Destruction by commie anti- American management
Of a once- respected company. So sad. And they’ve stopped even making their pants in USA, too —-Levi’s can GTH!

It’s like all the corporations are striking at once. It’s really odd.

I wore shrink-to-fit 501s for decades, as regular pants did not fit me without alterations.

I gave them up when they outsourced: sizing and sewing became very inferior and extremely unpredictable.

To my knowledge, no. Very reliable high quality until they left USA; immediately became overpriced, unwearable crap after.

Wranglers were always better fitting, had better pockets, and were flexible.

The first and last pair of Levis I bought almost castrated me when I bent over. Never wore them again.

Leave it to a liberal to fuck up a good company.

I quit wearing Levi's long ago as they would not hold up to the wear and tear of work. Carhartt makes a better jean and clothing.

It’s ironic when a company that is self proclaimed as a “values driven company” has their values rooted in evil.

Gun control is how well you group your shots.

Bought my last levis in the 1970s. I eventually noticed the the denim didnt look right and compared it to older levis I owned. You could see the difference in the fabric weave. Levi jeans no longer wore like the used to. Switched to Wranglers, Lees, and others. I now wear only Helikon SFU Next trousers made in Poland. Ripstop cotton poly that wears like iron. Double seat, double knees, nine pocket, dual hangers, tab adjustable waist, 2 in belt loops, with tieable hems. They come in seven colors plus several camo patterns. Very affodable, high value for money. I dont normally vouch for brands with the exception of Smith & Wesson and Helikon.

Amazing how these large companies literally destroy themselves as they commit “suicide” by jumping into political dog fights. Wonder how far their stock will fall today?

In 2005 LS shut down GWG, which had been a leading clothing manufacturer (The GWG product was superior in every way to any other jean I have owned to this day) originating in Edmonton in 1904-ish.
This after shutting down all activities other than sales west of Burlington Ontario in the early 1990s.

I haven’t bought Levis in a LONG time.

If only there were other jeans manufacturers to turn to. Oh wait - there are!

Bye bye, levi.

The funny thing about Nike, and now Levi Strauss, is that their value is in their brand, not their products. There are dozens of other items manufactured in third world hell holes that are just as good (or bad) as Strauss and Nike products. Just because some wimpy little liberal CEO or board of directors wants to make a political point, doesn't mean the customers will all love it. As MJ says: "Conservatives buy shoes, too."

It is very easy to kill a brand. Nike, and now Strauss, have proven it.

Adding Levis next to Nike on my “DO NOT BUY” list.
