An Archive-Tier Collector’s Piece:
Presenting an incredibly rare, authentic mid-1950s vintage Wrangler Blue Bell 11MWZ rigid cotton denim jean. This is a true museum-grade piece of American Western workwear history, carefully preserved in a private collection for over two decades.
Historic Vintage Signifiers:
• The Label: Original cloth waistband tag features the iconic printed "Blue Bell" logo (dropped by Wrangler in 1966).
• The Pocket Stamp: Authentic circular ink "Sanforized" factory stamp is still visible on the interior pocket bag.
• The Hardware: Features the original rope-logo cursive Wrangler waist button and classic flat copper rivets.
• The Fade: Breathtaking, 100% natural mid-century indigo wear, authentic whiskering, and natural leg twist.
Condition Note:
Beautifully aged with genuine vintage character. Structurally sound with tight seams. Features standard wear, beautiful historic fraying, and a beautifully split original rear pocket leather patch that tells the true story of the garment.
Measurements (Laid Flat):
Vintage denim runs significantly smaller than modern tags due to decades of natural shrinkage. Please refer to exact flat measurements for true fit:
• Waist (measured flat across): 15" (Fits a modern unisex/men's 30" or women's 29/30)
• Inseam (crotch to cuff): 32" (Tagged 34", shrunk naturally to a perfect 32")
• Front Rise (crotch to waistband): 11"
• Hips (measured across base of fly): 20"
