Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company changed its segment reporting as a result of operational changes in support of the ongoing efforts to globally integrate the Levi's Brands business, which includes Levi's®, Signature by Levi Strauss & Co.™ and Denizen® brands, and separate the Dockers® business. The Levi's business is defined geographically in three operating segments: Americas, Europe and Asia. The Dockers® business, which is managed separately, will no longer be reported in the three geographical regions of Americas, Europe and Asia.
Therefore, there are three reportable segments: Americas, Europe, and Asia, collectively comprising the Company's Levi's Brands business, and Other Brands, which includes Dockers® and the newly acquired Beyond Yoga® business, which do not meet the quantitative thresholds for reportable segments and therefore are presented under the caption of Other Brands. While this reporting change did not impact consolidated results, the segment data has been recast to be consistent for all periods presented throughout the financial statements and related notes.
The Company considers its chief executive officer to be the Company’s chief operating decision maker. The Company’s chief operating decision maker manages business operations, evaluates performance and allocates resources based on the segments’ net revenues and operating income.
Business segment information for the Company is as follows:
