Get comfy with Levi’s Performance Cool collection

Levi's, the classic American jeans brand, introduces the Performance Cool collection intended to be comfortable in hot weather. The line includes breathable, lightweight fabrics that maintain style without limiting movement. There is a variety of denim clothing there, including jeans, skirts, vests, work shirts, and t-shirts, in light and dark washes.   

Items from the men's collection that can be worn in various ways include khaki work shirts that pair well with pants for an eased appearance. Denim vests, camo sweaters, and lake-blue short-sleeved T-shirts are further gorpcore-inspired options. Standard shorts (405) and classic slim fits (502 and 512) of pants are available for urban and outdoor life.  

Because they are designed for warm climates, light denim shirts from the women's collection work well as layering pieces in somewhat cooler conditions. These shirts may be paired with The Perfect Tee in white, sky blue, or a camouflage shirt for a splash of color. Aesthetically acceptable proportions are created by the shorter cut and boxy form, complementing various Filipino body shapes.
