My prayers for a better jean, the best jean which had to be the original, have been answered. I knew what I wanted and have been searching for years, some 40 years. You see, I’m Gen X and I had a pair of 501’s button downs in my 20’s. They must have been a pair for boys because I don’t think you made them for girls at that time. Somewhere along the line, I lost them and I never forgot them. They were with me in the absolute darkest time of my life. A time I can never speak of but they bore witness to it, the threads had the experience with me. I’m in an amazing place in my life! I found a deep love that most people can only dream about, I have children who love me and friends who are ride or die. And now I have my 501’s who will be with me through my 3rd Act, until the curtain comes down. Thank you Levi’s! 🩷

J’en ai acheté deux identiques tellement j’en suis heureuse. En terme de taille, je recommande d’acheter votre taille habituelle et surtout pas deux tailles au-dessus. En le rétrécissant, vous obtiendrez la taille que vous recherchez. En revanche, je recommande de prendre une taille supplémentaire dans la longueur, car car dans mon cas il a rétréci beaucoup plus en longueur qu’en largeur…

These are my first selvage 501 original jeans in the dark wash. I was nervous knowing that they were wash/shrink to fit. I read a lot about what size to order. I ended up deciding on ordering my regular size 27 — they came and were very, very big. I had my doubts but with a deep breath and some faith I threw them into the wash machine - regular wash - hot temperature!! Then put them in the dryer. I had no idea how this was all going to turn out. Well - I put them on once dried and THEY FIT PERFECTLY!!! I love them — have worn them daily since then … i will absolutely order again!! These are the best fit and jean I’ve owned from Levi (and I only buy Levi jeans!) Now, I ordered a 30” length — next time I will order my regular size with the 32” length.

Finally found a longlasting pair of classic jeans. I love that its selvedge and rigid. The classic 501 is a forever style for me, not gonna follow trends anymore. I ordered it in my size and it is roomy because its shrink to fit! You have to soak it in water for an hour thrn hang dry before using it. A lot of negative reviews because people are not familiar with STF selvedge. These are jeans you wear for life because they fit you. I love these so much I bought another pair. I used to hate 501s as a teen in the 90s but love them now because I learned how to style them and thry are so flattering and classic!

Bij de maatvoering stond ''valt groter'' maar ik heb toch mijn gebruikelijke maat gekocht. Prachtig, viel lekker ruim en nonchalant en hij was aan de lange kant. Ik ben 178 maar met lengtemaat 32 viel hij tot op de hiel. Ik ben slank en heb een post menopause buikje. De jeans geeft de illusie van wat meer bil en camoufleert mijn buik een beetje. En toen heb ik hem gewassen ...... 6 centimeter gekrompen in de lengte, hij hangt boven mijn enkels. Ik heb geprobeerd de broek weer op lengte te strijken, maar helaas. In de taille is hij een klein beetje gekrompen en zit nu alsof hij voor speciaal op maat gemaakt is voor mij. Zit erg lekker en mooi na het wassen, alleen jammer van de lengte. Ik heb er nog een besteld, besloten om die helemaal NIET te wassen. En het paar dat ik al had mag lekker slijten en misschien dat ik de zoom er uit haal. Er zat bij beide jean vertraging in de bezorging, maar ik ontving keurig netjes een email met een update. Die dingen gebeuren nou eenmaal. Jammer dat deze jeans niet in lengtemaat 34 komt.

Got the 24. They fit big but washed in cold and the length shrunk more then the waist which I was happy about. Also mold to the body after the wash

I'm so thrilled with these! I consider them my "forever" jeans :). I went to the Levi's store to try them on and make sure to get 2 sizes over my regular size, and bought them in a size 29 waist x 28 inseam. I first washed them cold and hung them to dry, but they needed additional shrinking, so I then washed them in hot water and put them in the dryer and they are PERFECT! These are the exact jeans that I've been looking for for years!

Amazing jeans! I own two pairs- my regular size and one size down. I like the fit of both. Truly my favorite!
