About this Style

Close your eyes. Think “jeans.” Now open. They were 501® Originals, right? With a classic straight leg and iconic styling, they’re literally the blueprint for every pair of modern jeans in existence—burned into the world’s collective cortex ever since Levi Strauss (the man himself!) introduced them in 1873. To this day they’ve never gone out of style. And they never will.


  • The original blue jeans
  • Our signature straight fit
  • A blank canvas for customization and self-expression
  • This selvedge denim is woven on a traditional shuttle loom, which gives these jeans a tighter weave for extra durability and creates the crisp, finished edge that sets them apart from the rest.
  • These jeans are Shrink-to-Fit™, meaning you control the shrinkage yourself, which allows the denim to conform to your unique body. The payoff is a pair of jeans with a custom-made fit. No tailor necessary.
  • Hold the H2O: This garment was made using recycled water, which helps us to reduce our impact on this finite resource
  • To find the right size for Shrink-to-Fit™ jeans, there are three options. 1) For the old-school technique, buy true to size in the waist and two sizes up in length. Wear them in the tub and keep them on to dry. 2) For those who want to machine wash and dry the jeans, we recommend ordering up: For your waist, increase 1" for sizes 27"-36", 2" for 38"-48", and 3" for 50" and up. And for your inseam, increase 3" for sizes 27"-34" and 4" for 36" and up. 3) For purists who like their denim unwashed, no need to size up. Buy them true to size.

THE ORIGINAL

2 months ago
I casually entered the Levi's Outlet Store at Tanger Hershey, PA. i didn't have high expectation, but i found an amazing deal. there was a pair of Levi's 501 unwashed selvedge jeans, in my size, in the markdown section! dreams do come true. I've worn them multiple times since purchasing; they've become my new go-to denim jeans.

The Best Version of the 501 Jeans!

2 months ago
The Levi’s 501 Selvedge Jeans are truly outstanding. The quality is exceptional, with a soft, premium feel and a rich, beautiful color that stands out. From the moment I put them on, the fit was spot-on—they complement my shape perfectly and highlight all the right features. If you already like the classic 501 fit, this selvedge version is a definite upgrade—more refined, more comfortable, and noticeably higher-end in both look and feel. Highly recommended!

A good price on decent selvedge

3 months ago
These jeans are pretty nice, especially for the sale price. They are not the most interesting selvedge out there (Gustin, Naked and Famous or similar), but they make a great pair of day to day pants with a classic look. I wish they came in 31x36!

Der Stoff und die Verarbeitung sind hochwertig und wirklich schön. Allerdings fällt die Hose etwas klein aus. Man sollte bei der Hose eine Nummer größer bestellen.

Durable non stretch denim as it used to be

3 months ago
The last two pair of 501 OG fit Selvedge demin I purchased lasted me about 9 years of wearing to the wood shop. They are work clothes to me so I don't wash after every wear and also don't care if they are dirty as only the wood machines see me. Reduced washings may have help extend the life of them. Solid fit with button fly.

got exactly what i ordered and am very happy with my purchase, the fact that someone got a jean jacket instead or someone has a sizing issue only says how sometimes mistakes are made but that is true of any big company and really doesnt help someone who is looking for a good pair of jeans.

Elevated wash and fit

4 months ago
The fit is great almost a little more fitted than my regular 501’s. The wash is very on point looks elevated and faded in the right spots. The length is perfect I am 5’11 and bought at 32 length. I can’t wait for the first wash to see how these change over time.

Genuint äkta selvedgekänsla

4 months ago
Stor skillnad på tyget jämfört med vanliga 501:or. Tätare väv, styvare känsla, underbar blå färg efter första tvätten. Krymper cirka 2 tum i midjan och 1 tum på längden. Kan väl jämföras med vintagekollektionen, men till halva priset. Etikett i läder och "Big E" på röda flärpen på bakfickan - helt i klassisk stil plus den snygga selvedgen. Så här var min barndoms Levi's (på 1960-talet). Man blir nostalgisk...:)

Premium brand for a reason.

5 months ago
Very comfortable, fit as described and sit nice and low on the waist as expected. They look great and if you have slightly thicker thighs, as I do, don’t feel tight there at the loss of any actual styling, which often happens with less premium brands. This is my first pair of Levi’s, they won’t be my last.

Yes, I recommend this product.

This Is Original

5 months ago
High quality, very well made; iconic straight jeans look. They sit at waist, so if I let it slide below, they seem long and allow for cuffing. I like them at the waist as designed though. They also have that no-stretch and no-zip original feel that is very special.
