About this Style

Close your eyes. Think “jeans.” Now open. They were 501® Originals, right? With a classic straight leg and iconic styling, they’re literally the blueprint for every pair of modern jeans in existence—burned into the world’s collective cortex ever since Levi Strauss (the man himself!) introduced them in 1873. To this day they’ve never gone out of style. And they never will.


  • The original blue jeans
  • Our signature straight fit with the iconic button fly
  • A blank canvas for customization and self-expression
  • These jeans are Shrink-to-Fit™, meaning you control the shrinkage yourself, which allows the denim to conform to your unique body. The payoff is a pair of jeans with a custom-made fit. No tailor necessary.
  • To find the right size for Shrink-to-Fit™ jeans, there are three options. 1) For the old-school technique, buy true to size in the waist and two sizes up in length. Wear them in the tub and keep them on to dry. 2) For those who want to machine wash and dry the jeans, we recommend ordering up: For your waist, increase 1" for sizes 27"-36", 2" for 38"-48", and 3" for 50" and up. And for your inseam, increase 3" for sizes 27"-34" and 4" for 36" and up. 3) For purists who like their denim unwashed, no need to size up. Buy them true to size.

501 Shrink to Fit

2 days ago
It’s been years since I have worn 501 shrink to fit. I wear 33x32 and purchased 34x34 and after two wash and dry cycles they fit perfect. I will probably start hanging to dry to prevent additional shrinking. I love the true indigo color. Will be purchasing more.

Legends never die tried and true jeans.

Levis 501 Shrink To Fit. I personally believe is a staple and legend in jeans. This is all my Grandpa wore for over 60 years until his last days on earth. I had a good mentor and teacher and I’m grateful that I’m continuing in his foot steps wearing 501’s. They go great with my cowboy boots and the sharp creases that I have on them.

Yes, I recommend this product.

501 shrink to fit

14 days ago
follow the advise on this. buy 1 inch larger than the waist, 3 inches from the length. it will shrink gradually to fit you, after a few washes. wash cold inside out to minimize fading if you like to maintain the true denim color.
