Levi´s® Vintage Clothing 1944 s501xx Jeans Rigid
During World War II, to comply with wartime rationing requirements, Levi
Strauss & Co. simplified the features of the 501. To save metal,
fabric and thread for the war effort, the cinch back was removed, along
with the watch pocket rivets and crotch rivets. What's more, the
trademark arcuate stitching design was no longer sewn on, but instead
painted on by hand. Dye rationing meant that the heavy-duty 10oz red ID
line shrink to fitt xx denim used in 1944 was a softer shade of indigo,
offset by the one sided Caital E red tab introduced in 1936.
The jean was riveted in a mixture of plain and stamped metal, and the
LS&Co. logo no longer appeared on the fly buttons. Instead, the
waistband button was engraved with a symbol of peace in the form of a
laurel leaf. The laurel leaf is widely used to symbolize the triumph of
the human spirit.
