Excellent work! Makes sense! And it wouldn’t be the first time I’ve worn women’s jeans! :lol
You and me both...I’m just glad there aren’t many pictures of me from that phase. What was I thinking?! :lolExcellent work! Makes sense! And it wouldn’t be the first time I’ve worn women’s jeans! :lol
As as for the sizing, Guess DOES NOT size denim based on women’s charm sizes.
As far as I can tell: 4 digit style numbers were women’s and 5 digit styles were men’s when it came to Guess jeans.
These are women’s jeans. I don’t know why no one ever wants to believe this. Go look through tons of vintage shops and swap meets and literally 10s of thousands of listings online for vintage guess jeans like I have and let me know if you come to a different conclusion, but all the evidence points solely in one direction.

Size 12 and a 5 number style code. Currently on eBay.

Size 10 and looks to be 5 numbers, also on eBay.
Has anyone contacted Guess to see if they know if it was a men's style? I seriously doubt Michael J. Fox would wear women's jeans.
The largest size I believe these were made in was a 32. That’s a vintage 32 though, which fits like a 30 more or less.Little late to the thread, but I’ve been having trouble finding a pair, or figuring out what size I’d need! I’m a 31x32 in most jeans, sometimes 30x32. Anyone close to my size with some tips? Thanks everyone and great detective work!
Would you want to sell the Large Shah Safai Shirt? I've been looking for one.I may have to find another Shah Safari shirt as my Large is way baggy IMO. If anyone wants specific pictures or anything let me know. (Style tag, buttons, etc.)
I actually got super lucky and managed to find a set in size 36 waist! I'm closer to a 33-34 but thankfully these vintage Guess jeans are always smaller than modern measurements today.32 is the largest I’ve ever seen in the 1050s, (really closer to a 30...one of the smallest men’s sizes of jeans) yet any style with 5 digits in it can be found in larger sizes consistently.
The yoke on those is different than the 1984 1050s and the 1987 1050s. Can you make out the style number on yours? If they’re 1050s then that would be a really cool data point to add to the chart of how they evolved.I actually got super lucky and managed to find a set in size 36 waist!

Unfortunately the size and style stamps have completely worn off the tag so I cannot confirm if they are infact 1050’sCan you make out the style number on yours? If they’re 1050s then that would be a really cool data point to add to the chart of how they evolved.
Marty McFly, still keeping us on our toes after all these years!
Try using a black light to see the style number. It worked for me.Unfortunately the size and style stamps have completely worn off the tag so I cannot confirm if they are infact 1050’sView attachment 1616755
I also found this pair in size 32 as well, but again unsure if they are actually 1050’s based on the yoke, but that shape of the yoke may be different due to the sizing itself; Vintage Guess Straight Leg Denim Jeans Mens - Back to the Future - Marty McFly | eBay
This should probably be in another thread, but I would start looking at CWU/36 jackets NOT made under military contract- i.e. Polo Ralph Lauren brand. He did a lot of military styles (not just US mil styles) for the general public. That is based on the pocket style- large, high and angled with a top flap, and rounded corners to the collar. Mil spec ones use Velcro under the flap (to hold them closed), and no bottom snaps at the waist- just a front zip. This jacket also has a storm flap, so perhaps a CWU/45 would be a better starting point.Thanks for helping me find the jeans Michael Fox wore in part 1. Now that that mystery is solved I was wondering if anyone knows what kind of jacket Michael J Fox wore in Teen Wolf. The jacket is all blue, looks like a mix between a members only and a baracuta. Can't seem to find one close.View attachment 1442135View attachment 1442136
Yep, that's definitely the one though MJF used a one smaller size than yours if we saw the position of the belt loop.I've just found this pair. It's a bit beat up but looks pretty good to me. What do you guys think? This thread has been very helpful. Thank you all.

That looks to be the 1987 style 1050 that was used in BTTF2 if I’m not mistaken.I've just found this pair. It's a bit beat up but looks pretty good to me. What do you guys think? This thread has been very helpful. Thank you all.
