What do you expect from a San Francisco based company? I have not purchased a pair of levi's in years.

I stopped buying Levis years ago when they stopped supporting Boy Scouts because they would not allow gay scout leaders.

Duh.....

I'm a wrangler guy myself. Never cared for the Levi's anyway.

No secret there it's been public knowledge as long as there have been an internet.

Peaon · « **Reply #8 on:** February 10, 2010, 06:14:36 PM »

Wranglers, Big Smith, Pointer, Liberty, Carhartt......plenty others to choose from

has anyone actually checked to see which ones SUPPORT nra or pro-2nd agendas? if wrangler checks out okay.. what about Lee?

They're way over priced for me.I buy my Rustler's at Walmart.Made by Wrangler.Probably come from China,but I can buy three pairs for what one pair of Levis cost.They don't wear as good as Levis,but for the money that's what I wear.Slow

I buy Rustler brand at Kmart. Usually on sale for $10. Yea, I know I'm cheap, and there made over seas, but, even with a kevlar apron, they don't last more than a few months in the welding shop. gypsyman

Every since they tried to put the screws to the Boy Scouts of Americe I've been calling them "SheGuy" jeans.

Dang, and I thought he was dead.

Dont buy Ben & Jerry's, or use AARP either.

They are all commies

I was getting ready to get a couple pair of 501s. Guess that's out. Dickies work ok or work, Wranglers or Lees for casual wear now I guess.

Why can't people and businesses get in their lane and stay there. Most of us are big boys or girls and can decide for ourselves whether or not we want to own and play with firearms.

Communist make me want to use words verboten on this forum.

id like to boycott aarp ..but my life insurance is withum..i sure couldn t get any to replace existing policy ..

Swampman · « **Reply #17 on:** February 12, 2010, 12:12:01 AM »

If anyone else made nice looking jeans I'd buy them. The wife prefers the 501s and so do I.

Levis are made in China.

GH1 · « **Reply #18 on:** February 12, 2010, 01:01:19 AM »

I haven't worn a pair of Levi's for years, don't care for the way they fit me. Lately I've been wearing Dickies cotton duck pants, they're similar to the Carrharts. I don't know where they stand on gun rights though.

Never liked Levi's myself. They don't fit the way I like 'em. I'll take Big Smith or Key for my choice, and Wranglers, of course. Quit AARP a long time ago and wrote them a letter telling them why. I don't buy Phillips-Conoco products either.

i send all my NRA solicitations out
in the pre-paid postage envelopes from the AARP

and often include a note stating why i cannot do business with democrats or communist

i know thats a redundant phrase ''democrats or communist''

We should email the stores that sell this brand not to cayy it anymore. Gander Mountain carries that brand.

Swampman · « **Reply #22 on:** February 12, 2010, 07:41:50 AM »

Walmart carries them but they don't have 501s. I pay about $34.00 a pair for them at your better clothing stores.

Slim rem7
AARP markets other co's products they really don't sell . Look around might find something .

I go with Wrangler slim cut (can't stand baggie pants) from Tractor supply. You can catch them on sale for under $20.
