These are either fake or Levi don't know how to make denim jackets anymore, only bought it because my old XL is to small, but the difference in quality are worlds apart.
The collar is stitched so badly that it pulls the whole jacket out of shape.
My gut feeling is Amazon chucking out fakes via 3rd parties and not checking properly.
I thought I purchased from Amazon UK, but it came from some outlet in Germany.
Just warning others that is all, purchase at your own risk.

From the manufacturer
YOU WEAR JEANS. YOU LIVE IN LEVI’S.
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 hard-working 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”.
LEVI'S TAB VARIATIONS.

|
|
|---|---|---|
Levi's & LEVI'S Tab.In the early 1970s, instead of all-caps “LEVI’S”, it changed to a title-case “Levi’s” — with a lowercase “e.” The “E” font differentiation became a mark among collectors of a vintage piece. Its evolution made it more of a timestamp for collectors and fans of the brand worldwide. |
Levi's Tab with no logo.In order to protect the company’s exclusive legal right to market clothes with the tab, Levi’s needs to produce a percentage of products with a plain tab and just the (R) symbol to show that Levi’s owns legal rights in the Tab itself, not just in Levi’s brand. |
Levi's Tab color variations.Different Levi's Tab's colors represented different lines of clothing, from corduroy flares to boot-cut jeans to a whole category of women’s wear. Levi's tabs can be found in black, blue, orange, red, silver and white. |

Other reviewers here have also stated that they are fake because there was an ‘R’ on the red tab with no Levi’s written, this is something that happens for roughly every 100 jackets and tabs with just the ‘R’ on can be found in the Levi’s stores. Thankfully mine had the full tab as I would have been a bit upset even though it’s genuine. The buttons are matte black which may seem fake but are also seen in Levi’s stores. I don’t know how the colour would fare in the wash but I plan to avoid that if possible as all black denim will inevitably fade eventually.
So overall, it’s what I expected. I’m sad that the quality is not the same anymore but time to move on. It’s hard to find jet black denim jackets and the one on here is is relatively cheap.

Thinner and does smell, but I think it’s genuine
By Sydney on 11 October 2018
I’m a petite girl but wanted a jacket that wasn’t tight and short like women’s jackets often are, so I opted for this one in a XS based off other jackets I have by Levi’s and it’s fits as I expected: nice and form fitting but has enough room for a hoodie and cuts just below the waist. It’s got 4 external pockets and 2 large internal pockets but the fabric doesn’t feel like the denim compared to old Levi’s jackets, more just like a thick stiff cotton without the slight silky feel, but that may have something to do with the dye as it is jet black. It does also smell chemically as other reviewers said, but people have also said this on the Levi site along with comments how the jackets are now thinner, so again, that may just be something to do with the colour Berkman.By Sydney on 11 October 2018
