I think they're just the ones that are sold in Europe. When I lived in Germany in the 1980s, I bought Levi's 501s made in Europe. They were similar to those you could buy in the States, except that the cut was a little different, a little slimmer. Other than that, I couldn't tell much difference.

Yeah, all 501s sold in Europe are Limited Edition.

Not too many Americans know this, but the union itself is a Limited Edition and regular production will begin for A/W 2013.
