Hm, that look on your face. Let’s guess: the holidays? This time around, avoid the scramble. Gift early and gift intentionally. That way, you’ve gifted yourself the freedom to focus on what really matters: your friends and family–ancestral or chosen. Take a cue from our cast.

“MY BIGGEST GIFT, FOR MYSELF, IS JUST FAMILY BEING THERE.”

Ok, now that we’ve gotten our holiday dose of sweetness and light it’s time to get down to the nitty-gritty. The reason we’re here. Gifting–and more specifically this Holiday 2022 Gift Guide. Let’s start off by saying you *can* make everyone happy. No, it’s true. There is a gift out there that everyone on your list will love–Just see below.

ICONS FOR YOUR ICONS

These are that intentional, please-the-whole-family gift. No bones about it. Anyone and everyone on your list will be thrilled to tear off the recycled DIY gift wrap to reveal our never-fail, wear-forever, century-plus-tested denim icons: 501® Jeans, Trucker Jackets, and Western Shirts.

“IT’S THE HOLY GRAIL. IT JUST FITS IN THE WAY THAT YOU WANT JEANS TO FIT.”

With their life-changing fit (ask any convert) and love-forever style, 501® Jeans are the Holy Grail of gifting. Plus, you can really tailor your pick to their style with all the different versions of the fit we carry. The trendsetter? Get them 501® ’90s. Too cool for school? 501® ’93. So classic, so right.


Then there’s the Trucker. Don’t even get us started on the literal original jean jacket. Double down on cool and pair them with a 501® fit of your choice or choose from any of our trend-right styles for the season. We recommend a quilted or sherpa lining ‘cause–you know–it’s chilly out there.


Western shirts may have this kind of cowboy vibe that maybe not everyone is into, but for those who are, these styles are the GOAT of the rodeo-inspired shirting set. Their hearty Levi’s® denim lasts and lasts while their style–while specific–is also super timeless. Don’t be afraid to grab these iconic pieces for the cowhand inclined in your life.

The Gift of Cozy

Icons aside, it’s cozy season–and while *some* people may snuggle into their couch in a good Trucker or pair of jeans, a lot of us like something a little more soft and stretchy to lounge around in.


Enter: sweats. We know what you’re thinking and yes, we *do* make sweats. From crewnecks to hoodies and joggers and flares, we actually make almost as many sweats as we do jeans. Actually, that’s not true at all. We make waaay more jeans, but we’re trying to make a point here and that point is that we should be your sweats destination just as much as your denim destination.


So pick up a pair for them–stretchy waistbands mean you don’t have to fuss about the size, and they won’t have to fuss about the return. Then while you’re at it, maybe pick up a pair for yourself for–you know–wrapping gifts by the fireside, and sipping hot chocolate and all that cozy holiday stuff.

Accessories For All

Not sure of their size? Don’t know their style? Accessories are always there for when you’re not *quite* sure what to get them.


Hats and beanies are great cause they’ll never *not* need them. Cold weather or cozy conditions always call for a slouchy knit cap. And when it’s sunny there is literally nothing better than a baseball cap or bucket hat to keep you out of the sun. And if they all just so happen to proudly tout your favorite all-American retailer, then so be it.


When all else fails, there are always gift cards. That way, they get what they want–and you don’t have to stress. It’s that simple.
