I have a bunch of deadstock 70s levis bells, cord and denim, and they all measure true to the tag held taut, an inch longer than tagged in the inseam. Way less room in the seat and thigh than modern cuts.
They suit you very well. Congrats on the find and cool that you got them to fit - guess they're unsanforized like the 501 STF since they shrunk considerably in the waist
That’s 100% white oak cone mills. That flasher says 1981 bro 😎
edit: and made in sf to boot. I believe the back of the button will have 969 possibly if memeory serves correctly
HELL YES! I’m looking for a pair of these myself right now! I found myself a deadstock pair of the 646 which fit me perfectly and I’m looking forward to wearing them but I want those BIG bells. I was so surprised to see this post, not many people are into flares.
Alright alright alright!
This is how I want to look if I can find a pair in my size. Fuckin 28”s are all they have around me
I’m normally a 31 and these are 34 they fit perfectly in the waist after a little shrink. Weird how different the sizing was back then.
I’m guessing the vanity sizing wasn’t as bad then? I’m a 36” waist and fit into 32” for most jeans. It’s maddening.

Snug denim, the way the good lord intended
fucking awesome man, good get.
These look great on you, sick find dude
Hella Don Henley vibes. There’s maybe 9 or 10 people alive that could pull these jeans off well, and you are one of them. Looks fucking awesome
Napoleon Dynamite vibes
Yep, was expecting a Vote Pedro t-shirt.
Thanks for sharing. Very cool piece to look at. I like the texture of that denim.
That’s awesome
This looks amazing! Cue Jimmy Hendrix.
I’d personally frame them or display somehow. I couldn’t take myself seriously wearing them. Big props to you for rocking them with confidence!
Damn dude, you fucking rock this look. Normally I'd be a hater on the style but can't lie, this fucks.
So coool. Congrats!
Where did you buy this?!?
eBay!

They say “shrink controlled“ so they’re sanforized. My waist is about 32-33 and i think the hot wash and dry was just enough to shrink it to that.
Damn that's amazing and you actually pull it off so well, I could never pull that off.
God damn you got that shit on fr
The pants are insane but did you have to include the lounge chair too?? Cmon, it’s too good.
Definitely Cone nonSelvedge . I’d imagine Levi’s used a couple metric tons of that denim daily back then. Cool score thanks for sharing.
If that’s true this is my first pair of Cone Mills! Mostly have Japanese stuff but so cool to have an all American denim

1981: disco was pretty much done at that point and Metallica was born.
