The apparel industry is facing an over-consumption crisis. And Levi’s® is not exempt from the problem. Over the past decade, we’ve been taking actions to change that – like finding new ways to produce, new ways to source, and innovations that use less water and energy. Learn more.

Our latest campaign leans into our history of high-quality products that are made more responsibly and made to last longer, all to offer one simple suggestion: Buy better. Wear longer. It’s a proposition and a promise. We’ll keep making products that stand the test of time, and you keep wearing them as long as possible.

THE MOMENTUM OF CHANGE.

The more of us that can get behind change, the more powerful and likely it becomes. So we teamed up with six activists who are creating a positive impact in the world today.
