PRELOVED JEANS UPCYCLED AND REWORKED
These vintage Levi's 501's have been reworked and redesigned into a pair of wide leg jeans. The reworked 501's are assembled from 2 pairs of jeans and reworked with patchwork of used denim, remnant denim pieces, waxed cloth, and cotton prints.
This is a one-off pair for men and women.
How do we do it? We start off with a pair of vintage men's 501. We disassemble the pair of 501s by hand, concentrating on the areas of stress in the crotch areas in the front and back. We redesigned the legs of these and use a second pair of jeans, remnant denim, wax cloth and print to create the new design that you have in the picture.
We then put everything back together, into a 'new' pair of wide leg jeans with all the original features and more. You can enjoy wearing your new pair for many more years.
We work on each denim individually and hence there is no repetition. They are all one of a kind.
You will agree, this is a beautiful work of art!
SIZE/FIT
They come in a range of sizes, the Reworked pair gives a comfortable easy fit around your waist and hips. Women should use your hips measurement when you order. Men should use their waist measurement.
STYLE
When you order we will ship you a pair different to the one in the picture. This is because each pair is unique and individually cut and hand assembled. So you will get the same beautiful design, superb workmanship, and a fit that is like the one in the picture. If you have a particular colour theme you are after (say you want more reds or more greens or blues, or just denim), send us a note with your order. We will be happy to oblige.
Your Reworked 501 will be shipped out 2 weeks after we receive your order.
If you have old pairs of jeans that you want us to repair and rework into this style, you can contact us through this page.
