About this Style

The year was 1947 and although the war had ended, the nation was much changed—and so were our 501® Jeans. The end of rations allowed for the return of some familiar 501® features, like the watch pocket rivets. But it also ushered in some updates in response to the changing time and emerging middle class, like a modern, slimmer fit and the removal of extraneous details like the cinch and suspender buttons. And while the back pocket Arcuate was no longer applied with paint as it was during the war, it had certainly changed. Thanks to new double-needle technology, the famed double-arched stitch could be mass-produced in uniform size and design, no longer subject to the sewing skills of the individual worker. Today, we reproduce all of these details for these 1947 501® Jeans using the same 12 oz. red line selvedge denim.

Very Nice Lighter Selvedge

19 days ago
Very nice. Slightly lighter weight (12oz). A little small in the waist. I'd tell you to size up 1 inch or so.

Happy with purchase of jeans, good denim quality. Sized up as recommended by others (+1 waist, +2 length), did hot wash, and sizing was perfect afterwards.

An all-time classic jean.

Managed to pick up a pair of rigid LVC 1947 501s, and couldn’t be more impressed with the fit and quality. Did an initial ~45 minute tub soak and the jeans shrunk as expected. I can only imagine these will get better with age and with another soak in a few weeks/months. I opted for 1 size up in the waist and 2 in length, and they turned out perfect for me.

Great jeans

a year ago
Been wearing these for about 4 months and really love the style and fit. I soaked mine in hot water before wearing for about an hour. They did shrink in the inseam about 2 inches. I sized up 1 inch in the waist (compared to what I wear in standard 501s) and they were quite snug for a month, so you might want to consider 2 sizes up if you are used to Levi’s more modern lines. These were really comfortable from the first wear. Other than fit, the style is so classic and cool—more on the slim side than some of the latter 501s.

Yes, I recommend this product.
