Trying to date my levis jacket.

[edteach]

Picked up a made in America Levis Trucker jacket. It has the small e and 4 pockets but the back label says made in USA. So the 4 pockets makes it mid 80s to present and the made in USA puts it pre 2003 is this correct? Is there anyway to narrow down the time more? Thanks.

I think pictures would help, perhaps.

I don't know, I bought it on ebay at a fair price, I will have to wait for it to arrive. What do you mean number on button, the front buttons that say levis has a number on them? If not then where would I look? Thanks.

There is number stamped on the back of each button. It means the factory code. Also, when it arrives, you can look at the wash tag, it can help ID the year.

It is mode 80s.
Levis started 4 pockets design from the 80s, and they changed that narrow long patch to wider one in 90s I think.
I also believe this kind of wash tag only been used in 80s. Also, that 084, I do believe this means 1984. As one of my 1994 levis jeans has 094 printed on it.
