Levi's Introduces New Products Over the past five years, season after season, Levi's has introduced new products that meld innovative design thinking with an overriding commitment to sustainability. Now, in conjunction with the 150th anniversary of the iconic Levi's 501 jean, Levi's is featuring a suite of products - a Plant-Based 501, a hemp-cotton blend Selvedge 501, and a Circular 501 - that show how new thinking and technologies can be applied to an age-old classic, pointing the way to the future. The Plant-Based 501 is made of at least 97% plant-based materials, with all certified organic cotton, natural destuff, a plant-based patch and ink made from wood waste. Hitting the market in late Summer 2023, these jeans are an indication of what the industry could look like in the years ahead given the push to minimize synthetic materials derived from fossil fuels and the need to make more garments with renewable inputs rather than finite resources. They are an evolution in the company's design innovation practice, building on past seasons and establishing new foundations on which to build going forward. Among the attributes of the Plant-Based 501 are: The fabric is made with 100% OCS-Certified organically grown cotton and dyed with plant-based indigo fromtony Creek Colors; Denim color references Levi's X80 archival shade; The garment back patch is made from a material called MIRUM by NFW, and is fashioned from 100% biobased, plastic-free inputs generating no effluent in production; The internal pocket bag is 100% cotton and printed with BioBlack TX, a plant-based black pigment made from wood waste, manufactured in a closed-loop system and developed by Nature Coatings, another collaborating partner.oven labels and sewing threads in non-critical areas of the garment are likewise 100% cotton; Each pair contains at least 97% bio-based content based on components weight measured against overall garment weight (non-plant-based content includes sew thread, the care label and metal trims). Additionally, building on its efforts with cottonized hemp over the years through its Wellthread line, Levi’s is releasing a hemp/cotton blend Selvedge 501. These will come in a variety of shades and finishes for women and men alike, some featuring natural dyes. They will be released throughout the year, marrying the premium selvedge fabric with the alternative fiber innovation that has characterized so much of Wellthread’s work in recent years. Also being highlighted as part of the 150th anniversary celebration is the Circular 501, first released in 2022. This jean is made with a mix of organic cotton and Renewcell’s pioneering Circulose fiber, viscose made in part from recycled denim and other forms of textile waste. The formulation allows to use far fewer natural resources and chemicals in the production process. Each material component aligns with a strict single-fiber strategy that enables efficient recycling at the end of the garment’s useful life. By replacing parts of the garment that would normally be made from synthetic fibers – like polyester pocketing, threads, labels, and interfacing – with 100 %cotton alternatives, we’ve removed synthetic elements that would otherwise disrupt the cotton recovery process. The result is a new jean made with old jeans that is itself designed to be recyclable, with the potential to be re-made into new jeans, again and again. Reported Earnings • Jul 07
