[LEVI'S VINTAGE CLOTHING "47501-0224" 501XX 1947 Model 501 JEANS (organic cotton)]
A reprint model of 1947 when World War II ended and the materials and parts of Scenes became available again.
Details that had been simplified due to a shortage of supplies were revived, and the introduction of the two-needle sewing machine dramatically improved the accuracy of sewing.
It is called "the perfection of 5-pocket jeans" due to its appearance similar to the current model and advanced sewing technology.
denim
The fabric used in Levi's vintage clothing is made by Kaihara, a leading denim manufacturer in Japan.
This time we renewed the fabric. It will be made with organic cotton.
One of the reasons for adopting organic cotton is one of Levi's environmentally friendly product development, which is common to all developments.
It is a fabric that realistically reproduces the texture of the rough denim manufactured by Cone Mills at that time with high Japanese technology. The reissue of the 1947 501 uses denim with less fuzz. Denim woven with an old-fashioned shuttle machine is characterized by a width of about 27 to 29 inches and both ends sewn with red thread (red selvedge).
As the product is made using the fabric to the fullest extent, selvedge can be seen on the outer seam and the back of the watch pocket, creating a detail called red ear. This denim retains the original unevenness of the cotton yarn, so it is one of the attractions that the unique texture increases as you wear it.
I came to do color fading more sharply than before.
silhouette
The silhouette is a regular straight that has been adjusted slimmer than the previous generation.
The rise is not extremely deep, and the straight line gives just the right amount of room, making it simple and easy to wear. .
detail
The front consists of four buttons, one less than the current model. The top button has a V-stitch for reinforcement, which is a feature of 501 before the 1960s.
Buttons with brand name engraved, copper rivets with brand name. The watch pocket comes with a rivet that was revived after the war.
Of course, the two-needle arcuate stitch is still alive. The 1947 model is characterized by a left-right distortion.
Big E red tab without register mark. Uses a two-horse leather patch made of cowhide.
Red selvedge, commonly known as "red ear". Uses hidden rivets that do not damage furniture or tools by covering with fabric.
*According to the manufacturer's announcement, shrinkage of about 5 cm in the waist and about 8 cm in the inseam will occur.
