What's the difference between the levis shrink to fit 501s and the 501xx?
UNIFORM LA CHILLICOTHE WORK JACKET Drop, going on right now.
Uniform LA's Chillicothe Work Jacket is an elevated take on the classic Detroit Work Jacket. Made of ultra-premium 14-ounce Japanese canvas, it has been meticulously washed and hand distressed to replicate vintage workwear that’s been worn for years, and available in three colors.
This just dropped today. If you missed out on the preorder, there are some sizes left, but they won't be around for long. Check out the remaining stock here
Good luck!.

It depends on you talk to, really. Collectors refer to 501XX Levi's as pre' 67 501s with hidden rivets, before the transition to plain 501 models (the transition models) starting from about 1967 without hidden rivets and with the XXX designation dropped. 501XX, of course, also refer to vintage repros of the pre-67 models.Originally Posted by Cake
i think the xx means xtra strength. the denim is basically heavier for durability.Originally Posted by dondenim

If the XX designation was dropped then why do some new STFs still have that printed on the label?Originally Posted by rnrswitch
sorry to rez this thread, but I've seen some "NWT" STF on ebay where the "STF" tag on the pocket it there, but he patch just reads "501" rather than "501xx". What gives?
