【Description】

Vintage denim has been at the center of the vintage clothing category ever since it was created. Although mass-produced, the texture of denim differs depending on the year of manufacture, and each piece has a completely different look depending on how it was used, which is one of the main reasons why vintage denim attracts people from all over the world.

Jeans and denim jackets are representative of such vintage denim. They can be broadly classified into workwear and lunchwear. The former are literally clothes for workers, and typical examples are coveralls and overalls. The latter is clothing for cowboys. So-called G-jans and jeans both originated as workwear, but from the 1940s onward, they became more of a ranchwear item.

Vintage denim is generally traded at higher prices for models with older production dates. In other words, identifying the manufacturing period is indispensable for finding bargains. In this book, we have compiled the points to distinguish the manufacturing period of not only the three major brands such as LEVI'S, Lee, and Wrangler, but also store brands such as Sears, J.C. Penney, and Montgomery Ward, as well as minor brands. We hope you will enjoy vintage denim even more by referring to this book, which provides easy-to-understand explanations for vintage beginners.
