Loved my shrink to fit in the late70's and 80's!Shopped at a chain in Houston called,"The County Seat",! loved the fit and the cut ton closures! Now, the younger generation are discovering them!

[@JamesHerlihy]

love it!

[@kbsyoutube3304]

Vintage Levi’s are the best!!! The quality of the denim is so sturdy. I have a very nice collection at this point.

[@JamesHerlihy]

Love them!

i just got a pair of orslow 107s, which are like a more premium reproduction of 1960s 501s with the slimmer leg (I think that it's the 60s version at least, someone else would know better). More expensive than just plain Levi's, but their fit and finish really does it for me. You might like their 105s if you like a looser fit.

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thanks for the recommendation! I want a pair of orslow fatigue pants.

Very good video !! I've learnt a few things from you . About 90% of my jeans are 501s

[@JamesHerlihy]

It’s a great pant. Thank you for sending the love

[@Neotank22000]

I was hoping you'd try em on, nice find.

[@JamesHerlihy]

I did in the pick up videos from that month check it out!

[@Neotank22000]

@@JamesHerlihy cool! Will do.!

[@Siggy_Sour]

look great on you bro!

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thank you!

[@pokjaqq]

I saw your tag and i believe your jeans is from mei 87.. 05/7 on the tag.. 👍🏼

[@JamesHerlihy]

Thank you!

[@NGS93]

Nice! What year are these from? What is the rise on this vintage 505? Looking to get a pair myself!

[@JamesHerlihy]

I think they are from 1988. I'm not sure the rise

[@AnnapolisGirly]

My friend gave me 8 pairs of his old Levi’s. I’m researching but need help! All 31 x 31. He’s 65 and stayed the same size from high school, but he thinks he bought them in the 80s or 90s. It’s hard as a woman to find good vintage Levi’s. Vanity sizing is real!

[@JamesHerlihy]

I feel that! There a bunch of amazing websites to use. Also check out loot fam on KZbin he's great.

[@davidb6927]

Please don't cuff them if they aren't selvedge

[@arnoldorodriguez8015]

What color is those jean light stonewash o no

[@JamesHerlihy]

I think they were just regular blue pair but they are sold and just have been washed a bunch

[@MiLLz830]

What length did you get and how tall ru

[@JamesHerlihy]

I'm 5,8 and I believe these are a 29. They are vintage so I didn't have much of a choice regarding length

[@junjie8000]

👍🇵🇭

[@SuperPussyFinger]

The quality of Levi’s in 1987 was at rock bottom.

[@JamesHerlihy]

Why do you say that?
