1970s Lee 200Z and Copper King 99Z comparison
Staying with the front pockets once more.
Identical construction on the entrance of the watch pockets, the front pockets, and the overlocking finish on the pocket bags.
Top: Lee 200Z
Bottom: Copper King 99Z

1970s Lee 200Z and Copper King 99Z, with their original flashers and labels.
Both of these were raw deadstock when I bought them nearly 30 years ago, and I've worn both of them quite a bit.
Other than both flashers depicting a cowboy on a horse, not much similarity here.

Two seemingly very different jeans that, on closer inspection, are nearly identical down to the smallest detail in the way they are constructed -- Lee 200Z and Copper King 99Z, both from the early 1970s.
Over the next several posts, I'll do a detailed comparison of these two pairs and show how amazingly similar they are.
