LEVIS THE ORIGINAL | THE WORLD’S OLDEST JEANS

Two weeks ago, I witnessed the showcase of the world’s oldest pair of jeans. The event held by Levis was at Bucklers Canteen at Bondi. There were four security guards guarding these historical pieces and were introduced by Levi’s ‘Queen of the Archives’ Lynn Downey. The oldest pair of jeans as held above was 130 years old and were believed to be a cow boys jeans. They didn't look as old or grungy as I had expected, except the tag which was a bit worn down. Also during the night, a pair of women's jeans in a "woodstock" style were showcased as well.
