The edit · Leather Jackets

A pre-owned leather jacket in denim, from the 1970s. A leather jacket is the rare piece that looks better the longer you own it. Vintage ones arrive already broken in, the collar softened and the cuffs scuffed in the best way.

The jean that named a category.

Founded in San Francisco in 1853 by Levi Strauss, who patented riveted denim work trousers with Jacob Davis in 1873. The 501 is the original blue jean.

Vintage Levi's are collected by the fade, the era and the factory. Big E red tabs, selvedge and pre-1971 details are the grail markers, and Japanese collectors led the way.

What to look for

The red tab, big E versus small e, dates it, as does the selvedge edge and the care label. Fades made by a real body, not a factory, are worth the most.

Weight is everything. A dense, supple hide that's already broken in will outlast anything new, so check the lining seams and the zip teeth.
