Levi's jeans have long been a classic in the fashion world. They are known for their high quality at reasonable prices. But what does this “high quality” mean and is it worth the money? Or can you find more budget-friendly alternatives, for example, from the popular Gloria Jeans company in Russia?
Why are Levi's jeans considered prestigious and status?
First of all, they are famous for their versatility: the product line includes models for all types of figures, they all have the same size range. This means that you can order them online without fear of getting the wrong size.
In addition, Levi's jeans have:
- long term wear;
- abrasion resistance;
- impeccable tailoring - the strongest semi-synthetic threads are used in their production, and the internal seams are carefully processed with an overlocker;
- convenience and comfort.
They are distinguished by the ability not only not to wear out for a long time, but also to maintain their shape: they do not stretch and do not begin to fall off even after long wear, numerous washings and ironing.
Model 501 is especially popular among buyers. It is made of 100% cotton and is famous for its rigid fabric, which over time adapts to all the nuances of the figure and becomes like a “second skin.” Moreover, the longer it is worn, the better it fits.
Reference! To achieve this effect, when trying on, the jeans should fit snugly, but they should appear slightly too small. After some time, the feeling of discomfort will go away, and the jeans will fit perfectly.
Consumers are also pleased with the wide range of Levi’s models: it includes tight jeans, skinny, wide, and baggy, with zippers and buttons. However, the color scheme is modest and tends towards the classics: blue, black and light blue. In addition, jeans from this company are not suitable for lovers of patterns and decorations.
Accordingly, if we talk about the shortcomings, they most often include boring design and high prices, despite the fact that the average cost of such jeans is actually 600 rubles. In addition, it is very easy to run into a fake of lower quality, so before purchasing you need to familiarize yourself with the distinctive features of the original branded items.
As for the cheaper options from the Gloria Jeans company, they combine the following advantages:
- color fastness;
- hygroscopicity, providing maximum wearing comfort;
- resistance to washing, ironing, dry and wet friction without losing shape - these jeans will not shrink or stretch;
- high-quality and neat tailoring;
- affordable price.
The main disadvantage of GJ products is their susceptibility to abrasion. However, the fabric itself is dense, without holes, stripes or any kind of damage.
Interesting fact! At one time, there were rumors that Gloria Jeans collaborated with Levi’s and produced jeans under the Levi Strauss Signature TM brand for the American Walmart chain at a lower cost than the original products. However, in 2015, representatives of the Levi’s company denied these rumors.
