My co-worker Mike Pablo works with me at Levi's in the factory. He's an up and coming designer and my fellow fixie enthusiast. Working in the factory has its perks like having access to the embroidery machine. He has customized a lot of existing Levi's jeans by tapering them for avoiding hungry chains, a reinforced belt loop for carabiners, stylish embroideries, reflective bits, and extra pockets. The prices right now range from $80 to $100 per pair depending on how much customization is on each pair of jeans. He also, is willing to throw in a free hem for a more "custom" fit. Pretty awesome!
He is now selling out of Push Bike, which is a store in the Mission ran by a retired courier that offers cool-limited run items like hoodies, bags, and now....Steeez Electrique Jeans! Check 'em out.
