When WWII ended and raw materials were available again, LS&Co. leaped back into heavy production to meet the growing postâ"war demand. The watch pocket rivets were restored and the Arcuate was now double stitched on the back pocket, after being applied with paint throughout the war. With a slimmer fit, and streamlined design that no longer included a cinch back or suspender buttons, this jean was ready to rock 'n' roll. The 1947 501® Jean was the jean of a new generation.
