About this Style

Our 501® jeans from 1933 featured updates, like belt loops, and traditional details, like the classic cinch and suspender buttons. Levi's® wearers at the time would cut off the cinch right at the rivet and removed the suspender buttons, choosing not to wear their Levi’s® jeans with suspenders, like the older generation. Some Levi’s® brand retailers even kept a big pair of scissors at the cash desk to cut the cinch off for their customers.

Our 1933 501® jeans also featured the redesigned “Guarantee Ticket” on the back pocket of the jeans. Levi Strauss & Co. had trademarked the name “Levi’s®” in 1927 because any pair of denim pants were being called “Levi’s®” no matter who made them. Instead of reading, “This is a pair of them”, as seen on the original ticket from 1892, the new ticket read “This Is A Pair Of Levi’s®”. Also under the leather patch was a small white cloth label printed with the blue eagle and the letters “NRA”. This was the National Recovery Act logo, which LS&Co. was allowed to use because the company abided by the labor rules of President Franklin Roosevelt’s National Recovery Administration during the Depression years of the 1930s.

high waisted jeans are rare

a year ago

high waisted jeans are really difficult to come by so it's really nice to have these historical recreations. I love the cinch back. I actually use it since I sized up two sizes because I plan on washing these (experience has taught me to not underestimate how much shrink-to-fits shrink. you can wear jeans that are slightly too large but jeans that are tightly too small are a pain to stretch out again). it would be cool if these jeans were available with other kinds of denim; heavier denim, recycled denim, stretch denim, maybe a different colored selvedge line, I don't know, something fun, but in the 1933 cut with the cinch back and suspender buttons.

Last Chance for Suspender Buttons

2 years ago

I recently started wearing suspenders and wanted some Levi's with suspender buttons. I could simply take a pair of regular 501 STF and add my own buttons, which I would certainly do if Levi's offered their official suspender button kit on a permanent basis (Hint!). However, these 1933 models also have a cinch, crotch rivet and other historical details that make them more interesting. The 10 oz white line selvage denim is a little neppy and I suspect will be a good weight for summer wear. The fit is a little looser than the current 501 STF model. I went with my normal Levi's waist size. I am wearing them rigid for now, but will do a tub soak when summer sets in. These are my favorite jeans, and I hope Levi's continues to offer these and other years even if the LVC line is done.

Unos 501 con muchos detalles.

a year ago

Son unos 501 muy bonitos y con muchos detalles, como los botones para tirantes, etiquetas y remaches. A mí me gustan más los modelos más ajustados, como el 511, pero cuando quiero ponerme unos más anchos estos son perfectos.

fake items from Levi's opnline store.

6 months ago

Beware, Levi's are scammers. I have ordered this item in Sweden from Levi's web-shop and received it a week ago. Instead of shipping an authentic "Make in Japan" 501, Levi's shipped me a 555 Z model with all the paper labels for "Made in Japan" 501 attached to it - apart from the actual label on the jeans, that says 555 Z. After I have reported it to Levi's customer service, their only reply was that "I have not bought it from an authentic store and have no claim" despite providing them with everything from original order to detailed photos. This is their last reply: JoseG. (Levi's) 14 Oct 2025, 10:31 CEST Hi, After checking, we were unable to locate any order associated with the PC9 number provided (175990011). Please note that all items sold through our official Levi’s® website are 100% authentic Additionally, we would like to clarify that Levi’s® jeans may display multiple origin references due to our global production process. For instance, the denim fabric may be sourced from Japan, known for its exceptional quality, while the manufacturing or assembly could take place in another country such as Pakistan. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We look forward to your reply. Kind regards, JoseG. Levi’s® Consumer Relations Department Europe Absolute filth of a company. I admit, I bought Levi's before, I bought expensive limited edition jeans and jackets, but never again.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Mythique!

a year ago

Le modèle pour lequel mon avis de consommateur est solicité par un email de Levi's reçu le 2 février 2025 aurait pu être de 5 étoiles et très favorable pour le produit en question si seulement Levi's avait pu satisfaire ma commande en-ligne passée à 2 reprises (le 20 janvier dernier et puis le 26 janvier dernier), toutes deux occasionnant une annulation pour faute de stock sur ce produit. Visiblement les informations sur leur stock ont subit des erreurs de mise à jour à 2 reprises pour ce même produit, ce qui m'a laissé ahurit et très consterné, m'obligeant aussi a passé beaucoup de temps en explications auprès de leur service consommateur basé en Espagne, aussi à deux reprises. Non seulement je ne comprend pas pourquoi je reçois ce mail indiquant que visiblement j'ai acheté ce produit mais qui plus est, ce n'est pas la première fois que le système Levi's me fait ce coup là puisque au lendemain (le 21 janvier) de ma première tentative d'achat, je recevais un mail me disant que ce produit était toujours dans mon panier et qu'il m'irait beaucoup mieux sur moi! Le produit en question n'était déjà plus dispo selon le système. Une vrai déception et un terrible micmac dans la gestion informatique du stock car le modèle disparaissait finalement du site après le 21 janvier pour réapparaitre de nouveau (à ma grande surprise) le 26 janvier avec soit disant 5 paires de dispo! Je n'en croyais pas ma chance...malheureusement je suis encore tombé de haut avec mon désir de posséder ce modèle de 501. Alors je continue de guetter une prochaine opportunité.
