Levi's Workwear by Filson: A Collaboration Collection a Century in the Making
Yeah, we've heard it before. "They just don't make 'em like they used to," right? It may be true that ultra-durable (and ultra-covetable) pants and jackets originally created for miners in the late 1800s have become so rare that they're now either
the stuff of dreams or
high-priced auction pieces. But you don't have to go to Sotheby's to grab something just as good; the new collaboration line by
Levi's and
Filson is already in stores and online. Crafted from two materials perfected over a century of use—Filson's rain-and-wind-friendly Tin Cloth and Levi's classic denim—the resulting workwear certainly looks like it could last a lifetime. The Tin Cloth trucker jacket, denim hunting vest, sawtooth Western shirt, straight-leg pants, and masculine accessories aren't designed just to survive any environment, but to look crisp and modern doing it, too. So, yeah, maybe they don't make 'em like they used to—they make 'em better.
Levi's Workwear by Filson, available at select Levi's and Filson stores and online at www.levis.com and www.filson.com.
