WTF logo is on this fabric?

March 30, 2008 2:15 PM

I just bought some interesting fabric from an enormous textile discount place. See link for crappy cellphone picture. Obviously, the pattern incorporates a logo (there is a teeny registered trademark sign inside each square), but I cannot place it. Any ideas? Someday, it will be a bag or maybe a skirt and I'd like to know who or what I'm wearing. Thanks!

Levi's L2 Jeans. I think they are extinct, but here's a pair on ebay.

Hmm. I'm not convinced by the L2 suggestion -- it's very similar, but the Levi's logo clearly has an L and a 2.

What kind of fabric is it?

loiseau, look at the logo in the top left of thewrongparty's picture. Isn't that clearly an L and a 2? It looks exactly like the Levi's logo to me.

It seems to be thin but stiff cotton, maybe a poly-cotton blend. It would not be surprising if it represented something defunct.

It looks like there were several variations on the design for the L2 jeans.
here vs. here

Though, neither of those looked quite as squarish as what I've got. Seems like a good bet...

At first I thought it was Enron logo. It looks very finance/software company to me.

Look at the picture on the ebay page that shows the tag. Identical.

Definitely L2. I used to consult with Levi's in the L2 days.
