LEVI'S 501 Spring 09 graphic collection

Despite being created many years ago, the original Levi’s 501 button-fly is still very much relevant and popular in the modern era. OG Levi's 501s are the ONLY jeans i've personally been wearing for almost the past 3 years now.. nothing else. Seeing various different twists to the classic style alongside the traditional Levi’s Vintage Collection, Levi’s offers a somewhat contemporary update to the 501 with this Graphic series collection. Available this month, four different styles inspired by the colors and sights of 80’s video games each feature a different printed weft which is revealed when the denim is cuffed. I think these designs are pretty fly, & i'd definitely look into a pair for myself. Retail is $98 at certain Levi's retailers.
