Levi's / 80s 501 Jeans MADE IN JAPAN 36

Levi's / Levis, 80s 501® Jeans in Dark Indigo, MADE IN JAPAN.

A new collection for the 2024 Fall/Winter season is released from the Made in Japan (MIJ) collection.
Denim making was introduced to Japan during the era of material rationing during World War II, and Japanese craftsmen began producing clothing by hand, operating old shuttle looms.
In the 1950s, as Americana and rock and roll gained popularity, the Japanese developed the American denim production style, continuously refining the meticulous craftsmanship that is a Japanese tradition.

Nowadays, Japanese denim is one of the most coveted fabrics in the world.
This collection incorporates traditional Japanese techniques into the classic Levi's® silhouette, elevating denim to contemporary art through its unparalleled craftsmanship.
The collection also features the Made of Japan (MOJ) series, made from the highest quality Japanese denim fabric, enriching the collection with denim made in Japan.
The 80s 501® is based on the famous archive designs worn by world-famous figures such as rock stars, celebrities, revolutionaries, and style icons. It features a more relaxed thigh than the current 501® and a tapered silhouette that narrows towards the hem.

This pair is packed with attention to detail, including the highest quality Japanese rinse-wash denim fabric with a strong blue color and luster, as well as the finish.
I've worn it for about a month. There are faint whiskers, but they are barely noticeable.
