Men's 501's on Amazon consistently sell in the $50 - $60 range, and that's on Amazon. So, full retail at $70 doesn't appear all that far-fetched.
And "new" Levi's are crappy quality as NONE are made in the USA any more. I bought two pair (one made in Egypt, one made in Mexico). The pair made in Egypt tore irreparably at the upper right corner of the back pocket the third time I wore them and the 501s made in Mexico tore at the crotch after just two wearings. I wear 33/30 and I am 5'10" tall, so it's not like I am stretching the seams to their max.
I now buy "George" regular fit faded jeans at Walmart and they not only fit better than Levis and their wear characteristics are much more durable, they only cost about $13 every day price.
I will never buy another pair of Levis again as their quality control is abysmal....unless they start making them in the USA from fabric produced in the USA, which is likely never going to happen again.

Which is great for you and for her, but less than 4% of all adult females in her age bracket are under 110lbs per government records, FYI. As to her height she is only taller than 14% of all adult females in her age bracket, so she is not exactly a demographic for a mass-market jean manufacturer.

I have the same experience. I always have to try on every pair before buying. I think it's may be because they're made in different countries.
Smallest size available is 22?

Not sure you understand how Jean sizing works. Size 24 is the only size I see available. This is too small for your wife (size 0). 💁
