You will feel the weight and the quality right away. The extra dollars are worth it here. I’ll be on the wait list for a darker version too.

1954 was an interesting year for the 501. This iteration is made with a narrower leg opening than most 501's in history. Fits more similarly to the modern 502 but with a high waisted fit. The big twist though, this is the only year that Levi's ever produced a 501 with zipper fly. If your going for the classic construction and denim feel from the 50's, but the modern fit and features like a zipper, this vintage piece is a must have. Throw them on with a pair of nice boots and give them a cuff to show off that thin redline selvedge; maybe a tucked in white t-shirt and you are the perfect blend of modern look, but classic appeal. Want to take it a step further? Toss on a nice black leather jacket and live life like Marlon Brando. Definitely one of my favorites from the LVC collection!

Mon mari est tout heureux d’avoir un véritable levis

Sehr gute Qualität. Werde mit der Hose sehr viel Freude haben.

The best i love is an eclectic synergy of classical 501 and breaking pocket's and stitch's treatment. The best 501 i've ever had!

Nice jeans. I have had about a week. A little softer and more comfortable than I expected for raw denim. I used the bathtub soak/wear til dry method. I usually wear a W33 L30. I ordered a W34 L34. After first shrinkage the jeans fit great in the waist. A little baggier in the butt and calf areas than I expected for a tapered fit jeans but not overly so. The length shrunk just enough for me to still cuff if I want or wear stacked without cuff, so I think the length is great. Overall I am satisfied with the jeans, I have worn them everyday since I received them and they are softening up nicely and are very comfortable
