This month marks 150 years of the Levi's® 501® – the original modern blue jean! We dug into its history to discover the design elements of the 1873 model. Thanks to Levi's® Historian, Tracey Panek, and Design Director, Paul O'Neill, we now have a historically accurate replica of the first 501® jean. Learn more about its origins by joining Tracey on a deep dive into the Levi's® Archives. #150YearsOf501 | Levi's
