All my questions about premium levis has not been answered.

Just got 2 pair of 501 selvedge in Blast of Blue nonstretch on sale from$149. to $103. Made in China. I have to admit that although I try to avoid made in China products, Levi's was very serious about quality cost ratio. Im keeping these. THESE are beautifully crafted. Big surprise!

I love my premium 514s. Have three exact pairs for the last five years and still going strong!

there are some selvedge models in premium line, also blows my mind i usually find the premiums at half the price of regular (or even less) idk if i have the best luck but kinda worries me because that could mean they're not selling all that well and could be a discounted line

[monmonkkk]

Just got some one wash 501 premium on sale for 50 euros, when you know that their budget line starts at 80€ here in Europe..
Best cut for the price, not stupid heavy but not cheap light fabric. Looks well finished.
Unbeatable for the price

Hi Den insightful video as always. I think that apart from the 501 STF the least quality items named Levi's should be the Premium line. Although enjoy some premium pairs, I think Levi's Made and Crafted collection is way better than Premium, details like selvedge fabric, chainstitched hem, more consistent sizing, some items being made with japanese selvedge (by Kaihara) or even Made In Japan entirely allows you to enjoy a 'like LVC'' experience with different cuts like 511, 512, 551Z, 501 '93. I'm very happy with all my M&C pairs. Sorry for the rant. 😂 👖

Now they make selvedge Premium, but as for my exprience, Premium (100% cotton) really worth the extra. Each pair is unique, but some of my Premium compare to my original USA Cone Mills, 150th selvedge or even LVC. As you said, LVC sell a story. If you want to flex on top of the top quality, go Iron Heart.

The vast majority of my items are "regular" 501 STFs, 505s, 511s, 513s, shirts, and truckers. My 513s and three pairs of my 511s are nice jeans in khaki, gray, caraway, black, olive, and white but from the regular line. I have multiple pairs of most colors and rotate them and take good care of them. Being a county commissioner in a rural Colorado mountain community, it’s important to look good representing our citizens and culture, yet practicality is important. My black, tan, and perhaps my white truckers are Premium but they were bought on sale and that was just conicidence.

All Levi’s stores will stack a student or military discount on all discount prices. Student ID, and hit the sale section during a clearance sale. I got some white 501’s for 4 bucks.

Good comments on the premium line den.
I love the premium brand, especially the Marlon indigo's

[gabrielangelo]

501 original (premium) 100% cotton is still the best than the one that has elastane.

[drewheinzketchup]

I just got the 510 premiums in black, really enjoying them

[rainmanmanilajoe]

Its already been mentioned here, there are a few premium line models that have selvedge, and even with Big E red tab. They're pretty good 👍🏼

[adriandarryl]

Damn!!!, love your channel, it just feels like going in a class with such a fun teacher😅

I recently purchased a Levi's Type 1 Premium jacket that's made with hemp & cotton red selvedge. I ordered 2 but immediately felt bummed out when I received them because on the picture the red selvedge strip is exposed on the outside pocket but mine didn't have it 😔. On a brighter note I got both of them on sale for $180 & one of them has a big E tag & the other is blank.
