Rethinking Black Friday

Like any apparel and retail company, the holiday shopping season is an important one to us. When it kicks off in the U.S. this weekend with the traditional Black Friday sales, we’ll be ready.

At the same time, we agree that thinking sustainably about your purchases – throughout the year – makes sense. Do you want to buy something that you’ll need to replace in a few months, or spend a bit more on a product that’ll last?

What’s the old saying? "Buy cheap, buy twice."

We work to build sustainability into everything we do at Levi Strauss & Co. And that includes making products that last.

Our friends at BSR recently ventured out to talk to people about sustainability in a variety of forms. You might find their resulting blog post "food for thought" as you plan your holiday shopping. Check it out here.
