Levi’s, the quintessential purveyor of timeless American fashion, and BEAMS, the beloved Japanese clothing powerhouse, join forces once again for their highly anticipated fourth capsule collection. This time around, the collaboration introduces the Super Wide V2, a nod to Levi’s heritage, with bold and widened pieces inspired by classic styles and washes, all drawn from the subtle, simple, and elegant garments of 1944.
The Levi’s x BEAMS Super Wide V2 Collection – A Fusion of Heritage and Modernity
This collaboration brings forth the Super Wide V2 Type I Trucker (S$399.90), the Super Wide V2 Jean (S$379.90), and a Graphic Tee (S$69.90). The Super Wide V2 Type I Trucker, inspired by the 1944 Levi’s jean jacket, boasts heavy 16 oz. custom Orange Tick selvedge denim. It features a custom super wide leather back patch, four shanks, and a BEAMS exclusive tab, all doubling down on the width of the iconic Two-Horse Pull patch.
Super Wide V2 Jean – Embracing the 1944 Aesthetic
Pair your Trucker with the Super Wide V2 Jean, a tribute to the 1944 501 jean. Crafted from exclusive Orange Tick selvedge denim developed for BEAMS, it echoes the BEAMS exclusive tab and custom super wide leather back patch. Available in both a lighter vintage wash and a darker rinse wash, exclusive to BEAMS, this jean is a must-have for any denim aficionado.
Graphic Tee – A Blank Canvas with Co-Branded Magic
Complete your look with the white Graphic Tee – a blank canvas on the front, adorned with co-branded graphics and a screen-printed ‘stitched’ arcuate on the back. Priced at S$69.90, it’s the perfect finishing touch to the Super Wide V2 ensemble.
Levi’s x BEAMS Super Wide V2 Campaign: A Fusion of Tradition and Modernity
Featuring a diverse cast of 9 models, the campaign unfolds against the backdrop of traditional Japanese landscapes, merging bamboo forests and cobblestone pavements with studio aesthetics. This collision of worlds creates a visual tapestry of a familiar, yet unfamiliar Japan, celebrating the fusion of tradition and modernity.
