Thank you for making this. I just got a pair of 501 shrink to fits with a blank tab a few weeks ago, and then yesterday I was making room in my dresser and found a pair of 507s with the same thing. I bought them both online so yeah I was wondering if they were fake. Now I know and it's pretty cool that I have these 1 in 10 jeans!
Thanks for the video as always man! It's great you take the time to let people know about the history of Levi's. There really isn't a whole lot of info to be found here on TH-cam about the history of Levi's. It's nice to see someone that is so into it like myself. Great job my man! Keep it up and I look forward to the next video! 👊😎
I have a pair of 511s with a blank tab and a trucker jacket also with a blank tab. Wearing them together creates an interesting combination lol since blank tabs are not too common
Finally someone who knows how long the blank tabs have been used! Kinda wished they didn't. I have a 67-70 Type 3. 70505 tab, no evidence of any care tab being ripped out, no hand warmers, single stich on the bottom button but it has that damn blank tab. If it only had the Big E, I could sell it fast for a nice price. It's too small for me otherwise I would keep it. It has that softer denim feel, I think you mentioned that in one of your other videos.
Correction: I went up and looked at 22 pairs of Levi's I have- and I have more- and 2 of them were blank. I know they weren't bought from outlet stores.
Almost return my levi 551 Z because of the blank red tag and the zipper brand Ideal instead of ykk I'm used to. Thanks for the info, it put my mind at rest
Hi, I have a pair of black Levi's with a blanc black and white tab? I only hear red blanc tabs can you tell me more?? thanks a lot for your great videos from The Netherlands
I bought 710 skinny fit jeans with blank tab written R on it. But I'm confused there is no metal tab on side pocket of that particular type. Does it means it is fake?
I just found a vintage brown tab that only had the R on it with no levis on it....does this also apply to other color tabs on jeans or just the red tab? Thank you for the informative video
Sometimes I get black Levi's which have no style number and sizes on the back patch. All the care tags are the same as what you find in modern Levi's so I don't doubt they are fake. Do they make these blank ones for the same reason? For trademark purposes?
I need help identifying a pair of Levi’s I have. They have no rivets and say with a skosh more room on the inside and still have the original purchase tags on them. They have no identification numbers or tags. Just a blue and yellow tab. Help if you see this
Hello, love your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm wondering if you can help me with my inside tag. It is missing the black imprinted style numbers and it's my only discomforting thought about this jacket being fake. All other things check out from Levi's butt tag label, tags, stitching etc. Is this jacket fake due to the missing black style number?
Great content for sure. Just a question. For pricing factor, how do rate the small e, big e and blank tab r and also in terms of rarity of all the categories? Thanks
So does that mean the blank red tag is like a rare/limited edition kind of thing? i just bought a pair with a blank red tab earlier today and i think it's kinda cool haha
Hey! Love this video, and the others you've shared. Gained a lot of knowledge and insight to the world of Levi's! I wanted to ask, since we're on the subject of Levi's tabs, I saw a pair with an upside down red tab. Does it indicate the jeans are fake? Or, was it purposefully done? Thanks so much!
Hey thanks so much! It could mean it's fake but Levi's also makes manufacturing mistakes, and at least in the past, they may still sell them as irregular in their outlet stores. You can send me some photos to lootfam1@gmail.com and I'll take a look. Thanks!
Hey, As you explained in the video, I got the same blank tab with just "R" written on it. Should I exchange it as it doesnt look that attractive even though being authentic or should i just keep it? Do you think im the lucky one to have the blank tab or should i just exchange it😅. Im confused please help
Hey! how are you? thanks for the info! but ... today i bought a levis trucker jacket with blanket lining, only two pockets (chest) and a blank label, just the ®️ but the most weird things on the jacket are a sort of details with "belt loops" whatever, can you help me to identify the model? 😰 Regards from Chile!
Hey, i just bought a new Levi´s "vintage style" trucker jacket and i saw that the E on the tab is a capital E. Are they using both now, or is this just because of the vintage style?
Hello I am new to the community and love ur vids !! I got a question that mine Levi's 646 have capital E from the orange tab and got the single digit "R" for the factory code behind the button, the letter on the zipper is "Scovill ", however the care tag part got a black batwing . So I was wondering if u can help me identify it . Thx
@@LootFam ok I picked up a mix of 15 wrangler and Levi jackets some 2 pocket some 4 but some have no laundry tags just The Levi shield and sometimes even that has no size or marking on it.
I’ve had a couple pair over the years and I remember I would only get them if they was the best fitting pair or there was no others in my size! 😊

Oh yes, thats is a tough situation. Been there myself. Everyone wants to show off the “Big E”. Thanks for watching!
The only time I ever saw a blank tab was in a Levi's outlet mall store where they sold seconds.
Correction: I went up and looked at 22 pairs of Levi's I have- and I have more- and 2 of them were blank. I know they weren't bought from outlet stores.
1 in 10 garments have a blank tab
@@kinghighpriestarchon4792On another vid it showed 1 in every 100 had the blank tab!
I start using 501 since 1997 until now very comfortable and long tyme using
Almost return my levi 551 Z because of the blank red tag and the zipper brand Ideal instead of ykk I'm used to. Thanks for the info, it put my mind at rest
Good choice!
Wow can’t believe there was an answer for this I just got a 511 slim black Levi’s and it had a blank tag but I got it in Amazon for 48
I have 501 black mexico with the blank tab
my 512 gold label has blank tab on it, i wonder why 😆.. . thanks for the info 😊😊

So if they have a red blank tab does it necessarily mean they are fake? I got a pair of 501 from a clothing store and it has a blank red tab
No, the blank red tab is not an indicator that it is fake. It's trademark protection method used by Levi's for decades. Thanks!
Hi bought a trucker jean jacket with small e on red tag only. Should i keep it or return the jacket. Thanks in advance
I just found a vintage brown tab that only had the R on it with no levis on it....does this also apply to other color tabs on jeans or just the red tab? Thank you for the informative video
It applies to all colors,
Yep!
@@LootFam thank you so much :)

Maybe black and gold. I’m not sure
Skoshmore room was a comfort stretch line Levi's ran inthe early to late 80s. Maybe a bit in the 90s. Generally not highest desired.
I have a Levis 711 skinny Antiqued with a blank tab !!!
I have a pair of 1998 505's with a blank tab are these worth anything?

If you want to send me a couple photos to lootfam1@gmail.com i can check for you!
I have a pair with red tab also has creast lines in the front I never seen before on levis jeans?
Hmmm, could be after market. But if you want you can send me some photos to lootfam1@gmail.com
Just picked up a pair of 1979 505 Levi's with blank tab. I seem to find a lot of blank tabs vintage levis!
I bet that is a beautiful pair too!
@@LootFam they are but not my size!!!
I received a Levi's shirt with black tab and only ®️ is written.
Is it authentic?
Yes
I received a jeans form Levi's with blank tab
Is it authentic?
Yes.
I see the R I buy it… it’s the most original one since no fake factory would be stupid to produce fake R ones
After checking my jeans, one has a white tag and just an R on each side of the tag. Does this mean fake?
Nope. Standard trademark protection for Levi's. Nice!
Great content for sure. Just a question. For pricing factor, how do rate the small e, big e and blank tab r and also in terms of rarity of all the categories? Thanks
True vintage Big E’s are the rarest and and the most value. Blank tabs don’t tend to add any value. Thanks for watching!
@@LootFam nawse! Thanks for the heads up. Appreciate yr time replying my comments 👍🏼
@@LootFam how about big E made in Japan? I got 2 pairs of my collection
what does a blank black tag?
Is a blank red tab Levi's fake? Help me please.
No, they are not.
So does that mean the blank red tag is like a rare/limited edition kind of thing?
i just bought a pair with a blank red tab earlier today and i think it's kinda cool haha
Yes, I’m a way. Though generally it doesn’t effect the value positively because most buyers want the Levi’s branding.
Take a look at the ones at the Levi store
I have a pair of blank gold tag 505 levis, does that mean they are rare or same as any other vintage 505?
Could you send me a picture of them? Lootfam1@gmail.com thanks!!
can you do a video about levis fenom?
I’ll put it on the list. Thanks!
Hey! Love this video, and the others you've shared. Gained a lot of knowledge and insight to the world of Levi's! I wanted to ask, since we're on the subject of Levi's tabs, I saw a pair with an upside down red tab. Does it indicate the jeans are fake? Or, was it purposefully done? Thanks so much!
Hey thanks so much! It could mean it's fake but Levi's also makes manufacturing mistakes, and at least in the past, they may still sell them as irregular in their outlet stores. You can send me some photos to lootfam1@gmail.com and I'll take a look. Thanks!
I have a 501 slim taper, the red tab is big E but was is off is the tab itself is too big from the my other levis. Do you think its fake?
If you want you can send me some photos to lootfam1@gmail.com and I can take a look for you!
It’s every 10? Or 100th pair made gets just the trade mark R?
Its about one in ten. Though exact ratios are not known.
Great stuff, man 👏
hi, can you help me identify a certain pair of levi’s?
Sure can! Email me pictures at lootfam1@gmail.com
How much are they worth
Unfortunately, generally not much more than the normal ones.
Hey, As you explained in the video, I got the same blank tab with just "R" written on it. Should I exchange it as it doesnt look that attractive even though being authentic or should i just keep it? Do you think im the lucky one to have the blank tab or should i just exchange it😅. Im confused please help
I suppose it comes down to your preference. Personally, i prefer the spell out on it, but i know folks who search for blanks.
Hey! how are you? thanks for the info! but ... today i bought a levis trucker jacket with blanket lining, only two pockets (chest) and a blank label, just the ®️
but the most weird things on the jacket are a sort of details with "belt loops"
whatever, can you help me to identify the model? 😰

Could you send me some photos to lootfam1@gmail.com?
@@LootFam Sure!
i have a blank orange tab
It's blank for the same reason as the red tab. Thanks for watching!
Hey, i just bought a new Levi´s "vintage style" trucker jacket and i saw that the E on the tab is a capital E. Are they using both now, or is this just because of the vintage style?

Thank you
Your welcome!
Subbed!! Very helpful bro thank you!
why my levi's red tab "R" is upside down ?
The R would likely be upside down on the back side of the tag. Is it upside down on both sides?
@@LootFam Just front side is upside down, back side isn't
@@kelvinli8439 Sounds like the tag was installed backwards.
My same question. I got the red tab at the back of my denim 🧢 cap. I hope levi's has a FAQ section on their website.
Excellent Video🏆🏅
I always wondered why some tabs are blank at my local Levi’s store . Thank you
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
So we basically have a 1 out of 10 jean?😃
On average, yes. Levi's doesn't seem to have been consistent with that number from era to era. But pretty close I'd say.
I don't know if I should be happy or sad, but at least it means that my pair of pants is rarer🤣
Where's the 550 and 560, ever since skinny jeans can't find them, also Levi's carpenter jeans
If some of the Levi’s vintage denim jackets don’t have laundry tags does that mean they’re fake. Thank you.
No, that would not be an indicator of authenticity. They may be older than care tags or commonly the tags were removedZ
@@LootFam ok I picked up a mix of 15 wrangler and Levi jackets some 2 pocket some 4 but some have no laundry tags just The Levi shield and sometimes even that has no size or marking on it.
@@JessJr1 If it's helpful you can send me some photos to lootfam1@gmail.com
Thank u very informative videos allah bless u
Love from India
Bro my levis shirt tag is blank...so is it original or what?
As stated in the video the blank tab does not mean it’s fake. It’s that way by levis own design. Thanks for watching!
@@LootFam yeah thanks man
I literally got a call-out today 😬
nice！
lucky 🤩
Finoo pa
Blank tab is fake or not ?
Not
