Levi's Vintage 1954 501®, the only 501® with a zipper, was introduced in 1954 to make the then standard button-fly 501 more approachable for the new East Coast market. Tailored in raw Japanese denim, these jeans will develop personal wear just like they used to.  At Semifinalist, we seek out primary sources.  Whatever the moniker - the "genuine article", the "real McCoy", the "OG" - we are biased towards original makers.  When it comes to jeans, we turn to Levi Strauss and Co, granted the patent for blue jeans in 1873.  Furthermore, Levi's has staked a "higher calling in business", aspiring to run a company with profits through principles. Decades ago, Levi's pioneered a code of conduct for its suppliers and developed sustainable manufacturing practices, often sharing its insights with rivals.
