【Product Description】

Thank you for viewing.

This is a rare **MADE IN USA** 501 from **2001**, just before the US factory closures in 2003.

Furthermore, this is a very rare example with a **"Circle R (R mark only)"** red tab. This type, where the tab only has the "R" instead of "Levi's," appears in very small numbers due to the manufacturing process and is highly valued as a collector's item.

■Details:

* Country of Manufacture: MADE IN USA (San Benito, Texas factory / Top button back 553)
* Production Month: May 2001
* Red Tab: Rare Circle R (R mark only)
* Patch: 501 W34 L32
* Condition:

What's particularly noteworthy is the **"deep indigo"** condition. While 90s-00s USA-made items are becoming scarce, you rarely find such a good condition with this much color remaining and a noticeable fuzziness, even in vintage clothing stores. This is a "true indigo" piece, perfect for those who want to create their own unique pair.

■Message:

"R mark only" red tab, plus "deep indigo" from the "final USA production period."

I confidently recommend this to those looking to resell, as well as to authentic enthusiasts seeking a lifetime piece.

Instant purchase is OK.

I hope to pass this on to someone who appreciates its value.
