My Levi's corduroys are great quality and are sized and fit as promised. For me, the fit is the deal breaker. And, I love consistency of Levi's sizing by measurements (i.e., 28" x 30"). I've bought cords from other brands but their vague sizing (i.e., M or S) results in unpredictable fittings. For me, the 'super low' cut hits squarely at the hip (i.e., not the waist) - exactly what I want. I've bought 3 pairs in different colors. And, hoping they expand / re-stock some of the colors.
