1989 US-Made Silver Tab Sherpa Denim Jacket

Straight outta 1989, this Levi’s gem is a true slice of Americana. Crafted in the good ol’ U.S. of A., it’s got that rugged charm that’s harder to find than a needle in a haystack these days.

What’s the Deal with the Silver Tab?

Now, you might be wonderin’ about that silver tab on the pocket. Unlike the classic red tab, the Silver Tab line was Levi’s rebellious little cousin—launched in the late ’80s and aimed at folks who liked their jeans a little looser, their music a little louder, and their style a whole lot bolder. It was Levi’s way of leanin’ into the hip-hop, grunge, and skate scenes of the day. And these days? That silver tab is rare as hen’s teeth.

Factory Code 743 – A Nod to Its Roots

This jacket was born in a U.S. Levi’s factory marked with code 743. While Levi’s didn’t always publicly list factory locations by number, jackets with this code have been traced to U.S. plants that were rollin’ out some of Levi’s finest workwear in the ’80s—made to take a beating and still come out lookin’ like a million bucks.

Cozy Meets Cool

Lined with thick sherpa that’ll keep you toastier than a pecan pie in July, this baby balances warmth and attitude like a honky-tonk ballad. The denim’s got that vintage weight and soul, with a perfect fade, silver tab swagger, and just a few teeny stains so subtle, we almost missed ’em (they’re pictured, of course).
