About this Style

Levi’s® Vintage Clothing reproduces the fits, fabrics and details of bygone eras. Our source material is our own archive, and our inspiration is the hardworking men and women that the Levi’s® Brand has equipped for the last 150 years. Through our seasonal collections, iconic reissues and special editions, we relive our treasured history and offer timeless products to discerning connoisseurs that are as obsessed with it as we are.


In 1934, we introduced the first five-pocket jean especially built for women: the 701®. Made famous by the premiere American fashion magazine of its time, the 701® had a distinctly high-waisted, more curved fit. Today, we reproduced these glossy magazine-approved 1950s Women's 701 Jeans stitch-for-stitch using premium selvedge denim.

Great staple

a year ago
Bought both black and blue. They're great, hidden rivet detail, talon zippers. Quality of the blue seem just a little nicer. Wish the black were the same weight of denim as the blue (they're lighter, softer). Selvedge on black not obvious due to overdye. I could have sized down (both) for a tighter fit but all levis seem to be running big these days.

I love my 701s, and I love the pink selvage. I already have a couple pairs, in dark and distressed/light finishes. I purchased two of these on sale, thinking I might crop one pair and leave the other long for rolling (I think the inseam is 34"). My previous 701s are size 29, so that's what I ordered, and these run big in comparison. I can still wear them, it's just that they feel a size bigger. The waist is about 1.5" larger and the rise is about 3/4" higher. I think I like how these fit a little baggier in the hip than my old 701s, so I'll be keeping them and may alter the waist. These are listed as preshrunk (maybe that's the issue with size), but I'll be curious how they wash up. If you're looking for a fitted look, you may want to size down. For reference, I'm 5'4", waist 29", hip 40".

Perfect jeans !

3 years ago
I saw a picture along the bottom of the page as I was scrolling through all of the jeans, and the girl in the picture was wearing the ultimate jeans in a field, those were the ONES! A little longer in length, perfect fit in the butt, loose in the right places and fitted in the right places. Made to look like the original Levi’s in the 1950’s, with a faded cream patch with faded red Levi’s label. These jeans are going to wear in perfectly after a lifetime of love, they aren’t distressed yet, but my goal is to wear them ten wears in a row and so far they’ve fit better each wear, and I can see how these will be my go to jeans for years to come. No more cheap jeans for me, Levi’s is where it’s at. I loved them the minute I put them on.

A unique and flattering fit

3 years ago
These jeans are hella expensive but I got them on sale in the light wash and I love them! They have a different fit from any other Levi's I've tried so far. They are on the light weight side which I love for non-stretch denim and are very flattering on the booty. Be warned that they will fit way too tight when you first put them on, like I could barely zip them, but they will stretch with time. Go a size up if you want a more relaxed fit (I am in between 27/28 and went down to 27). They have been worth the pain of breaking in.

EVERYONE needs a Pair!

I purchased a pair of 701 Levi’s after seeing them on someone on Pinterest. I searched until I found them (unbeknownst to the price). I decided to give them a try & spit fire, I’m so happy that I did. I purchased a size up & they hang just like I like! I also thought the denim was gonna be stiff… I was wrong. They’re actually nice to the touch. They are everything I expected & more! I encourage you to take a chance. What do you have to loose.

Very flattering and comfortable

4 years ago
Love these jeans. They're loose and comfortable while still being cute and flattering to my shape. I also like that they're the good durable denim and not the stretchy stuff that doesn't last like most of the newer ones are. I do wish there were shorter options for us petite ladies though since these ones don't really cuff well

Perfect Jeans

Got these when they went on sale in black and this color. They’re the best fit for ladies with a small waist and big butt. True be to size and no weird gap in the back like every other pair of jeans! Inseam is hella long for short girls. I’m 5’3” and have to cuff twice.

True Vintage Reproduction!

4 years ago
I love these jeans. They feel like a true 1950s reproduction, and the denim is so thick and rigid that they feel really durable and well-made. They are the perfect vintage stovepipe shape, and look amazing cuffed. I'm 5'7", 135 lb, with a 26.5" waist and although I originally purchased the size 27, I found it to be too saggy in the butt/legs area. The 26s were extremely tight out of the package but I sprayed them with water and wore them around the house which instantly made them more comfortable, and I know with more wear they will continue to fit to my body, so I would recommend sizing down. I love them!

Incredible. Perfect curvy fit.

I love these jeans! I also have them in the dark wash. My measurements are waist - 26in, hip- 40in, so it’s hard to find pants that fit off the rack. I got these in a size 27 and they actually fit perfectly with no alterations needed! Great quality and really comfortable. Love the selvedge detail too. Side note, the dark wash I had to get taken in at the waist - not sure if the measurements are different for the different washes or if the sizing is inconsistent. Either way I love them both and i highly recommend!

Great jeans

I bought both in black and dark denim. I usually wear a 25 and they fit perfect around the waist, and a little tight around thighs and hip(I'm a pear-shape). Hopefully it breaks in as I wear it. Overall, my favorite pairs of jeans from Levis and they make your legs look super long!!

Good fit for tall inseam

5 years ago
Out of the handful of styles I bought from Levi's (505s, etc) these fit the best for long legs and a high waist. My natural waist falls very high on my torso so often "highwaisted" jeans don't fit right, as was the case with the other models of Levis I tried. These come up very high and have a 34" inseam which is super great if you are 5'10' and above (I'm 5' 11" for reference). Very well made and sleek looking.

Great for small waist & big butt!

5 years ago
Finally took the plunge and bought these. I’m 5’2, 124lbs with 27” waist and 38” hips. I have a long torso for my height so I love high waisted jeans. These come with a 34” inseam. I hemmed them to 28 inches and also wear them cuffed above my ankles. The denim is rigid with zero stretch however they do relax with wear and mold to your body. I ordered these in a size 27. They are perfect for my body. My only regret is waiting so long to get them.

I’ve been wanting a pair of selvedge jeans for so long. The fit on these is perfect. I’m 5’8” and I wear a size 28 in the ribcage fit. The length goes down to my feet, but they look great cuffed. I can’t wait to break these in. The quality is awesome and they feel like they will last forever. Levi’s, please make more jeans of this quality for women!

Magnifique et coupe originale

6 years ago
Je suis ravie de mon achat. J'aime beaucoup la coupe, la qualité du jean et les finitions. Pour la taille, il est large au niveau des cuisses et des jambes comme sur la photo mais juste ce qu'il faut au niveau de la taille. En 501 cropped (avec 1% élasthanne), je prends du 26 et en 701 j'ai pris du 28. Donc oui il faut bien prendre 2 tailles au dessus voire plus si vous voulez un effet plus large. Il est aussi très long et j'ai dû faire 2 revers pour qu'il arrive aux chevilles (je mesure 1m62 et je pèse 55 kilos)

The. Best. Jeans.

7 years ago
I’ve had these jeans for nearly 2 years now and they are THAT GOOD that I’m back on the Levi’s website and writing a review. They Took a little time to break in since they are good quality denim, but they now fit my like a glove and are super soft and supple. I absolutely love these jeans, the fit is really flattering and I still get compliments. I have a big but and a small waist, so always have issues buying jeans As they tend to exhibit a baggy waistline, but these fit really well and mould to my curves. I wear mine rolled usually and they look great with boots or trainers. One of my best purchases ever.
