It is actually Levi's VS Lee VS Wrangler, a little throuple situation going on. Each has their strength and weaknesses but they all unite on one front: their older stuff is better quality than their newer stuff. If you can find a thrifted pair of any of these brands you'll be in much better shape than the new stuff while also being sustainable. The summary though is that Levis is fashionable, Wrangler has leaned into its workwear/cowboy image, and Lee sort of fluctuates between both without doing either well. Hope that helps!
