I've bought so far my Levis trousers exclusively in stores in Germany and the USA. Well I found these pants and thought, for just under 20 you can not go wrong. The pants are visually very beautiful! Something bothered me were the carvings on both knees, because it was not apparent to me why you did that. Really bothered me then has the strong chemical smell of pants !! I can not remember that my other Levis pants have so smelled me. And the pants tingled slightly as I wore them for a few minutes. There are also some Chinese labels exist inside of the pants, which have my other Levis pants not also. In addition, the small label Levis is on his trousers only mounted on the right back pocket, neither inside nor outside the waistband is Levis. Although I do think that it is a genuine Levi's, but I think that it was produced in Asia. Therefore, she went back. I buy my pants rather be back in the store.
