Kickstart the new year in style.
For the fourth time, Levi’s, the iconic purveyor of timeless American style, and BEAMS, the beloved Japanese clothing company and retailer, have collaborated on a special capsule collection.
Continuing their previous collaboration’s Super Wide offering, Levi’s and BEAMS bring new bold and widened pieces based on classic styles and washes to market. In creating the Levi’s x BEAMS Super Wide V2 collection, they took inspiration from simple, elegant, and subtle garments from 1944.
Among the Levi’s® x BEAMS Super Wide V2 collection are the Type I Trucker, a super wide V2 Jean, and the Graphic Tee, all of which are inspired by the 1944 Levi’s® jean jacket and made from heavy 16 oz. custom Orange Tick selvedge denim. The Super Wide V2 Type I Trucker features just four shanks, a custom super wide leather back patch – doubling the width of the iconic Two-Horse Pull patch, and a BEAMS exclusive tab.
Based on the collaboration’s concept, the campaign juxtaposes bamboo forests and cobblestone pavement against a studio backdrop reminiscent of traditional Japanese landscapes which can be seen below.
The limited-edition Levi’s® x BEAMS Super Wide V2 collection, which launches on the 9th of January 2024, will be available for purchase on both respective websites alongside select Levi’s® and BEAMS stores.
