These jeans was made by Levi's back in the mid 1950s and it's part of the so-called "Denim family" collection and they are part of the story of the American society that emerged after second world war. In a time where the economy was blooming and as a result people got less working hours and more spare time, the leisure wear was becoming more popular and denim garments was the symbol for the American people as being strong, healthy and wholesome.

Levi's started a marketing campaign towards the eastern parts of the country in the 50's and as a part of the campaign, the Denim Family was created. This was a line of clothes created for the entire family to dress in denim from top to toe!

"Dude ranches" was the name of the new kind of amusement park that started to become popular for families dreaming of the sunset in the west and the outdoor life that was synonymous with cowboys. I have heard that the Denim Family line was intended to be used by the families who visited the Dude Ranches, dressing themselves up as cowboys and cowgirls. During this time Levi's produced their 501 jeans and the short horn shirts along with 507xx jackets and these garments were still made as durable workwear, while the Denim Family line was more about the fashion of the era.  

These jeans are vintage originals in deadstock condition. An example that is not becoming more common to say the least and it is not often that we see jeans that are this old that have remained unused.
