Levi's: Fresh Produce

Levi’s® Fresh Inspired by Fresh Produce (The Fashion Version) For Spring/Summer 2022

Back in the 1970s, Levi’s® released a collection called Fresh Produce, inspired by, well, produce. And since we all love fresh fruits and vegetables, Levi’s® figured, why not bring it back, only with a fresh (pun intended) 21st century spin. Introducing Levi’s® Fresh for Spring/Summer 2022, a beautiful range of dyed favorites featuring dyes derived from natural sources, including plants and botanicals.

Traditionally, natural based dyes tend to produce more earth-tone colors, but with Levi’s® Fresh, we applied new dyeing methods that were able to produce vibrant, icy shades of peach, lavender, pink, and yellow. And all in a mix of both yarn and garment dyed pieces.

The dyes in the Fresh collection come from one of three natural sources, including non-endangered or non-threatened plants—like madder root extract and natural indigo—agricultural byproducts—like food waste—and minerals like clays, carbonates, and natural oxides. These dyes were specially formatted to require less auxiliaries, without compromising color fastness or aesthetic, resulting in an innovative, sustainable dye process. All dyes in the collection feature a minimum of 50 percent plant or mineral content.

On: Speed Runner

Working directly with the creative team at On, Untold Studios presents the first in a series of bold and energetic films to showcase the new Cloudmonster range of running shoes.

Directed by Stefan Hunt, the 30 second film immerses viewers in a whirlwind journey set on the corner of a New York street as a keen runner flies by with curious onlookers left bemused by the speed and agility of the runner. Newspapers fly in the air as a gust of wind, hot off the heels of the runner, sends passers by into disarray.

Taking inspiration from Hollywood blockbuster movies, the spot is packed with suspense and drama, delivered with a comedic edge. Director Stefan Hunt explains, “This project was equal parts hard and fun. Hard because I so badly wanted to feature every cliche Hollywood blockbuster moment only to be reminded this was not two hours long. Fun because the world of running is full of weird and wonderful individuals and the brief was to celebrate them all. The result – I kept it simple. One runner. One movie genre. And a sprinkle of weird.”
