Levi’s® “Movin’ On” line featured hip-hugging, flared jeans for men. The new slim-fit style came in lighter blues and even colored denim. Instead of the double-arches stitched on the back pockets, the new jeans featured a variety of decorative pocket styles. They also had no metal rivets or leather label, and the distinctive cloth tab was changed from red to orange.
