History 101: Levi’s, The Best of the Best in Denim

Where would the world be today without jeans? Seriously. Just think about it. What if this great pair of pants never came to fruition? What if we would all still running around in more skirts, dresses, or those heavy wool pants? Jeans are pretty THE staple in most  Americans wardrobe. It’s hard to imagine the percentage of people in this country who DON’T own a single pair of jeans. And well, we pretty much have Levi Strauss to thank for that. “Founded in 1853, Levi Strauss came from Buttenheim, Franconia, (Kingdom of Bavaria) to San Francisco, California to open a west coast branch of his brothers’ New York dry goods business. Although the company began producing denim overalls in the 1870s, modern jeans were not produced until the 1920s.” The jeans patent came to be from Jacob Davis, a tailor who bought many bolts of hemp from Levi, who came up with the idea for pocket rivets and the original button fly. Luckily, trends can spread fast, and so jeans quickly transcended past the cowboys’, lumberjacks’, and railroad workers’ realm.

Now we so many different styles of jeans it’s hard to keep up. But to keep it simple and straight, we’ve stocked 3 styles of Levi’s for the upcoming season. The most recent coveted: The Boyfriend. A low-rider skinny jean in grey. And if you can’t get enough of the skinny, we’ve a “super skinny” called the “Night Out.” The best part of Levi’s besides their classic appeal? The price. We’re selling all our styles for $50 or less. You can’t beat that for an American classic wardrobe staple. Need a spring jean revamp? You best turn your head to the American designs in this case, it’s something we can call our very own.
