History of Levi's from the Archive

Established in 1989, the Levi's® Archives houses a valuable collection of garments, catalogs, advertisements, and artifacts from all over the world. Their company history is preserved by weaving together the past with the present.

In 2015 Tracey Panek, Levi Strauss and Co. Historian and Archives Director brought the Archives into the digital age with the introduction of the Virtual Vault. It houses a diverse collection that ranges from iconic garments to 1950s advertisements and vintage photographs that document the company's humble beginnings.

The Archives team is dedicated to the search and restoration of artifacts from all over the world, and they've preserved the legendary Levi's history and legacy by weaving the past with the present.
