Water<Less® technology. Their WellThread® line uses recycled plastic bottles and cotton scraps.

• Repair & Secondhand Programs: Levi’s Secondhand stores extend the life of garments by promoting pre-owned clothing and offering tailoring
services. Their in-store Tailor Shops help customers repair and customize their Levi’s, further reducing garment waste.
