It's a 501 made in 2001, but it's a 90's model, so it's listed here as an old jeans. It is a parallel import made in Mexico. Even though it was made in Mexico, there is no particular change in the specifications, etc., compared to those made in the United States at the same time. Purchased in a rigid condition, but left intact after removing the glue, the color fading of jeans changed considerably due to the introduction of open-ended spun yarns from around 1980, but due to the influence of the vintage boom of that time, ring-spun yarns seemed to return in the latter half of the 1990s, and the one introduced here is also made from ring-spun yarns.
paper patch
Compared to the U.S.A. made at the same time, the placement of the letters is the same, but only the "Made in U.S.A." part is left out. It also comes with a tear-off tag.
inner tag
On the reverse side, the number "647 0401" indicates that it was made in April 2001 at factory #647.
back pocket
The back pocket is almost square in shape and has a lot of distortion on the left and right. The angle of the arcuate stitching is deep.
top butoon
There is no significant change in the top button. Next to the top button, parallel stitching.
fly button
Button that is not a foot-long R with a pitter-patter. This is no different from the earlier and later models.
outseam
Side split stitching with a white thread on a lock sewing machine. Single stitching at the hem.
