Gaydar is pegged to the max.
-—not new for Levi’s—they got on the anti-gun bandwagon nearly forty years ago (along with every other left wing California fantasy) and nearly broke the company-—
Collective corporate suicide. You can’t fix stupid.
I wonder if China tells these CEO’s “If you want access to our market, these are the political positions that we want you to take”.
If I am a Levi Strauss stockholder, I am cursing this idiot every way I can.
The only ones who can bring guns into stores are those who will shoot up.your customers...rob or kill store workers or cuhrazy scofflawa....all others keep.your guns away..who is levi strauss gonna call when someone does bring a gun into.the store anyway? Someone with a denim knife?
I didn't know Levis had stores. So, they don't want me there with a gun, but since a gun is an inanimate object, then it must be me they don't like. Well, I won't go where I am not wanted, and my gun and my money will stay with me.
Get woke, go broke.
Levis are overpriced anyway.
If they want to do something useful start making some of their clothing out of Kevlar.
I’ll bet a Kevlar lined denim jacket would sell.
Stopped buying Levi’s years ago when the became a LOT more expensive than Wrangler and Lee in Walmart...
If there was a firearm discharge in one of his stores, either accidentally, or out of stupidity...
To be sure there is a lawyer attached to every bullet, and with that comes liability court cases. I’m wondering if Strauss is just trying to avoid any future liability issues due to idiots walking around with guns strapped on.
There are MANY people who carry and they know what they are doing, but then again there are many people who really, absolutely, need training because they do not practice safe gun handling, I have seen it time and time again - Safe handling protocols, and proficiencies are lacking, if not totally ignored altogether.
Continous training and keeping current with YOUR method of self preservation should be a given, but is very often not the case at all.
I know. Levi strauss is robbing the public....you can get jeans of near quality for almost 1/3 of price of levi’s. Kiss Levi’s good bye.
This is going to be a tough one, Levi’s are the best jeans. sure you can get Wrangler and Lee’s cheaper, but they look like Wrangler and Lee.
Crap, I gotta sit down and think about this!
Levi has been anti gun ownership for years
Nothing new for them
It occurs to me that maybe these leftist run companies don’t realize something obvious to us. Do they realize how easy it is, truly easy, to abandon their products? Nike and Levi’s.... You come out in support of measures I disagree with, I’ll look at other products first. But when you come out in support of a leftist agenda I vehemently disagree with and believe is bad for my Country... I’ll never purchase your products again. The thing is, that’s no real sacrifice on my part. There are lots of alternatives to your products. I can decide you’re dead to me over morning cereal and never look back. Companies would do well to simply stick to the business at hand, mind their markets. But that’s not how lefties operate. To them it’s not enough that they hold their leftist beliefs. No, they feel compelled to not only evangelize them but also impose them on others. The very antithesis of “liberal” and diversity and tolerance and acceptance and all those other lies they cloak themselves in.
My local Walmart doesn't even carry Levis, but they do sell ammunition...
I’m not so sure it’s “suicide”. Nike saw a 31% increase in sales. A dip in their stock for a day and now it’s moving back up. Makes me sad to think that Americans buy something so anti American as Nike.
Levis does not really serve the farm/ranch/working man demographic anymore. They have ceded that portion of the market to Wrangler. They have gone, almost exclusively, into the urban and suburban fashion conscious market.
The interesting question is whether the urban hipster brand can survive untethered from the authentic working man root. Or will tomorrow’s hipsters shun Levis in favor of the still authentic Wranglers they seen worn by their auto mechanic, construction workers, and country cousins.
