Imperfection may be a crooked line, bent in its asymmetry. But it’s imperfection that gives you new possibilities to forge ahead, redefining your perspective. This year, Levi’s® Red™ is inspired by the 2007 collection, featuring “handstitched” imperfections commonly found on our jeans from the early 1900s, a nod to the handicraft of our heritage. This collection also updates our heritage to be more sustainable—featuring natural indigo dyes, organic cotton and recycled nylon.
To bring it to life for the Chinese New Year, meet six young pioneers from China; talented and bent on pushing the envelope. Decked in Levi’s® Red™, these individuals show their perfect imperfections, proving that anything can be seen from a different lens.
