Ned - The Jamaica pics look great!</p> <p>I wanted to start a thread about the Levis STF tags - you know, the little extra piece that extends off the faux leather, cardstock Levis label. The little perforated peice that says &quot;Yea...these are fresh from the factory...raw...and untouched&quot;. The one that screams &quot;rip me off&quot; but WE NEVER DO. Why? Because it is just so cool.</p> <p>Does anyone know the history of this tag or it's purpose in general? Or does anyone have any interesting tag stories? </p>
