Browse all Re/Done jeans →Vintage 80s Buckle Back Selvedge Levi's - #1593
The verdict
Buy if you value archive denim with documented provenance; expect a premium for rarity and Re/Done's curation rather than construction.
Fit
Vintage 80s silhouettes typically have a higher rise and roomier thigh than contemporary jeans; Re/Done's vintage pieces are sold as-is, so fit varies by individual item. Size checking on their site is essential.
Quality
Re/Done's vintage sourcing and selvedge quality depend entirely on the original 1980s Levi's standard, which was solid; however, wear patterns and age mean durability is already baked into the piece's history.
Is the price fair?
At $895, this is pure vintage premium—brand tax for Re/Done's curation and rarity, not new production value. Fair for collectors; steep for everyday wear.
Best for
Vintage denim enthusiasts and collectors who value documented archive pieces and the story behind a specific pair more than cost-per-wear practicality.
Care
Treat as a delicate archive piece; minimal washing, spot-clean when possible, and avoid heavy agitation to preserve the existing patina and original construction.
