Considering Japan's claim to the title of "world's best denim" producer, the Levi's Made in Japan collection makes sense. Using the 501 CT model, the iconic jean brand exclusively makes use of materials, dying and sewing techniques from the country -- working to ensure consumers of the high grade of quality in each pair.
Still sporting the brand's statement logos, the Levi's Japan Made collection is available in two different washes. One is a deep indigo which has a few variations in color throughout, whereas the other is lighter, with the thighs marked by tones so light it's almost white.
Meanwhile, the structure of the jeans is classic, staying true to the brand's traditional style. Currently, the Levi's Made in Japan collection can only be accessed through its Japanese website and select store locations.
