I went to the official shop and bought this last year. Made in Mexico. It's a men's item, but I think women can wear it too. Also, I recommend it to people who ride motorcycles! I've only tried it on once, and honestly, it's in really great condition! You can also break it in yourself. I haven't washed it or anything, so it's been stored and is like new. When you think of Levi's, you think of the 501, and it's rare to find a new black pair. I'm open to price negotiations, so please comment!
