Chemin De Fer Jeans

[Letitia Lees]

Hello VFG!

I am struggling for item specifics, with this pair of Chemin De Fer jeans.

- YKK zipper
- RN51971 (60's/70's?)

When looking online, I am yet to find a pair with the double C on the back pocket.

Any help is greatly appreciated !

Hi!
These look later 70s like 79-81 to me, the straighter legs and higher rise. The label doesn't really change until mid 80s. There were many different variations of back pocket stitching as you know, sort of like a fingerprint, so you might never find a duplicate.
Details like lace-up, front to back zippers, fancy snaps etc are what collectors look for in Chemin de Fer denim.
