Presented here is a museum-grade vintage masterpiece from 1975, Bobson Lot.48 bell-bottom jeans in pristine dark navy.
[MINT: Museum-Grade 1975 Vintage - Bobson Special Buffalo Zipper] Purchased in 1975 at 'Route 1', a legendary jeans shop in Naganobu, Tokyo. It has been carefully preserved for over 50 years, maintaining a rare, deep indigo dark navy color with no fading. Crucially, it is equipped with a custom 'Bobson Buffalo-engraved' brass zipper based on the famous USA-made 42 TALON specification. The slider and teeth show no rust or distortion. It features the unique 'C-OY 3571' tag, proving it was manufactured at Bobson's own factory in Okayama, Japan, during the dawn of pure domestic vintage jeans. It is a Lot.48 patch pocket model in pristine deadstock-class condition with an original unaltered length.
