Since its debut in 1979, the Mobile Suit Gundam series has caught the attention of audiences with its complex narratives and characters. Set in a future where Earth is embroiled in conflicts between space colonies and the Earth Federation, the Gundam universe has explored themes of technology, humanity, and ideology. Now, the Levi’s brand, known for its iconic styles and classic garments, has teamed up with Gundam to create a futuristic collection that pays homage to this beloved franchise.
At the heart of the Gundam universe are the Gundam machines, piloted by talented individuals who find themselves at the centre of all the action. The Levi’s® x Gundam SEED collection captures the sci-fi essence of these mobile suits and the ongoing battles between different ideologies.

Leading the way in this collection are the Levi’s® x Gundam SEED ’93 501® jeans and the matching Relaxed Trucker jacket. Made from indigo denim with a light stonewash finish, both the jeans and jacket feature patterned prints of the Strike Gundam, a blue jacron backpatch, and a co-branded patch.
For those seeking a more technical look, the Levi’s® x Gundam SEED Technical Anorak is a standout piece. This boxy and slightly cropped jacket comes with silver piping, oversized utility chest pockets, straps to tie back, and a large GAT-X105 Strike Gundam graphic on the back.
