Me too.
Got 2 pairs of LVC 1967 505s which are great jeans. Both about £90
and bought used pairs of '47 and '54 LVC 501s for peanuts both with little wear -one wash. I don't really like the cut of the 54s but the 47's are great - prefer the 505s though.
The quality difference between the made in USA 47's and the 505 (turkey) is not noticeable to me and the cut is very similar - the 505's abit more Mod.
