Summer of Love Vintage Jeans
A generation of of our youth emerged ready to explore the world of fashion in many ways. The summer of love inspired by life created it's own reality of style. Jeans became an expression of individuality and beyond.
Although denim has been around far before the hippies took root in San Fran, the 1960's revolutionized jeans in many ways. Many people took their favorite pair of jeans and converted them with paints, patches, glitter, and beads.
Little did everyone know, these burgeoning rebels of the 60's were setting the stage for decades to come. From their music to their style to their mission in life. The spirit of the 1960's remains alive and well today.
Take a trip to the grooviest time in history. For Spring / Summer 2017, Levi's is celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Summer of Love, its youthful optimism and freewheeling legacy.
Vintage Levi's goes WAY beyond the summer of love.
