Marty McFly's Jeans...Let's Talk

[emmetguy222]

need to skinny them out like Marty wore it.

They just came in and, trust me, they're plenty skinny. It was a struggle to get the tapered ends over my legs, lol. Super satisfied with the color and fit, though! Now I'm just down to the most difficult parts of the outfit...

Is there a modern alternative that is similar?

Guess still makes a few that are decently similar, but none in the correct wash.

Vintage 1080s aren't super hard to find, but not in any normal mens' sizing, as far as I can find. (Maybe I just wear a weird size.) I found a brand-new pair of 1080s in my size ONE TIME, but they're too light, as you can see up there. Maybe someone can follow in TheNickFox's steps and get patterns made with theirs.

Yeah, for me the problem is sizing. I’m used to buying Levi’s and also haven’t really found any men’s vintage GUESS jeans on eBay. I’m not really trying to cosplay and more just for everyday fits.

Oh, that's cool. I wear a 28/32-34, so jeans in general are REALLY difficult to find. I do wish you luck in finding a good pair!

Thanks man

1080? Most member think it's 1050 Georges Marciano Guess

Correction, yeah mine are 1050s.

There's some perfect 1050s on eBay. These are 28x30, so I think these are probably somewhere near MJF'S actual size. Maybe a little bit longer. I'd 100% get them, but they're $80.

Edit: they're not. They're later, with the silver stamped button instead of the brass GUESS logo button. If you can look past that, they're identical.

I found these on my size. They’re from the 90s but the shape is good enough for me. Also the wash isn’t the correct one I don’t think but the color is similar. It has an extra tag on the front. All the others I could find from the 80s in my size had 2 buttons.

Just curious, does anyone have any pictures of what Headgoonie's jean replica looked like? The Wayback machine didn't archive the images.

Really clean 1015s that have the triangle already removed. Weird.

From what I can tell, 1050 and 22050 are almost the same, but 1015 is the zipper ankle version.

Oh wow that’s neat

 

[emmetguy222]

Perfect pair sold on Etsy a while ago.

Some 27 (25) x 30 jeans are on the Bay right now. $50. If I could wear these, I'd get them in a heartbeat.

These are nice. I've been looking for some time and can’t find this style of jeans on my size. I’m starting to think that maybe there wasn’t on my size made.

What're your measurements? I could keep a lookout.

I’m usually a 32x30 or 32x29 in modern fit. I think for vintage GUESS I’m like 34.

I've been eyeing these 32 waist. I just asked what the inseam is. I'm usually a 29x32 or 30x32, so these would be perfect if they have 32x34 legs. I feel like if I wash them a few times they'll fade like the others up there ^^
