Levi's opens pop-up tailor shop in Braamfontein
Levi's is celebrating 50 years of its iconic Type III Trucker jacket by opening a pop-up tailor shop in 70 Juta Street Braamfontein, open to the public only until 14 October 2017.
All customisations done to any Levi’s jacket will be free of charge and visitors to the Levi's Tailor Shop can choose from the various techniques available on the menu such as paint flick, dip & dye, patches, cuts, distressing, spray on stencils, fabric pens and accessories. Levi’s denim jackets will be available to purchase at the Tailor Shop for R599 but customers can also bring in their much loved and well-worn Levi’s jackets for an update.
Adding a local twist to the customisation offering, the shop will host an array of local artists who will be available to customise denim jackets through their own unique craft.
