Cool Stories | late 1930s Buckle Back 501 Jeans

These jeans belonged to my uncle who was killed in WWII (if you know the book, Unbroken, he was one of the countless young airmen who never made it out of pilot training).  He was very tiny and slender and it’s possible that these jeans belonged to him as a young man but I believe he was around 14, or 1938, when he wore these.  You can tell from the fading on the bottom of the legs that he turned the bottom of the jeans up to make cuffs; the jeans were probably too long for him.”

These jeans are just some of my grandmother’s “treasures”, momentos of her son.  My grandmother died in 1988, my uncle in 1944, and it seemed like maybe it was time to part with them, especially as any proceeds from this auction will be going towards repairs on my grandmother’s house.”
