About this Style
In 1901, the license plate made its debut, a famous trumpeter was born, a man crossed the Atlantic in a box and the fifth pocket was added to 501® Jeans. Many assume this to be the coin pocket, but no—the fifth pocket is the left back pocket, half of the now-iconic Levi’s® rear view. “Jeans,” as we know them today. A year later, Levi Strauss died at 73 in California (just five years before The Great San Francisco Earthquake that devastated his adopted city). Without this final creative act, 501® jeans might never have existed.

First pair of limited LVC

I have been wearing Levi’s LVC jeans for a decade or so now and recently fell in love with cinch back jeans. I wear the 1933 501 and the 1937 pairs, religiously, and figured I needed to own these 1901 pair.
Fit- I purchased my size of 30 waist and found that it was a bit snug/true to size compared to a size 30 with the 1933’s. I worry that shrinkage may make them a tad too snug.
Denim- a very rigid, not too thick, but certainly not too thin. Very nice.
Overall, a beautiful pair of pants. I guess they are sold out now, but I guess my advice would be to size up if you plan to wash.
Q: What size do you usually wear?
A: 30, 32 (tailored to 29 length)
Q: Size Purchased
A: 30, 32
Yes, I recommend this product.
Fit, 3 out of 7, where 1 equals to Very Small and 7 equals to Very Big

Something this limited is ridiculous for the brand. All it does is pile on resentment. Why? To get press?
It’s so irritating
