We discovered Greek and Roman statues during The Renaissance with the look of white pristine marble.
then made a cultural association with that look and now it seems we can’t shake it.
It became the gold standard so when we see a color restoration with vibrant colors immediately it’s taken as knock off trash. This is due to the colors chosen in the reconstruction being done by modern artists.
Also, there may be some intentionality with making the reconstructions bad to generate buzz from the reactions. Aka trolling.
I’m guessing they have the pc there just for this video because it’s connected via hdmi to the tv and they are using it to play the video they made of these intros.
You know you’re making a bad faith point? That’s just not the reality we live in.
I mean if they wore a bright baby blue 70s suit with those classic over extended undershirt lapels, I’d comment, but the most we get in variation is John Fetterman.
How can you comment on content that doesn’t exist, they all wear traditional suits.
So I think you’re gonna want to go with Levi premium, this is only available online or in an actual Levi outlet stores.
The numbers like 501, 511 or whatever never indicate quality and only indicate design specifications
Levi Strauss is what you usually find in something like Walmart stores, and is partially polyester. Levi original is the next step and that’s at like Macy’s and other department stores. Levi’s shrink to fit is raw denim, but hard to find nowadays most likely at an Levi outlet as well. $50-$100
Premium is right above the middleground, better quality denim and sewing work.
Then there is Levi’a Made and Crafted / Levi Japan / Blue Tab(high quality denim and uses the originally indigo dye for the jeans) about $300+
Lastly Vintage is recreated versions of their ancient jeans, similar in quality to Levi Japan.
Agreed, the bar is so low that I’ll be surprised if something is done on any level
