"In 1853, Levi Strauss, an immigrant from Bavaria, opened a dry goods company in San Francisco at the height of the California Gold Rush. While he was working, he recognized a need among hardworking people: clothes built to endure anything. He and tailor Jacob Davis combined copper rivet reinforcements with tough denim, leading to the first manufactured waist overalls in 1873. Today, we call them "blue jeans," the official website says.

"What started as an invention for the American worker became the uniform of progress. Worn by miners, cowboys, rebels, rock stars, presidents and everyday men and women, these functional pieces were the clothes people not only worked in—they lived their lives in, too. But Levi’s® are more than that. They’re the purest wearable form of authentic self-expression.

"They bear the markings of life, the shapes of our bodies, the memories of our adventures. Levi Strauss & Co. is one of the world’s largest apparel companies and a global leader in jeans. We have some 500 stores worldwide, and our products are available in more than 100 countries. The Levi’s® brand is just part of our story. We’re also home to Dockers® and Denizen®."

"Levi Strauss & Co. is an American clothing company known worldwide for its Levi's brand of denim jeans. It was founded in May 1853 when German-Jewish immigrant Levi Strauss moved from Buttenheim, Bavaria, to San Francisco, California, to open a west coast branch of his brothers' New York dry goods business. Although the corporation is registered in Delaware, the company's corporate headquarters is located in Levi's Plaza in San Francisco.

"German-Jewish immigrant Levi Strauss started his trading business at the 90 Sacramento Street address in San Francisco and then moved the location to 62 Sacramento Street. In 1858, the company was listed as Strauss, Levi (David Stern & Levis Strauss) importers clothing, etc. 63 & 65 Sacramento St. (Today, on the current grounds of the 353 Sacramento Street Lobby) in the San Francisco Directory with Strauss serving as its sales manager and his brother-in-law, David Stern, as its manager.

"Jacob Davis, a Latvian-Jewish immigrant, was a Reno, Nevada tailor who frequently purchased bolts of denim cloth from Levi Strauss & Co.'s wholesale house. After one of Davis's customers kept purchasing cloth to reinforce torn pants, he had an idea to use copper rivets to reinforce the points of strain, such as on the pocket corners and at the base of the button fly. Davis did not have the money needed to purchase a patent, so he wrote to Strauss suggesting that they go into business together. After Strauss accepted Davis's offer, on May 20, 1873, the two men received U.S. Patent 139,121 from the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The patented rivet was later incorporated into the company's jean design and advertisements." (Wikipedia)

"OK let me start with saying this store is super clean and everyone was so sweet from the greeter to the person in the register. If you have time please stop by Levi's and get some basic t shirts they are the best."

"Seriously the best service I ever had in a store. People left and right popping out of everywhere offering to help. "What size? I'll find that for you". Downstairs same thing. Brought some tshirts."

"Nice big store with helpful staff. Plenty of inventory to look through. Big selection and great location. I recommend to stop here if ur in Times Square. They have more then jeans to look at."

"I was pleasantly surprised that all the employees at this location were helpful but chill and knew when to just let me shop. As well, they had multiple check out stations which made it so easy to get in and get out. Great experience!"

"This is one of the nicest Levi's stores I've ever visited, and I was very surprised given the amount of traffic that probably hits this location because it is smack dab in the middle of Times Square. The location is huge but very well organized and clean. The staff is very helpful and the layout of the store makes it easy to navigate as a customer. I actually visited twice during my 3 day trip in New York, and both times were great."

"If you are lucky enough to go to Times Square and like Levis - visit this store. We went back a couple of times and always found staff helpful. Between 2 of us we purchased 5 pairs of jeans for the price of 2 back here in the UK. Go to the back (left hand side) to see the reduced stock. Very tidy store."

"Great service is delivered here. Staff are very friendly and helpful with sizes & inform you of any offers available."

"Went in with friends and I wasn't looking to purchase anything. However there was a 50% off sale. I got my best pair of fitting jeans for $12.50! The fit was fantastic. Sales staff were helpful and friendly despite the rush."

"A great store and what a real bargain. Paying about £25 for a pair of buttoned 501s. Can not go wrong at all so brought 5 pairs."

"We couldnt below how cheap the prices were in this Levis store compared to Australia. the staff were so helpful, and we walked out with 4 pairs of jeans and a denim jacket for less than you can pay for one pair of Levis here."

"I bought some Jeans and top. I like the products variety, and staff were friendly."
