About this Style

Think of this modern slim as not-so-skinny skinny jeans. (If you want the style, but not the feeling, this is a great alternative.) With a streamlined fit that’s narrow through the seat and thigh, our 511™ Slim is perfectly calibrated to look good with everything—without looking like you’re trying too hard.


  • The definitive slim jeans
  • Narrow through the seat and thigh, but still roomy
  • Designed to fit like they’ve been tailored just for you
  • Finished with our iconic arcuate stitching
  • These jeans were crafted from premium stretch selvedge denim and woven on a traditional narrow-width shuttle loom—making them highly covetable. Roll up the cuff to show off the woven fabric strip.
  • We made this garment with TENCEL™ Lyocell, a soft fiber sourced from wood. TENCEL™ is a trademark of Lenzing AG.

Great fit but concerned about color

a year ago
Good fit and well made. My only complaint is the color. I ordered another pair of a different type and it is much darker than this pair. Having had black jeans in the past that faded to gray I am concerned this pair will look less black more quickly.

Nice if you can get them on sale.

a year ago
Nice jean and yes they are selvedge denim but not in the same class as true raw denim from some of the smaller companies. Great if you can get them on sale but if you are going to spend $128.00 for selvedge denim, add another $50.00 and get elevate your game.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I really like the way these fit and they are no doubt comfortable but, the fabric weight just isn't there. 4 way stretch. I just don't see these having any real cool fading aspects but, we shall see.

Upgrade on normal 511s, ready-to-wear

a year ago
Unlike many more boutique selvedge brands, these jeans are ready to wear out of the box, made with a bit of stretch and feel comfortable and broken-in from day one. Could really have done without the fading and whiskering, but it seems like it's getting harder and harder to find jeans that don't have some degree of that. Good quality, no issues in that department. A no-stretch no-whisker dark indigo version of these would get 5 stars from me and be worth every penny.

Jean 511 Slim, Dark wash Indigo

2 years ago
Le jean Levi's 511 Slim est impeccable, sa taille ainsi que sa longueur sont corrects, le denium est de très bonne qualité. Je suis satisfait de cet achat. J'aurais aimé que les teinte et texture soient plus proches d'un dark wash indigo, comme on en trouve sur les gammes 501 et 512 (Tapered).

Good jeans but a little tight in the front thigh area

They are outstanding jeans but a little tight in the front thigh area and pelvic area. I would recommend these jeans but when they are on sale if I’m being honest.

Im a pretty big guy and these jeans fit great. I didn’t expect them to fit as slim as they did on me, but overall I enjoy the feel and stretchiness of being able to move around freely.

Attention to detail!

2 years ago
These feel super high quality compared to the jeans you find in a retail store. While the Levi's at a kohls feel almost paper thin in some cases, these feel sturdier with more attention to the stitching. I have scrawny little chicken legs so I would have preferred them to be slightly tighter in the legs. However,if these hold up, I will be purchasing the premium line from now on.

Not All There Selvedge, indeed

9 months ago
Preface by saying. Whatever other reviews say, I should have sized down to be honest. The sizing chart on this page for this particular pair is accurate; I wear a size 34 in most brands (including Levi's, usually) because my waist is basically exactly 36.5" around, and the size 36 jeans' waistband measures exactly 18.25" across, as listed. However, two factors: these aren't a particularly thick/heavy fabric weight unlike real 100% cotton selvedge denim, and they have the tencel/lycra stretch component to them. The thinness and the stretchiness mean that, while they do fit on my waist *just so* when brand new/freshly washed, after a few wears the waistband stretches out and they start falling down without a belt. This is fine, but for a slim jean it's not ideal. Ditto what other reviewers have said about the fit weirdness; these don't fit particularly slim down the leg, even compared to my other pairs of 511's, and the light weight/lack of rigidity to the fabric means that they don't hang cleanly like a well-cut pair of straight jeans either. I bought these during a sale, so I'm still pleased enough with what I got, but I don't think I would have been happy paying full price for a thin, awkward-fitting synthetic-blend pair of jeans being advertised as "selvedge" when that word comes with a connotation of having, I dunno, higher quality detailing.

Colour not as depicted

As you expect from Levis, the fit and quality are excellent. However, the colour is nothing like the rich black shown in the pictures on the website. The colour was more of a faded charcoal, so unfortunately I had to return them.

Great but stretchy!

2 years ago
Beautiful pair of jeans- like only Levi’s knows how! Selvedge and the “Big E” make them stand out; however, even with 1% elastane they are stretchy and for that reason I sized down an inch in the waist. Levi’s- please listen to us- we want, no crave, raw denim. Elastic, spandex, elastane doesn’t really belong in traditional selvedge jeans. Please start making product, slim fitting like the 511’s, in 100% cotton!

kleur

Wat mij tegenviel was de kleur. Op de foto's lijkt de kleur van de broek egaal blauw. Dus geen lichte vlekken of strepen. Helaas zijn die kleurverschillen er wel. Heel erg jammer. De foto's laten niet de echte kleur zien. Hopelijk gaat u daar in de toekomst beter op letten.

Doesn't feel like selvedge

The fabric is too thin and too stretchy. Otherwise the jeans seem fine. I wish Levi's would bring back a sensibly priced proper 100% cotton denim - the kind you'd wash in hot water and last for 10 years - for the purists among us.

Regret buying these

Color is quite different from the pictures. The whiskers (fades on thighs) are almost inexistent in reality, and colortune is more grayish than blueish. They also lose their shape after very little wear and become very loose. So I'm not happy with the quality either.

Paper Thin Denim - Don't Be Fooled

2 years ago
Don't be fooled by these being "selvedge." They are just as paper thin as all the other less expensive jeans. They do run small. I normally wear a 31/30 so I got a 31/30 and a 32/30 to be safe. Both fit nearly identically. They're really tight. They also aren't as slim as regular 511s. These are really tight in the waist but looser around the legs. They almost look like boot cut at the bottoms. They don't reflect what they look like in the photos. Levis quality control. is non-existent.
