Vintage pair of Levis, 125 years old, go for close to $100,000 - News Summed Up

Vintage pair of Levis, 125 years old, go for close to $100,000


A buyer in Southeast Asia has purchased a pair of 125-year-old Levis for almost $100,000. The jeans, originally bought in 1893 by Solomon Warner, a storekeeper in the Arizona Territory, have a drastically different look than today’s Levis. Warner, it turns out, had a colorful history that had nothing to do with his jeans. The jeans were in good condition when they were purchased earlier this month because Warner had only worn them a few times before becoming ill. The identity of the buyer and the exact amount of the sale have remained under wraps, because the Levis were sold through a private sale and not by way of an auction.
