This line’s combination of soft, comfortable styles, silhouettes, and fabrics, paired with casual sophistication is an optimistic, forward-looking collection full of fun and color that draws inspiration from the casual, expressive style of the 1970s, viewed through a ‘90s lens.

It’s more relaxed with a splash of attitude, but still representative of the unparalleled Levi’s® heritage. 

Women’s Line

For this collection’s Women’s Line, it’s all about recreating and giving a new meaning to “Smart Casual” – great for a quick outdoor fit, but equally as comfortable for lounging indoors.

ITEMS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT, TOP TO BOTTOM: Capola Top in Peach Puree – Php 2,799, Zuma Sinched SLV Blouse in Janey Check Peach Puree – Php 2,799, Zuma Sinched SLV Blouse in Freaky Friday – Php 2,799, Fawn Tie Blouse in Daisy Foulard Enamel Orange – Php 2,799

While the tops bare more, the bottoms are looser and airier, with an away-from-the-body fit that borrows from the baggier styles of the ‘90s. Just about the perfect fit for our tropical climate.

This is how Levis® would like to express their high-low approach of blending looking casually confident through a balanced, flattering mix of cuts and fabrics.

This season’s Levi’s® Women’s Line also introduces the new Levi’s® 501® ‘90s.

With a more relaxed fit through the seat and leg, the 501® 90s offers a silhouette that’s looser than the traditional 501®, but that doesn’t stray into looking baggy.

Sitting just below the waist, it gives the wearer a roomier fit that can either be sized up or down depending on how it’s styled and worn.

Coming in a range of washes and worn-in finishes, it pays homage to the era’s crowd favorite pair of jeans.

Levi’s® First Half Collection also includes more options from Levi’s® Red Tab Sweats for both men and women – the ultimate work from home wear that’s made to easily transition to the perfect outdoor fit.

ITEMS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM – LEFT TO RIGHT: Snack Sweatshort Natural Dye in Saturated Lime – Php 1,499, Snack Sweatshirt Natural Dye in Saturated Lime – Php 3,499, Snack Sweatshirt Natural Dye in Mid-Saturated Purple – Php 3,499, Snack Sweatshort Natural Dye in Mid-Saturated Purple – Php 1,499

Styles feature a super soft, heavyweight French terry in both piece and garment dye, and come in an oversized silhouette that offers stylish slouchiness and cozy comfort.

Men’s Line

For the Men’s Line, Levi’s® explores bringing together the ideas of menswear and utility wear, focusing on looser fits and relaxed silhouettes.

Inspired by the styles of the ‘80s and ‘90s, we’re brought a range of bigger slouchier tops matching with a 501® jean pair, or an even looser and baggier bottom.

Touching more on streetwear, Levi’s® is bringing the classic styles to 2022, given the relevant present-day twist.

Versatility is also a big element in the men’s collection, with a mix of everything from jeans to the popular Levi’s® XX Chino, to an expanded range of Levi’s® Red Tab Sweats.

Along with the classic Levi’s® 501® and the 501® ’93, this season sees the relaunch of the 501® Taper for men, which features all of the elements of the 501®, only with a tapered leg. Denim finishes, too, are drawing from the ‘80s and ’90s, with a range of washes in brighter shades of indigo that are reminiscent of your favorite old pair of jeans. 

Beyond jeans, the Levi’s® XX Chino expands to include a Slim Taper, a Standard Taper, a Relaxed Taper, and a Classic Straight, all of which are garment dyed to give them a great color that only looks better with age. It’s the most versatile and stylish, not to mention a comfortable option when looking for something that sits between denim and sweats.

 Uniquely, the Levi’s® Red Tab Sweats not only maximize comfort, but they also boast wardrobe flexibility thanks to a mix-and-max range of crews, hoodies, and pants, including the new open-bottom sweatpants and shorts.

While maintaining their one of a kind, trademark style, Levi’s® continues to explore new possibilities of producing iconic statement pieces, with the consciousness of the importance of sustainability – hence is the use of plant-based dyes and dyeing techniques.

To that end, this season’s Levi’s® collection explores natural dyes called Levi’s® Fresh, inspired by a 1970s Levi’s® collection called “Fresh Produce”. This adventurous line captures the raw excitement of stepping out of our comfort zones, bringing with us a touch of home wherever we go.

“….We wanted to take the best parts of what we learned last year and combine it with the excitement of reentering the world. So we blended these two things—the best of being at home with the best of being going out. It’s a lot of comfort and coziness mixed with a style that looks great whenever you’re out in the world.” – Jill Guenza, Vice President of Design for Women’s Apparel at Levi’s, Strauss & Co.

This new line is a range of tops, bottoms, and accessories featuring natural dyes applied using a new dyeing technique that produces vibrant, icy shades of peach, lavender, pink, and yellow. All in a mix of both yarn and garment-dyed pieces.
