beautiful high-and-low vertical graining texture, and classic contrast fading along the seams. Cut from rigid, heavy-duty 100% cotton, these offer that timeless high-waisted, straight-leg silhouette that holds its shape perfectly.
