With styles that pour out cult nostalgia, this niche collection comes from one of the true kings of denim. Formed in 1853, in San Francisco, Levi’s were the prime instigator in the rise of blue denim. Famed for crafting the first primitive jeans that resemble the style that we know and love today, Levi’s were an institution to the American worker, who craved the label’s blend of durability and style.

The infamous belt patch that features the Levi horses was developed as a trademark display of Levi jeans’ strength, which was ultimately down to a patented metal rivet system which helped keep the denim together at points of high strain such as the pockets.
This rivet technique took hold, and soon became the norm for any jean design, leading right up to the modern day.

Levi’s exploits in providing clothing for the American worker made them infamous, with everyone from the cowboys of the Midwest to the gold rush minors of California clamoring to ply their respective trades in a pair of Levi jeans.
