    1. One year of Levi’s 501 Stf and a new pair pre and post shrink
    2. These are my favorite pair of jeans I've ever had and I want to buy a new pair. I bought them sometime late 2022 early 2023 and can't find them anywhere online. Any chance someone might know a site or link where I can buy another pair?
