From Levi's Site: Since 1873, we’ve made timeless clothes that are built to endure. But style shouldn’t come at the expense of the environment. Our solution: the Levi’s® WellThread™ Collection. These low-impact garments can be kept and worn for many years and –– when it’s time, and where the technology exists –– easily recycled. We follow the industry’s strictest guidelines for material assembly: every material that goes into the fabric is recyclable. We reimagined our best-selling high-rise, the Ribcage, with cottonized hemp, which requires less water and fewer pesticides to grow.
