Levi’s jeans have a legacy that dates back almost 170 years.
These jeans were once designed as practical workwear with rivets on the pockets to ensure their durability have evolved into everyday wear. These practical, durable clothing once meant for labourers are now the much relished garment in their closet. People from all walks of life, infamous or not, love their jeans. Over the last 50 years, Levi’s have been favoured by many artists, actors and musicians, from James Dean to Elvis, Marlon Brando, Johnny Depp, Obama, Jayden Smith, Bieber, and others. Today, they’re the go-to choice for those looking for denim that’s comfortable, on-trend and easy to wear. While jeans are a typical pick for winter, many opt to wear their Levi’s all year round.
Easy Summer Looks with Levi’s Jeans
Check out our tips on how to perfect your summer look wearing Levi’s jeans.
Roll your cuffs.
For a quick and easy transition to your summer wardrobe, roll your cuffs up. Ankle length is ideal, whether you’re wearing skinny, slim or straight fits. The size of your roll depends on the shoes you’re wearing. For canvas shoes, sandals and slides, aim for ankle height or if you’re looking for more effect, roll them even a bit higher or use a larger roll. For hi-tops, your jeans should sit at the top of the shoes. For roll options, the double roll is the standard, simply fold the denim cuff twice. For thicker denim and hi-tops or boots, a thick roll is most effective.
Go for golfers.
Golfers are always a good choice for summer if you are looking for a slightly smarter outfit. They work well with jeans. Go for any solid colour in pastel, black, white or neutrals. Choose bolder colours or patterns to make a statement. If golfers aren’t your thing, and you are wanting to go more casual, choose a Tee, wear it baggy out or tucked in loosely. Levi’s has a great range of t-shirts in assorted styles and colours that are equally versatile when wearing with denim.
Choose your shoes.
Now it's time to pick the right footwear. For summer, you’ll want to go with shoes that are comfortable, light-weight and easy to slip on and take off. Canvas sneakers like Converse, Vans or Superga always pair well with denim. For a more casual look, you can also go for slides or flip flops which work well with t-shirts and chilling.
