Karyn Hillman, Chief Product Officer at Levi’s Strauss & Co.: “We are excited to debut our Levi’s Fresh collection, a vibrant mix of super soft tees, fleece, and denim made with natural dyes and water saving techniques. Taking inspiration from our archives, we infused each piece with youthful energy borrowed from the original ‘70s Levi’s Fresh Produce line.

Filmed in Los Angeles, the bright sunshine paired with vibrant colourways and 70’s aesthetic expertly conveys the 70’s style inspiration behind the collection. With accompanying music played via a cassette tape, Hurley’s attention to detail has helped to achieve the feeling of a 1970s summer. 

Netti Hurley, Director, Stink Rising: “As always, I love to be part of promoting a collection that is sustainable, and the colours of the natural dyes looked amazing on camera, especially on 16mm.”

Ryland Burns, Executive Producer, Stink: “Going into the campaign, Levi’s goal was simple, capture the light-hearted energy of their brand and showcase their new line of sustainably dyed clothing. Netti’s natural ability to capture youthful vitality, and her fundamental goal to involve herself in meaningful work made her a perfect fit to direct these ads.” 

Burns added, “Netti and her DP Russ Fraser chose to shoot on 16mm to give the films a nostalgic feel. This aesthetic decision paired with the quaint residential neighbourhood we found in sunny Pomona ended up being a perfect combination to accomplish the fresh and carefree spirit Levi’s has always embodied as a brand.”
