14. Good morning!
Fri Apr 25, 2025, 07:51 AM
Yesterday

I just want to let people know that Levi's isn't a good old-fashioned apple pie American company based out of San Francisco anymore. During the Reagan '80s when our factories were shuttered and jobs sent to Mexico, Levi's was still made here. When they finally left it was a punch to the gut.
