- I realized after I shot that my camera was smudged smh we’re still running it tho.
Pretty self explanatory just wanted to give people a guide for what pair of Levi’s is the best for them given budget, accessibility & quality.

I have been wearing Levi's 501s since the late 1960s and have a very large collection. I think the 501 jeans made between 1994-1999 are the very best and what I wear 90% of the time. During that period Levi's used the best heavy cotton denim, had the best fit for men, and were more consistent than earlier 501s due to automated rather than hand sewing. I also have vintage redline 501 jeans, one still new with tags, but I never wear them because they are too valuable being dark with little or no distressing. I definitely wouldn't pay a lot of money for a beat up pair of redline jeans when I could have a reasonably priced 1994-1999 pair of vintage 501 jeans. The very best 1994-1999 501s were the shrink-to-fits which can be identified by "501xx" (lowercase xx, not capital XX) instead of "501" on the waist tag.
What sizes do you have by any chance would you sell any?
Introduces y2k-modern Levi’s “If you want to get into like vintage denim I would say not to buy these cause they’re just not vintage” 😭😂 had me laughin
Just scored a pair of Made in USA selvedge levi 505s for like $45, pretty decent vintage fades too.. you saved my ass to say the least. I'm big into raw denim but when it comes to Levis I'm completely lost. I'd also recommend Sugar Canes like you said and TCB denim for guys like me who dig the 501 style but can't afford the super well-favored ones. You end up saving money tbh and there's plenty of people in that community that'll help you figure out sizing and cost per wear to make the right choice.
Aye another 2 days of Alex let’s go
i'm frm asia..i have been collecting levis mostly 501 for the past 5-6 yrs..i have about 100 pair of pre 80s n 90s..a dozen pair of redline from the 70s..and few pair of big e from the 60s (501 n 502 cut )..recently i manage to get the early 60s model of 551z, there a few repair but still in good condition..

@@alexclark69420 Nope, on my ass and it's nice!
should do a rose bowl vlog
Great video! Keep making these bangers.
I’m the only one that want your Kobain shirt?😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
im having the hardest time finding a pair of 501s that are priced well.
What about type III Big Es? They’re the most common jacket to find, but also, from my experience, the one with the most variations over time. Very difficult for me to pin down the exact dates on them, and also prices
Great vid! Keep at it
Would doing art on these jeans devalue the jeans
More videos letsss gooo
I recently started looking at you're channel.
I'm japanese.
Where do I buy red lines levis 501? Is there something beside grailed and eBay ?
Vintage flea markets tend to have them or vintage Instagram pages
try depop, poshmark, mercari, even etsy. also secondhand sites like thredup and vinted
Carousell if you're in the SEA region
love the videos, keep them up
Have a pair Big E Tag but made in egypt? I think by the little inside tag it's CW-0119 which I understand is cut week of 2019 but just not sure why it has the Big E Levis Tag and the Leather patch says Lot 512...any thoughts on that? Thanks
