A look on the inside of the 1960s Western-style jeans I made last week. I'm always more interested in the inside than the outside, as it says a lot about the construction of the jeans.

Some of the branding on the two pairs of Western-style jeans I made some days ago. It's a lot of fun making my homemade jeans look like actual products.

Two pairs of Western-style jeans inspired by 1960s Wrangler and Maverick jeans are all done!
The paper flasher on the back pocket is just for fun.

Making two pairs of Western-style jeans inspired by 1960s Wrangler and Maverick jeans.

The concept of these Wrangler-inspired western jeans was to make them as clean on the inside as on the outside, without any unfinished or serged seams or edges.

The yellow size tag is made of paper reinforced with cotton mesh fused to the back, and can easily be torn off. Ready for a first wash! The second pair I made I'll keep as a kind of self-made "new old stock", to be worn maybe 10 or 20 years from now.

The hardware on a pair of 111-Z Eureka Western jeans. A raw copper button, non-scratch copper plated rivets, and a vintage new-old-stock Talon semi-automatic zipper. As always, hardware from @kenji.

The finishing of the waistband ends can be done in a lot of different ways. For these I used a method in which the chainstitch is sewn beyond where the waistband will end, and the extra waistband is cut leaving a 15 mm margin, which is then tucked inside the end of the waistband, and closed with a black lockstitch. This method was used a lot by Wrangler and some store brands. The advantage is that the waistband can be sewn onto multiple jeans consecutively without interruption.
