Here's the IG link to a pack opening. These are an awesome mixture of sports/nonsport. The checklist is : Hailey Bieber, Emma Chamberlain, Jaden Smith, Marcus Rashford, Naomi Osaka, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and Barbie Ferreira. They all have autographs and auto relics (very limited)

The base has the following parallels: red/50, blue/25, silver (or gray)/5 and gold/1. I don't think the autos and relics have parallels.

Hey Jess,

This is why, if I had my own business, I wouldn't give anything away as a free promotion unless it was an unadvertised perk. Which of course defeats the idea of having a promotion entirely, but you want to be doing it for your customers and to get more customers. The people who are after these card packs will not be returning for jeans and they will pay as little as possible to qualify for the purchase. Meanwhile the people who actually are your customers get shut out and they get mad. You can't win.

The same sentiment takes over certain celebrities when they are approached for autographs or get mail requests and consistently see the same people asking. They know whatever they sign is being put up for sale and that this is not just a fan, but a paid free lancer who runs straight to an autograph seller. So they don't like being used and they stop signing in public or TTM.

Which ruins it for real fans who want the autograph as a keepsake and now have little chance of getting a free one and are disappointed when turned down.

I'm not on Instagram so the page won't display for me. I recognize maybe two of the signers. I didn't know Levi's had its own stores. There are none near me.

Sets like this are so bizarre because like others have pointed out it's going to be difficult for anyone to put together a whole set and does anybody actually want a complete set? I guess hardcore fans of the celebrities (?) may want an auto card.

That said, I actually like weird little promotional sets like these.

How many cards are in the base set ? Just 7 or 8 ?

So one pack gives you the 8 base cards (a set) and the possibility of a "hit", and yet people are selling sets and packs on ebay for $ 500 ?

The website says that if you order a pair of jeans directly from Levi's on line, they mail you a pack of cards in the pocket of the jeans.

Just got real lucky and was given a set from a friend who bought a pair of jeans a month ago. He told me there was a bunch of sets sitting there and he could have taken as many as he wanted but asked and they told him all were the same so he just grabbed once. I need to train them better! Glad to not have to pay $200 to get one!
