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.

This Is Original

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.

Tolle Qualität. Fester Denim. Absolut kein Stretch! Am Anfang leicht steif aber nie bretthart. Sehr schöne Webkante. Wird mit der Zeit bequemer. Mit dem Waschen werde ich so lange wie möglich warten.

Getting it in, in my original fit 501 selvedege

6 months ago
I am a 58 yo, old school denim dude, and I have been wearing Levi’s since the 70’s. Levi’s premium, will always be a go to, when it comes to high quality denim, for me. As for the 501 original selvedge, the fit, style, quality and craftsmanship is upper tier. I only wish they were made in the USA.

Jeans levis 501 con cimosa

Questi 501 levis con cimosa si sono rivelati semplicemente idilliaci,il colore blu è irresistibilmente piacevole la lavorazione a navetta lascia il jeans comodo da indossare già solo dopo un lavaggio. Acquisto sicuramente ripetibile.

Very similar to original selvedge 501s

6 months ago
Similar style and feel as my original 1970s selvedge 501s. Not shrink to fit, but they feel pretty good. Not sure O am a shrink to fit shape any longer. Very pleased with these, I have been waiting for Levi’s to produce relatively affordable selvedge jeans for many years now.

Très beau jean 501

6 months ago
Un Jean 501 original de qualité comme je portais il y a longtemps. la couleur est très jolie et la toile est très solide car épaisse . Par contre faire attention au premier lavage car le jean rétrécit de au moins 10% sur la longueur donc si vous souhaitais faire un revers je vous conseil de faire le premier lavage à froid sur un programme court pas plus d'une heure

Back to Levi‘s after many years

Excellent fabric, was huge and stiff, ordered one whole size too big and washed it hot. After two washes, it shrunk to my size and softened. Now it feels very nice. Looking forward to having it for a long time.

First pair of Levi’s in years and very happy.

Nice classic straight leg fit. Exactly what I would expect. The raw selvedge is a nice quality. I’m 6,2 and was still able to do a double cuff roll on a 32 length, so imagine the 34 would be quite long. Would definitely purchase again, especially on sale.

"Old School" 501s!

Great quality sevedge jeans. Really stiff denim when new. I ordered my normal size and they were a bit large but after washing there was slight shrinkage and they now fit perfectly. They remind me of my first Levi's in the early 70's.
