On Sale April 15th at vente-privee: Levi’s Vintage Clothing
They’re back.
vente-privee is featuring Levi’s Vintage Clothing tomorrow, including their usual big discounts on LVC’s much-loved 501s. Faithful reproductions of archival versions of the iconic jeans, LVC has them made in the USA with selvage denim from North Carolina’s Cone Mills.The sale tomorrow has them as low as $65, quite a discount off the retail price of $260 or so.
I picked up a few different pairs to try the different fits during one of vente-privee’s previous sales. While the 1947 button-fly version seems to get all the love, I found I preferred the 1954 501z—the first 501 with a zip-fly, it features a slimmer fit with a higher rise and a tapered leg opening. Priced at $89 during tomorrow’s sale, it’s easily my favorite pair of jeans right now, and I usually wear it a few times a week.
I’ve been given access to the line sheet for tomorrow’s sale, and it’s absolutely massive: I count over 200 different items, all menswear. Not surprisingly, most if it is jeans, chinos, and denim jackets, including what looks like a raw denim trucker for $75. Beyond that, the pieces I’m eying include the blue suede jacket ($245, from $985), a red wool Harrington ($135, from $450), sweatshirts (starting at $49, from $165), a shawl cardigan ($65, from $285), and a denim duffle ($45, from $179).
