Levi’s and NIGO, the Japanese fashion designer, DJ, record producer, and entrepreneur, just released their latest collaboration for Spring/Summer 2023. The duo’s third installment follows their previous archival reproduction & HUMAN MADE collaborations.
Celebrating the 150th anniversary of the Levi’s 501 jean, the Levi’s x NIGO SS23 capsule collection features NIGO’s favorite personal archive piece, the Hickory Stripe 501 jeans, and a 557XX Hickory Stripe Trucker Jacket.
The 501 features a collection-specific 13 oz, Shrink-to-Fit™ Hickory Stripe selvedge denim construction, Levi’s Red Tab, signature button shanks, Two-Horse Pull back patch, and back pocket stitched arcuate. It comes in a vintage wash with specific threads and shanks chosen to closely match the archival reference pair.
The 557XX Trucker Jacket, inspired by Levi’s 1960s Type III Trucker Jacket, is also crafted with 13 oz Hickory Stripe selvedge denim and comes pre-shrunk, and a vintage wash to match the 501.
Every piece from the collection comes with a special edition Levi’s x NIGO 150th anniversary tote bag and co-branded hangtag.
The Levi’s x NIGO collection is available for purchase now on Levi.com, the Levi’s App, select Levi’s Stores, and humanmade.jp.
