Denim is an integral part of our DNA. In 1873, Levi Strauss created the original blue jean and we’ve been innovating denim culture ever since then. As coveted now as they were in the past, our iconic pieces, such as the denim Trucker Jacket, Western Shirt and 501® Original Jeans have stood the test of time. Today, we offer a great selection of styles, from classic denim to essential closet staples.
Levi’s® Made & Crafted® is a step above our norm. We wanted to create something that feels very authentic and familiar to our brand but also gives a sense of newness and modernity. It’s everything you love about Levi’s® but designed with a premium twist. We use artful construction techniques, the best fabrics and unparalleled quality to create this line.
This elevated Levi’s® subcollection is known for pushing the envelope when it comes to design. In the past, our designers have been inspired by new-wave Western wear, the calming coastal lifestyle and travels to near and far lands. Through these global influences, our Levi’s® Made & Crafted designers have reimagined our icons in unexpected ways. Pops of color, never-before-seen silhouettes, fabric mash-ups and intricate details are considered the norm for this collection.
Similar to the rest of our collections, Levi’s® Made & Crafted® is heavily focused on denim. You’ll find our iconic fits like the 501® Original and also special fits exclusive to this subcollection. In addition to contemporary denim designs, our assortment also includes a mix of tops, tees, dresses, outerwear and more.
Although our Levi’s® Made & Crafted® pieces change each season, there’s one premium style that’s almost always included in every collection: selvedge jeans. The finest denim in production today, selvedge comes from the term "self-edge," and refers to the woven strip on both edges of a roll of fabric. Selvedge is traditionally woven on narrow-width shuttle looms, producing a clean edge with no fringe, and proprietary indigo stitches displayed at the cuff. It’s known for its superior quality, tailored look and signature red stitch when rolled.
Overall, our entire Levi’s® Made & Crafted® collection is crafted with impeccable quality and attention to detail. We hope that you feel this future-focused aesthetic and sense of unique rarity with each wear.
