Does Levi's offer a revival/'vintage' version of it, like they have of their jeans?

That's not a 1930s jacket. It's from the 1960s, earliest. They may be pawn dealers, but on dating, they don't know their stuff. Amazing they have the guts to go on TV and spout this BS. They got RIPPED OFF on this jacket. No way it's worth $350 …

They still make these jackets today.

Yes they offer jackets also.

Not to hijack this thread but I found it somewhat difficult to locate a US source for the full Levi's Vintage Clothing line. Eventually found this one:

Some pretty nice stuff and priced like platinum. I suppose we might enjoy these things for a few years and then get our money back at the Las Vegas Gold and Silver Pawn Shop, if Rick is working that day.

Yep, Thanks Baron, that's where I found UnionMade. I checked some of the others (as our work IT allowed), but this seemed to be the only one that carried pretty much the whole range. Interesting that certain models of the jeans are not continued, such as the 1927's that I bought two pairs of last year.

Yes, they do rotate the availability of several of the models, as well as introducing new ones …
