Levi's® -- Who Knew?
My last look at Levi's® was in elementary school. And I still own the classic pair perloined from my father's Lower East Side men's clothing store, long before the neighborhood attracted European tourists paying top Euro to stay in trendy boutique hotels and shop BoHo chic.

It's a Pitti
Of the 1,100 exhibitors descending upon Florence earlier this month to show their apparel, it’s a safe bet that only Dockers® brought a bear.In this case, the bear was Bear Grylls. He wasn’t actually at Pitti Uomo in person, but the trade fair provided the perfect opportunity for us to introduce Bear as the face of the current Dockers® global marketing campaign.

It's a favorite Bay Area escape-to-nature.So ... what did the Levi's® designers do with this inspiration?

Downey Down Under, With Denim
Have you ever had the experience of going to a foreign country and once you hit the streets you suddenly felt absolutely at home? That was my experience on a recent trip to Australia.I've just returned from Down Under. My traveling partners? Four pairs of vintage Levi’s® jeans: the XX, the 501® jean from 1879, also called The World’s Oldest Pair of Jeans; the Nevada, found in a dusty mining town; Lady Levi’s® jeans worn at an Arizona dude ranch in the 1930s; and a fun pair of girl’s striped flares from 1969.
