De Levi’s Blue Tab broek is een perfecte mix van stijl en comfort. De stof voelt stevig en kwalitatief, terwijl de pasvorm modern en flatterend is. Ideaal voor zowel casual als iets nettere outfits. Een tijdloze toevoeging aan je garderobe waar je lang plezier van hebt.

A high quality classic look and feel

a month ago
The look, feel, and fit are top tier for jeans. They are slightly unforgiving as the stretch factor is small to zero. Overall the blue tabs are the best jeans I own and will continue to buy them.

Blown away !

2 months ago
This jean is spot on! It’s a stunning repro of the kind of Levi’s I used back in the 80s, but with better finishing and materials. Really blown away by those. These jeans pack everything nice from that era (high rise, perfect thigh space, straight leg but not baggy). Not a deal breaker but if the wash was more like a real vintage wash (they do it in "cheaper” selvedge lines) these jeans would be a dream come true. Anyway, they’re almost the real thing we use to love in our teenage years and without the hassle of buying vintage pairs… My favorite pair so far.

Fantasitc jeans

2 months ago
Bought these when i was in San Frasico in the Levis store. The fit way better than then modern original 501 line. I have slightly larger thighs and always have to size up but these fit true to size and are very comfortable. I will be buying more vintage levis as the quality is amazing and the fit is perfect

Perfect.

3 months ago
If you can imagine the most perfect version of the jeans that were popular in the 80's and early 90's -- every line is laid and sewn perfectly, using the most perfect materials, and feel like they will last forever the more you wear them-- this is them.

Yes, I recommend this product.

The blueprint for denim for a reason.

3 months ago
Where do I start? Sure, they’re not the heaviest jeans you’ll own. They’re not from a renowned Japanese brand. That is okay, because these are the blueprint. The fit is unlike any other pair of MIJ denim I’ve ever purchased, the color isn’t quite raw, but it’s a beautiful dark indigo. The contrast stitching, the leather patch, the button fly. There are so many small details about these Jeans that just set it apart. They’re so versatile as well. I intentionally got a few extra inches longer on the inseam, for extra stacking and cuffing options.
