Help! Mysterious Gap/Levis hybrid jeans?
Hi all,
Hoping someone can help me identify these jeans I found at a thrift a few weeks ago. The tag (inside the waistband) says Gap but there are no other identifying features. I’ve included a photo of the little tag by the pocket, which seems (?) to indicate these are actually Levi’s. I know Gap sold Levi’s for a while early on — wondering if these could be a first run of Gap jeans using Levi’s production process?
Any help is much appreciated. I’m planning to wear them, but figured I should first make sure they’re not “special” from a vintage perspective.
When I put the number (on the small tag) into Google it came up with Levi’s — very possible it’s wrong. I was just trying to think of potential explanations for the unusual Gap waistband tag.
Assuming they are Gap, I’d love to figure out what era they’re from.
