DaniLeigh Talks Levi High

How’d you get the idea for “Levi High?

I’m not even gonna lie. I was in the studio and David Biral, the producer, played the beat. And I just saw it: “Levi High jeans, sitting right…” because I had my Levi jeans on. That’s my explanation. I was really wearing them.

The singer discusses that crazy music video with DaBaby, tells us where she gets her Levi’s®, and more.

Levi's Going Public Again

Levi's IPO will mark the second time that Levi Strauss has gone public.

Levi Strauss & Co. (LS&Co.) announced February 13, 2019 that it has filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) relating to a proposed initial public offering of shares of its Class A common stock.

LS&Co. intends to list its Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “LEVI.”

In case you were curious, Levi's went public in the United States in 1971.  It was bought back by the Strauss family in 1985.  Well, it is time to have another go at being a publicly traded company.

Made and Crafted by Levi's

Made & Crafted
Levi's are know longer your go to for basic jeans.  They are far more.  Competing with designer jeans brands, Levi has taken steps to go more "premium".

Over 140 years ago Levi Strauss invented blue jeans.  This act had forever changed the way American and the rest of the world dressed.  Levi's Made and Crafted collection builds on this legacy created by Levi.  The Levi's company is re-imagining the new classics, skillfully constructed pieces made in the finest possible materials.

Each season they will show consumers exciting and high quality products.  Their new spring/summer 2014 collection is a mediation on surf and its elements.  Levi will be taking us to where the sky meets the sea.

Construction of the Clothing
Every garment is cut, sewn, and finished using the best possible methods.  Some items take a few days to make but it's the extra steps that ensure their pieces are as beautiful inside as they are outside.

Fabric Selection

They develop their fabrics with the best mills in the world.  Their premium-quality denim is woven in the USA, Italy, and Japan.  Hand-waxed leathers come from Italy.  They blend their wool and cotton with cashmere and silk yarns.

Finer Details

When thinking about quality or luxury, the minor details in a garment are important.  Clearly the difference is in the details.  The Levi's arcuate is stitched behind the pocket, gradually appearing with wear.  They use real indigo and other natural dyes in new and unexpected ways.  Their buttons are made from compressed cotton, bone, and wood.



What will you pair with your jeans?

Good things take time and Levi's have taken their time putting the Made & Crafted collection together.
  • They hand sew our shirts using single needle construction
  • They bind all interior seams of our chinos for a neat finish
  • They have the best fitting jeans for both men and women
  • Their denim is carefully hand finished by the best laundries in the world

Cottonized Hemp Denim

Levi's latest collaboration features fully recyclable styles, a tee made from recycled jeans and the first ever “cottonized” hemp denim.

Cottonized hemp looks, and more importantly feels, almost indistinguishable from cotton. The innovative development of this rain‑fed hemp allows it to be woven like cotton into your jeans – same great feel, a lot less water.

Levi 501 CT Tapered Jeans

Inspired by you, Levi took the 501® Jean and designed the perfect tapered fit. Introducing the new 501® CT jeans.  
Levi's 501 CT Jean Tapered
Wear it relaxed and borrowed-from-him or downsized and sexy, depending on your style. Comes in a midwash with whiskering at topblock and distressed rips at knees.

Levi 501CT jeans
Patched, shredded, cropped, or tappered; over the year you have made the 501 Jean your own.  Levi has now taken the 501 CT and crafted the perfect tapered fit.

According to Karyn Hillman, Chief Product Officer at Levi, "The great thing about the CT is, like the 501, you can wear it many different ways.  I love wearing mine slouchy and relaxed, sitting low on my hips with a cuff at the ankle.  I almost always wear them with a great boot or heels."


501 CT Jeans cuffed with heels

Jonathan Cheung, SVP of Global Design pointed out that, "After hemming, tapering the leg of 501 jeans is the most requested alteration in the Levi's stores and tailor shops around the world, so we decided to do it for you, creating the 501 CT and the perfect custom taper."
