Levi Strauss \u0026amp; Co.’s patent for rivetedclothing expired that same year, meaning that other companies could now alsouse rivets on clothing. To answer the coming competition, LS\u0026amp;Co. printed theinside pocket bag with information about the strength and originality of theXX overalls.1890 was the year that the 501® number was first assigned to the famous pants–likely done because the company no longer had an exclusive patent, and alsobecause it had a good-sized line of clothing by this time. It was easier for retailersto order their products by number rather than by a simple description, as hadbeen done in the past. Any product made with the highest quality materials wasgiven a lot number beginning with 5: 501® for the overall, 506 for the jacket, etc.Made with XX 9oz denim from the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company, the 501®pant was at the head of the class.","brand":"Levi's","offers":[{"title":"38 30 \/ Lightly Worn","offer_id":52896201900321,"sku":"905010119_purple_38 30_Lightly Worn","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0749\/4405\/3537\/files\/ttppc5m5r9d2jmmstnlk.jpg?v=1784043846","url":"https:\/\/secondhand.levi.com\/products\/1890-501-mens-jeans_905010119_purple","provider":"Levi's® Secondhand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
