    Wrangler still makes cheap, basic jeans out of thicker denim.

    Anyone else think $50 is a lot for a pair of 501s?

    I have Levi’s that are about 25 years old that I still wear. (Of course, I went through a few years when I was too fat to wear them, so they just hung in the closet till I lost the weight. But, they are that old, and I do wear them now.)

      I vaguely remember reading about a 501 collectors market and how vintage Levis went for a pretty penny. Im guessing it wasn’t 1995 vintage, though.
