Levi's 501 Red Tab from the 80s, waist size 30, with a circle R and 555 stamp, Valencia.

This is the original model of the Levi's 501 with a red tab. It features the popular button stamp with 555 on the back, and it was made in the Valencia factory. Additionally, the red tab has a circle "R" which makes it relatively rare. Based on the tag, it seems to have been produced in September 1985. The hem has been chain-stitched for alteration.

It exudes an aura that is not typical of the red tab model, with whiskers and honeycombs starting to form, giving it a very distinctive atmosphere. The color fading on the knee area has progressed, but it's not at the point where holes would develop immediately. There are some stains on the left shin area and a few faint marks on the hip pockets, but these may not be a significant concern for those who appreciate vintage clothing. The paper patch is relatively well-preserved, although there is some damage towards the edges (refer to the images).

Detailed measurements (please allow for some margin of error):
- Waist: 38cm
- Inseam: 74cm
