Hand Warmer Pockets: Yes (mid 80 – present)
The first important and easy way to determine the difference in the period is looking if the jacket has two hand warmer pockets. If they are there then it’s from the mid-1980 until the present. In this period, Levi’s has produced a lot of colours and stonewashes. The jackets have four pockets and a small e tab.
Hand Warmer Pockets: No (71 – mid-80)
If your jacket doesn’t feature hand warmer pockets but still has the small e red tab it’s dating from 71 till mid-80s. To define the right period, there are subtle differences of the stitching adjacent to the bottom buttonhole.
Double row stitching: Yes (71 – mid-80)
If your jacket has a double row stitching adjacent to the buttonhole and only two chest pockets, then it’s from the same period, 71 till mid-80s.MAKE SURE THE DENIM JACKET IS NOT A REPLICA!
Some jackets may appear to be older than they actually are. This guide is only valid for ‘original’ vintage jackets, and therefore not replicas such as Levi’s Vintage Clothing jackets. Take a look at the care label inside the jacket. If it has one then the earliest production date is the mid-70s when Levi’s started using care labels instead of prints.
Single row stitching: No (mid 60 – 71)
If you found a jacket, like I did, with a single row stitching, no hand warmer pockets an a small e red tab on the chest pocket, then your jacket is very likely from the period mid 60 – 71. For a difference between the two stitches have a look at the pictures.
