Browse all Re/Done jeans →80s Levi's 501 -#1137
The verdict
Deadstock 501 for purists; price reflects sourcing and vintage rarity, not fresh construction.
Fit
Iconic 501 fit from the 80s—full through the thigh, straight leg, mid rise. Size down one if accustomed to modern skinny cuts.
Quality
Original Levi's construction from the 80s, likely heavier and more durable than modern production. Dye quality and edge-finishing are period-authentic.
Is the price fair?
At $425, you're paying a premium for deadstock and curation. A new 501 costs half this; this price rewards collectors valuing authenticity.
Best for
Vintage Levi's enthusiasts seeking specific original 501 washes and patina impossible to replicate in new jeans.
Care
Wash sparingly in cool water to preserve the original dye and avoid accelerated fading.
