It has the vertical fading characteristic of the early 66, whiskers, and a slight honeycomb pattern. The dark fabric has good color variation and a great atmosphere. Size: W30 L31 Flat measurements (approximate), please allow for some error: Waist: 38cm x 2 Inseam: 70cm Rise: 29cm Thigh (at inseam): 29cm Hem width: 19cm Total length (side): 97cm There are repairs on the inseam and the seat (carefully and neatly repaired). In my opinion, they are not very noticeable. There are also other minor damages with repairs and patching. The major damages have been repaired or patched, so you can wear them immediately. In addition, there are the usual wear and tear of vintage denim, such as scuffs, scratches, wear spots, small holes, broken or missing stitches, dirt, and stains, but I think it's acceptable for those who are used to vintage denim. *Please be sure to check and judge from the images. *Please refrain from purchasing if you are nervous or do not understand vintage denim. *Because of amateur inspection, there may be oversights.
