This is a very rare vintage Levi's 646 from the early 1970s.

You can understand its rarity when you consider it's a vintage item from about 50 years ago.

This is a model from right after the Big E, so the fading is outstanding.

I once heard from a vintage clothing store that the 646 with the number 8 on the back of the top button fades well, and it has faded beautifully, just as I was told!

The fabric is thick, and I think it has a texture that denim lovers will adore!

I wore this pair from deadstock, and it has excellent vertical fading and whiskering!

In the vintage clothing market, even the 1990s American-made 646s are sold at quite high prices.

Levi's 646 was first made in 1969, so this particular pair is an early one, only five years after its birth!

I think it's a miracle to find a 646 in such good condition with dark indigo, vertical fading, and whiskering, and in a desirable size. If you feel a connection with this once-in-a-lifetime encounter, please consider getting it!

I really don't want to let it go, but I'm selling it because I'm short on money. I would be happy if someone who will cherish it buys it.

It will go well with simple sneakers like Converse All Stars, as well as boots like Red Wing, Wesco, and White's, and sandals like Birkenstocks!

And it's a denim that makes your legs look longer!

In the summer, it will go well with band T-shirts, college T-shirts like Champion, and football T-shirts.

I think it also goes well with Champion Reverse Weave, which is a favorite of American casual style lovers!

Also, it will go perfectly with the other items I have for sale!
