To this day they've never gone out of style. And they never will.

I finally have some 501's again!

3 years ago
I'm a 70's gal and I had 501's when I was young. A few years ago I bought some 501's but they were ankle length and while I do like them, there really isn't a great season where I live to wear them. It's too cold in the winter and once that passes it's hotter than you know what and you have to wear very cool clothing but these are full length and the real thing. As far as I remember, they are just like the one's I wore in the 70's. Maybe the material isn't as good, I can't tell, but I've seen people say that in reviews. I love them.

It’s complicated but good

3 years ago
Okay so I own several pairs of skinny 501’s and having a hard time giving up on skinny style inspite of the new baggier style jeans, so kill me. I’m 60. I have always loved the classic style of the original 501s but assumed that I would have to order the same size waist that I do in the 501 skinny—not so. I wear 28-29 in the skinny and a 28 in the original 501 for those who may be uncertain . I find that the classic 501 seems a little tighter at the hip but not uncomfortable for my silhouette (I’m a skinny pear honestly.) 😂 I love my 501 originals because no other brand comes close to the quality. So skinny pears unite and find your perfect size—keep trying if you miss it the first time. You won’t regret it! You will have these around for a long time and take it from me, the style is ageless.

The best jeans

3 years ago
These are the best jeans. The 501 100% cotton are iconic and soooo flattering. I’m usually a size 10 and had to size up to a 32 due to the lack of stretch but this style will literally be the only thing I buy from now on. Love the wash.

Love the jeans, love the fit, love the quality. I purchased my normal size with is 24. It was so hard to button it up at first but few tries and it was ok. It does stretch out a little after first wear so keep that in mind. Yes f you don’t like a skin tight fit then size up one size for some extra room

Fit just like I expected

My first pair of jeans I’ve bought on-line. I have other 501 crop jeans so was hoping they fit the same. I bought size 30 and usually about a size 9. When I measured hips it said to go to 31 but I think they would be too big once worn. Anyway great service from Levi.

Magnifique mais petit

4 years ago
J’adore! Super classique! Effets usés bien placés et bien faits. Coupe superbe et flatteuse. Le 0% elastase ou 100% coton offre une super durabilité et un beau look, mais il faut calculer prendre au moins une ou 2 tailles plus grandes pour être confortable. Ce n’est pas qu’il est taillé petit. Il est taillé de la taille habituelle de Levi’s, c’est qu’à la taille et aux hanches sans élasticité c’est très inconfortable si on ne prévoit pas prendre plus grand pour avoir l’espace s’asseoir.

Glad i tried them out

I normally wear skinny jeans but i branched out and tried a new fit. While i think these jeans would look better on someone a bit more curvy, i still really like the fit. They are high waisted and i really like the buttons instead of a zip. Great quality as always from Levis.

Good fit!

4 years ago
I bought my usual size 27 and fits great. I was worried the 32" length would be to long, but it's perfect for that relaxed look I was after. They do feel a tad bigger than other 27th from levis, but there's no way I would fit into a 26. Im happy with my purchase and this will probably be one of my favorate pants!

Awesome cut and really good quality!

5 years ago
I LOVE these pants! I have been wearing them so much that I am going to have to buy another pair or two in the same style. I am tall 5’9” but I have a long torso and a thin waist with bigger hips. I was worried that these wouldn’t be long enough. I do wish they were a bit longer but these hit right at my the top of my feet with a tiny bit of fold. The huge plus about these is the straight cut with the high waist slims my hips down but fits my waist. *chefs kiss. High waist on me is like normal waist on most others. But these look AWESOME. The fabric is sturdy and the color looks patina’d so it’s instantly looks cool. These look even cooler when you cuff them. Almost like boyfriend jeans but with a proper fit on the hips. Tight and loose in all the right places. ;)

Best non-stretch denim (sizing is tricky though)

5 years ago
I love these jeans. I bought the indigo shade and they're such a nice vintage-looking wash. It is so hard to find affordable, 100% cotton denim with a button fly that is not distressed, but these hit the mark for me. The sizing is pretty tricky though. I sized down because I knew the would stretch out. I could BARELY get them to button at first, but once I got them done up I took a shower in them and did some squats before letting them air dry. The fit perfectly now and are my go-to pants for pretty much any occasion. My only complaint is that I wish they came in more washes! I'm DYING for a non-distressed, 100% cotton washed black version!!!!
