After over six decades of being a Levi's fan it's time to call it quits
This is basically about overall quality. Over the years I have watched the quality decline in every aspect.
Inconsistent workmanship. One used to be able to count on one pair of jeans being the same as previous pairs. Not the case anymore. In my last three orders of multiple pairs of 501s, items in the same order were inconsistent.
The fabric gets thinner every year.
Right rear pocket attachment point develops a hole over a short period of time. I do not carry anything in that pocket.
A pair of Levi's would last years. Six months is considered amazing with today's product.
These are made in more countries that I can begin to count with some of the worst quality control and workmanship that I could document using ISO9000 standards.
Bottom line. Overpriced junk. This is the last time I will deal with this company who was based on quality in the past but has lost their commitment to the primary factor that made them great. Time to try Wrangler once again next go around. Ordered them in the past and went back to Levi's after the thinner material seemed cheap. This latest Levi order makes Wrangler look more attractive with the latest, additional decline, in Levi quality.
