cobalt<p>Been saving this for a bit to share and see what you think. If I actually spent money for a pair of these shorts/cut-offs, someone who knows me well should do a check on me to be sure I still have all my marbles. If I learned a granddaughter thought these shorts were worth the money to buy, I would think I was an utter failure to have not conveyed to them young enough that one can do well without buying brand-name clothing and consider how to make the same thing. Oh, I don't know, maybe by CUTTING OFF a pair of jeans you already own and are worn out.

Flipboard Culture Desk<p>Just like Apple and Costco, Levi Strauss &amp; Co. was targeted by conservative think tank the National Center for Public Policy Research to drop its DEI programs. And just like those other companies, Levi's said no — more than 99% of shareholders voted against the proposal, a position also taken by the company's board. Michelle Gass, president and chief executive officer of Levi’s, told WWD earlier this year: “We’ve been committed to diversity and inclusion for literally decades, and it’s the core to who we are. So our commitment remains unchanged. We will do what’s right for our people, for our business. And at the end of the day, building a diverse and inclusive workplace helps us deliver stronger results.” Here's more.</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/ThQl3l" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/ThQl3l</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/DEI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DEI</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/DiversityEquityInclusion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DiversityEquityInclusion</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Fashion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fashion</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Lifestyle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Lifestyle</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Levis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Levis</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Costco" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Costco</span></a></p>
