How To Identify Vintage Levi's Bellbottoms (646, 684, more)

[@_The_Worst_]

Gonna try an get me a pair👖sometime...🤘🏼💯✔️

[@mseg7790]

Good point on referencing the care tag code with button stamp to make sense of all the numbers. Is the date code always next to factory code?

[@LootFam]

It’s not always. There are exceptions, but as a general guide its often adjacent to the factory code. Even if it’s not, its helpful to be able to eliminate one of the number sets on the tag.

I can't find any info on Levis orange tag jeans with a boyscout patch on the back pocket. Are they authentic Levi's? Thanks so much for any info!

[@LootFam]

Hmm, if you wanna you can send me some photos to [e-mail] ill take a look. Thanks!

[@helenmccracken929]

Dude! Send me your T-shirt! Now! That is literally freaking the perfect thing as a fashion designer should wear in my native plant garden during these garden parties that I have LOL

[@LootFam]

Haha! It’s one of my favorites. But I could be convinced! I have seen others out there.

[@AlWood-t7o]

Hi🙂 You seem to be the guy to ask. Is there anyway you can help me identify a pair of Levi's 646 light brown corduroy I purchased. No patch on back, no usual stitching around pockets. White label on side of pocket. Would these be genuine? ✌️

[@LootFam]

Sure! Send some photos to [e-mail]

[@95ern]

What’s are the Levi’s 784 I found a pair!

[@LootFam]

That would be the student size! Awesome!

Hey i have a oair of 685 bell bottoms with the code p44 which i think means it was made in Pakistan. However i can't find any info of these jeans anywhere do u know why or are these jeans not real?

[@LootFam]

Could you send me some photos to [e-mail]?

[@kobe5938]

So if the date code on my jeans says 10 9 , does that mean the pants are from 89 or 79? It also has the Levi’s zipper

[@ChamporadoSucker1769]

Very nice video,you forgot to mention the belt loops of a 646,it has 7 than the usual 5😉👍👍👍

[@danh.pacivik7423]

i got an 646 that has 520 stamp and date code that is 6 2 520 so i assume it's 1982 but the zipper is talon so i'm a bit confused

[@LootFam]

Hey! There are a few rare instances where a three digit date code was used prior to 1981 and there are a few instances where a generic zipper was used after 1980. If you'd like you can send photos to [e-mail] and I can help sort it out! thanks!

[@jonahkarti]

hey do you know anything about the levi 663 orange tab bell bottoms??

[@LootFam]

I believe, and i may need to double check myself, but i think thats a non denim bell bottom. Or maybe a stretch blend?

[@themessybunmafia]

Just sent you an email with lots of pics! I feel like you live in my head this month! Thank you for all of these great videos, Josh!

[@Alexmlelms33]

High waisted bellbottoms under $100 are impossible to find now

[@nathanwenz921]

awesome video as always, very informative! i’ve been loving vintage levis bell bottoms lately and picking up a few pairs

[@LootFam]

Very nice!

[@scaleartsg]

cool history!

[@dwt3012]

How rare are 584’s?

[@LootFam]

The 90s big bell version is pretty rare. There is a modern flare called the 584 that isn’t near as rare.

[@DJhutcherson]

I bought a "new with tags" pair of 584's on ebay for $75 around 20 years ago, and they always looked to have been from the early 80's to me...

[@GarfieldAtLasganaParty]

Ahh I love bell bottoms Ty bro

[@LootFam]

My pleasure! Thanks for watching!

[@mseg7790]

Excellent content 👌 thank you

[@beastbee0118]

Why don’t they make men’s bell bottoms anymore????!!

[@Bstonz85]

They kind of do. The Levi’s 517 and 527. Bootcut and slim boot cut.

[@DJhutcherson]

Bell bottoms for guys actually did make a very brief appearance 20 years ago around 2003/2004. Levi's came out with the 563 model, which was a flare jean for guys. Abercrombie also made a flare leg jean for guys in 2003. Apparently the style just didn't catch on at the time.

[@S4MHAIN_YT]

Considering everything is gay now it is weird

[@scottc77]

They do, check out Madcap England, they not only make bell bottoms but they actually make them in England, I have 6 or 7 pairs in denim and a pair of corduroy
