The Great Granddaddy of denim (and a cool one at that), Levis has been doing the rounds since 1873. The Levis name is that of Levi Strauss, a Bavarian immigrant who resided in San Fran and became the first ever man to manufacture blue jeans. Set to be around for many more years yet, Levis denim is still a firm favourite across the globe, notably for its premium materials, expert craftsmanship and long-lasting durability.
