【LEVI'S "1st" 506XX and "2nd" 507XX】Representative Of Vintage Denim Jackets
LEVIS, the undisputed king of vintage denim.
This time, we would like to introduce some precious vintage denim from LEVI'S.
The first is the 506XX, known as the "1st".
The origin of the name "506XX" is said to come from the fact that denim jackets manufactured before 1917 have a lot number. The jacket was called 506XX. The jacket was named 506XX, and its production continued until around 1947 as the jacket for the king of denim pants, the 501XX.
Lot.507XX", also known as "2nd", was born in 1952 as an improved version of 506XX "1st/First". It was the next model after the 506XX "1st/First", but the major difference was that the first type had single-sided flap pockets, while the second type had double-sided flap pockets. The main difference is that the second type has two side flap pockets, whereas the first type had one side flap pocket. Furthermore, the cinch back has been changed to side adjusters, and the jacket has evolved into a more functional work jacket.
We carry many more vintage Levi's in addition to the items introduced here. We have not only jackets but also pants, so please take a look.
