Sam Report post Posted December 30, 2013 Has anyone recently bought Levi's that were made in the USA? I have been trying to find some new 501s and they all seem to be made in Mexico or some other country. The label is different and it no longer says "made in the USA". Maybe I am shopping at the wrong stores........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRDATR Report post Posted December 30, 2013 I don't think they have made them here in 10 years. http://www.ebay.com/gds/Levis-Made-in-the-USA-/10000000002166814/g.html Guess they are still out there. http://www.brooksbrothers.com/Levi's%C2%AE-501-Original-Fit-for-Brooks-Brothers/485R,default,pd.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PRDATR Report post Posted December 31, 2013 I always wore them and would buy a few pairs when Mervyns would have them on sale a few times a year. Then they went out of business. After that I couldn't find them anywhere for under $38 a pair and started wearing Wranglers. One thing I found was the Wranglers didn't fade as quickly, the belt loops didn't break and the crotch didn't wear out and get holes. When Wrangler came out with the stretch blue jeans I started wearing them because they are lighter and a lot cooler in the summer and at $22 a pair I can buy four pair at a time and if I tear one up it's no big deal plus I always have five or six pairs around that aren't all ratty looking to wear on the job.
