Vintage 1960’s Levi’s “Big E” Tote Bag

One of the cool things about vintage is sometimes you can turn an old thing into a new thing, recycling that old thing into something cool and useful. This may very well be one of my favorite cases of that happening! Incredible 1960’s Levi’s tote bag, made by Levi’s, using an old pair of big E 501’s. While we may be a little sad the jeans are no longer with us, we can definitely appreciate this little bag. Light wash hefty denim with all cotton red straps added on for that nice tote bag feel. Front of the bag has the original Levi’s patch, along with the original pocket and “Big E” tab. Arcuate stitching has become a bit undone on the pocket, but that just adds to the coolness. Snap button closure up top, presumably from an old Levi’s jacket. No holes or stains, this guy is ready to go!
