I’m proud to announce that Levi Strauss & Co. is partnering with Everytown for Gun Safety and executives including Michael Bloomberg to form Everytown Business Leaders for Gun Safety, a coalition of business leaders who believe, as we do, that business has a critical role to play in and a moral obligation to do something about the gun violence epidemic in this country

One more leftist CEO jumping on the Bloomberg Everytown bandwagon. Glad I buy Wrangler jeans.

FULS!!

[Mr. K]

The only place there seems to be an ‘epidemic’ is in cities that have the strictest gun control

They went anti gun and anti BSA around 20 years ago. About the time I switched to Wranglers.

[alloysteel]

The competition includes something called “Wrangler” jeans.

More believable clothing for a cowboy anyway.

Yesterday I dropped NIKE, today it’s Levi’s, New Balance made in US shoes will replace NIKE and Roundhouse Jeans made in US will replace Levi’s

Yep. I remember... and I still don't buy Levi's or Dockers because of it.

[Pilated]

We haven’t used a Levi product in about 25 years... NEVER have used any Nike products our entire lives - never will.

Levi Strauss Company jumps on gun-control bandwagon

They've been on it for decades, and I haven't purchased Levi anything for 20 years because of it.

One cannot study, learn, or have GUN SAFETY without a gun.

Used to wear nothing else until they became an overpriced item living off their past. They will lose a lot of business over this kind of horse sh!t.

Thanks for posting that. I let ‘em know I won’t be purchasing any more of their products. They probably don’t care, being San Cramcrisco liberals and all, but hey, every little bit helps.

I have purchased my last pair of Levis.

[rellimpank]

-—they “jumped” on it when I lived in the Bay Area nearly 40 years ago—I started boycotting them then—

—the Strauss descendant that ran the company embraced every left-wing fantasy available then and about broke the company-—

[Wildbill22]

Boycot LS.

Done.

[ontap]

Just ripped off a message telling them I don’t buy from gun grabbers!!!

[ObozoMustGo2012]

I stopped buying Levi’s years ago when the quality of their material because crap and would rip after a few months, and their prices just went up and up.

Ive been wearing Wrangler for the past few years.

[DannyTN]

I quit buying Levi’s decades ago when they tried to gay the boy scouts.

Levis aren’t what they used to be as they wear out quickly. Have better luck with Wrangler.
