A Pair Of Jeans Sold on Auction for crazy amount

A pair of Levi’s jeans from the 1880s has sold at an auction in a small town in New Mexico for more than $87,000. The jeans -found in an abandoned mine by a “denim archaeologist” – were bought by 23-year-old Kyle Hautner and Zip Stevenson, a veteran of the vintage denim market. It was one of the highest prices ever paid for a pair of denims – including a 15% buyer’s premium. Stevenson has run a denim repair shop in Los Angeles for nearly three decades but he had never found a pair quite like this. “These jeans are extremely rare — especially in this fantastic worn condition and size”.
