are your levi’s ready for their next life?
Some jeans deserve another chapter.
If you have authentic vintage USA-made Levi's that no longer belong in your closet — for whatever reason — you may be able to give them a Next Life.
the next life program
Whether you purchased from Jean Genie Vintage, found them elsewhere, or maybe you’ve had them since high school — I’m now offering a re-homing opportunity for select vintage Levi's.
Your Levi’s will find a temporary home in my shop so that they can start their next life with someone who will wear and love them as much as you did.
Every pair is individually evaluated. Based on age, condition, rarity, and whether the jeans were originally purchased through Jean Genie Vintage — you will receive a store credit to use in the shop.
-
At this time, I'm only accepting the following Levi's styles.
They must be made in the USA:501
505
517
646
684
Note: all must have fully functioning zippers and buttons. They must not need significant repairs. No major stains or areas of distressing with exception of mild to moderate distressing at knees and thighs.
-
Please fill out the form with clear photos of the front and back — as I do in my listings — and of the front/back of the tag inside as well as the leather patch (if there is one).
One form per pair.
If you have the white slip or JGV tag and/or order number — if you purchased from me — even better.
I will review these inquiries — and reply to you with the offer of store credit you’ll receive in return for your Levi’s — weekly.
If agreed upon, you’ll receive directions on how to send to me for final inspection.
If I receive the jeans and they are not what was depicted in photos, or in a different condition than shown, they won’t be accepted and it will be your cost to ship them back to you.
-
Once your offer has been approved by you, and your denim has been received by me, the process cannot be reversed. (I will not send your denim back to you.)
The offer I give you is not negotiable.
If you are sending me photo inquiries without the true intention of sending them to me, but rather to receive information of the age of your denim, you will be blocked from the program and future inquiries will not be considered.
I reserve the right to end this program — or put it on pause — at any time.
-
The offer will include an extra $10 to help offset shipping costs.
Example: If I were to offer you $75 for your denim, my total offer would be $85 in store credit.
How you choose to send to me is up to you, but I will not be at fault for lost packages, so insurance and tracking is highly suggested.
