This isnt exactly relatable but you dont know how many times I am have seen a pair of Big E Levis that have been turned into cut offs for no reason at all (Never Nude). Other than being as rich as these people who destroyed a Kiton SC. I dont get it, but to each their own. SH

Back when Big E was the thing so were cutoff jeans. And in all my years thrifting I’ve never come across a pair of vintage jeans and maybe only one or two pairs worth picking up.

I dont fully agree with that. I am talking about 50s or before. I feel like 70s-80s is more of a cut off time line. But to be fair I have found Big Es multiple times at the Bins (outlets) or Rag houses. So I shouldnt expect pristine at those type of places.

Trying to get a legit check for a Hermès scarf but unable to post a pic due to file size. Can anyone point me in the right direction for help?
Thanks

Gentlemen how old are these and are they worth picking up .
Lightning zip and robot says 31.
I know it’s not the year but could I’d them .
My guess is 70's to early 80's. the Lee tag has both the copyright symbol and MR, which didn't happen until the 1970's.
