Urgent birthday present vintage fashion help: Help me find a pair of jeans with a large zipper pull.
[Posted for a friend.] I'm looking for a pair of jeans my girlfriend used to wear in 2004, but I think she got them from a used/vintage clothing store. They're normal jeans, lighter wash, boot cut, back pockets, no frills on the lacing but the unique thing about these jeans is they had a VERY large metalic (maybe YKK) zipper pull. A good 3 to 4 inches long, an inch or two wide, and 1/4-1/2" thick. I would like to find these jeans, something similar, or a zipper pull replacement that would fit a normal YKK zipper slider that I can attach to a pair of jeans. I don't have a brand name.
I want to get them for her birthday in July so any help asap would be awesome. I would have to be able to purchase them in the Bay Area or online. Thank you everyone!

Your neighborhood shoe repair or any alterations place that takes coats can do this for you. They may have to replace the entire zipper of the jeans.
