Levi's launched 'The Number that Changed Everything,' an in-store pop-up dedicated to celebrating the long-running history of its iconic 501 jeans. The pop-up is located at the central Levi's location in London, England. When individuals attend the pop-up they will be able to view immersive displays and showcases that outline Levi's' clothes over time.
The main attraction of the 501 experience is a single red button that, when pressed, displays colorful visuals and immersive sounds that take the viewer on a journey through the 149-years of history associated with the 501 jeans. The experience starts by displaying the original creation of the jeans and the many other clothes that were created alongside it, and proceeds through time until the present day where only the 501 jeans are remaining out of the original creations.
