Levi Strauss & Co. launched “A Care Tag for Our Planet” in partnership with Goodwill® to keep billions of pounds of unwanted clothing out of landfills. Levi’s® was the first major retailer to include messaging on product care tags encouraging people to wash in cold, line dry and donate to Goodwill.

Care Tag for the Planet

For more than 155 years, Levi Strauss & Co. has been a pioneer – both in our original clothes and by leading with our values.

“As a company, Levi Strauss & Co. is committed to building sustainability into everything we do.”

John Anderson, CEO, Levi Strauss & Co.

Our research shows that it’s important to ask consumers to join this conversation, as a significant environmental impact from our products happens after consumers take their clothes home from the store.

Why Care?

Laundry habits have a big impact on the planet. A third-party life cycle assessment of Levi’s® 501 jeans and Dockers® Original Khakis showed that the greatest opportunity for improving environmental sustainability exists once consumers have taken their clothes home. Simple care and recycling guidelines can go a long way toward reducing the climate change impact of our clothes.

What You Can Do To Help:

  1. Wash in cold water.
  2. Wash less.
  3. Line dry.
  4. Donate to Goodwill when no longer needed.

Sustainability is a global issue that impacts every country and every community. By following these simple care instructions, you can help make a big difference in reducing the footprint of your clothes.
