Limited Edition 1933XX ‘Tow Rope’ Jean
A limited edition 1933XX ‘Tow Rope’ jean will also accompany the Levi’s Vintage Fall collection. This style is a faithful replica which concerns the story of a broken down car and shortage of tow rope.
In March 1938 a man spotted his neighbour’s broken down car at the side of the road. He took an old pair of Levi’s jeans from the trunk, tied a leg to each vehicle and safely hauled the car to the next village.
This limited edition pair is a 1 to 1 reproduction of the original. Hand finished and hand numbered, each pair comes in a 1920’s oil can and contains the letter sent to Levi’s with the amazing story.
