About this Style

The perfect fit for muscular builds. Our 541™ Athletic Taper gives you more room in the thigh and seat for comfort and mobility, but starts to taper at the knee down to the ankle for a sharp, streamlined aesthetic. The end result? A contemporary look with a relaxed feel and a slightly tailored finish.

A contemporary look with a relaxed feel
Cut with extra room in the seat and thigh
A slightly tailored finish
Designed especially for athletic builds
These jeans were made with Levi's® Ease, a blend of midweight denim and just the right amount of stretch. Plus, they're designed to look and feel better over time—just like your favorite vintage Levi’s®.

Favorite Jeans

2 months ago

Years ago, I bought these jeans for my son and husband because they were on sale. These are their favorites! Just bought again and the fit is the same. There is some stretch in them. I do size down in these and that seems to be perfect. Very comfortable!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Love these jeans

2 months ago

I would normally purchase the 541 athletic taper jeans for comfort, however, after dropping some weight, an in store associate suggested the 514's. I use 514's for work and the 541's for days off. Levis jeans are the best!

541 Jeans for Bigger Guys

2 months ago

I knew from experience the 541 fits me, as I'm a bit on the heavy side. But these are not loose fit or baggy jeans. These jeans have some stretch to them.

My grandson is 6’4”, slim with an athletic build. Well developed thighs and glutes. Jeans never fitted him. But I discovered the 541s and the 505s! Magic! He is delighted. Thank you!

best jeans for me

3 months ago

given my body type, having lost 100lbs the last few years, jeans were hard to fit me. i went through several pairs of jeans from different brands, and even from levis, i finally found the 541s best fit me. great fit, great feel, great movement are my criterias for jeans. the 541s fulfilled all three
