501® DAY

MAKE SOME HISTORY

People have been customizing jeans for decades. Ripping and tearing, studding and patching, writing and painting all over them.

 

In 1973, we took customization to the next level by holding a Denim Art Contest, asking fans to decorate their own Levi’s® and send slides of their work. Some of those jeans still live in our archives and continue to serve as inspiration.

So in the spirit of customization, we’re celebrating 501® Day with a few of our favourite denim DIYs.
