Levi’s Vintage Clothing 517 Bootcut | A Timeless Icon Gets Limited Edition Revival For SS24

In a nod to its counterculture roots and a celebration of self-expression, Levi’s has relaunched the iconic 517 Bootcut jeans for Spring/Summer 2024. This revival pays homage to the rebellious spirit of the 1960s and 1970s, offering a limited edition Levi’s Vintage Clothing (LVC) 1970s 517 Bootcut. With only 800 units available, this stitch-for-stitch reproduction brings back a classic design that became a symbol of individuality during a transformative era.

The Levi’s 517 Bootcut jeans, first introduced in 1969 under the Orange Tab line, were a revolutionary deviation from the norm. Designed to be ‘full from the knee for the boot,’ they quickly gained popularity during the counterculture movement of the ‘60s and ‘70s. This season’s relaunch includes the exclusive Levi’s Vintage Clothing 1970s 517 Bootcut, crafted from preshrunk White Oak Cone Mills denim.

The limited-edition LVC 1970s 517 Bootcut is not just a pair of jeans; it’s a piece of history. Only 800 units are available, making it a coveted item for those who appreciate authenticity and style. The jeans are packaged in a nod to their early popularity among cowboys, encased in ‘Saddleman Boot Jeans’ packaging. It was designed to fit over Western boots and embraced by working-class rockers in the early 1970s. A staple of hippie culture from the 1970s to the 2000s, the 517s have stood the test of time, embodying durability, comfort, and timeless style.

For those eager to embrace the revived classic, the Levi’s Vintage Clothing 1970s 517 Bootcut is available now at levi.com, the Levi’s app, and select Levi’s stores. With only 800 units up for grabs, it’s advised to act swiftly to secure this investment in history.
