The History of the 501®

This year the most iconic pair of jeans celebrate their 140th anniversary! Even though the Levi's 501 has undergone quite a lot of changes since it's inception in 1873, it has always maintained the core design and function intended by Jacob Davis and Loeb Strauss: A pair of waist overalls created out of sturdy denim fabric, riveted at points of strain.

Today we came across a nice little video showcasing some the most important version the Levi's 501.
