▍原文
When historians look back on the summer of 2018, they will talk about the record-breaking heatwave, the World Cup – and Levi's T-shirts.
On the train, in the park, at the art gallery; they are everywhere.
Levi's says that revenues from online sales grew 19% in the second quarter of 2018.
Could it be that in these frighteningly uncertain times, a classic brand such as Levi's feels reassuring?
