Product Note

In the sixties, Leviā€™s produced 501s for some of the high-profile clowns of the rodeo circuit. They were comically oversized (W54XL25), requiring suspenders, and occasionally handpainted with a slogan or message emblazoned across the bum. This pair was likely customized by a rodeo clown with ā€œThe Endā€ to be incorporated into the act somehow. This pair is in stellar condition, considering its 1960s vintage and the regular rodeo arena abuse that it likely endured.Ā
