Great jeans. I like jeans with no stretch. The fit is better and these look great. They are not as short on me since I'm 5'4" but the 27 length is good even 1/2 each would be perfect.

Obsessed!

a month ago
Out of the many jeans I have, these are hands down my favorite. They fit my 5'1/103# frame perfectly. I went with the 24/27 based on the cropped Original 501s I already own, and the sizing worked out great. The denim is so soft, light, and comfortable that they feel like lounge wear. They hit just below my ankle on me, but the proportions still look right on my petite frame.

Great fit and style

My new favorite jean and fit is the 90s 501. I tried a pair of jeans last year and I didn’t expect them to look so good. So I just had to try the ankle jean. They didn’t disappoint! I look forward to adding more colors to my wardrobe.

I've been looking for some alternative jeans that sell shorter sizes (no longer buying from American Eagle). While Levi's doesn't consistently have a ton of shorter jean sizes, these are my new favorite jeans!

Perfect Style

a month ago
These jeans are exactly what I've been looking for. They fit true to size in my opinion, I always buy 25 and the 25 fit just right. I found this pair a little smaller than the lightweight fabric 90's ankle pair. The rise is good, finally not a high rise and the ankle length is perfect on my shorter frame. Please never stop making these. The 100% cotton feels so much better to me than stretch jeans, and I have not had a pair of Levi's for a long time now but I think these are going to become my go to as I can't stand tight clingy jeans.

These are the perfect mid rise jeans. The ankle length looks so great with ballet flats and sandals. Find this rise more flattering than the Ribcage jeans.

the perfect loose jean for petite girls

a month ago
wanted a change from my normal 501s since the style nowadays is a wider leg. however as a 5’2” girl i feel like most jeans nowadays are super wide at the bottom and that is not the most flattering on me. these jeans are the perfect amount of room throughout the legs and are the perfect amount of baggy. and of course as a 5’2” girl the ankle length fits perfectly as a full length jean on me. love these jeans down. true to size.

Schnelle Lieferung. bin mit der Jeans sehr zufrieden. Sie ist etwas lockerer geschnitten und am Beinausschnitt auch weiter als die normale 501 crop. Finde ich in der wärmeren Jahreszeit sehr angenehm, da das Ganze dadurch viel luftiger ist.

Tighter fit than other washes

I’ve gotten a lot of washes in the 90’s ankle jeans and these ran a little small. They may have stretched out but I decided to exchange for one size up (my usual size of 25). Exchange process was great!

Love the Sweetest Taboo wash and the ankle length is great (I’m 5’5”). I sized down for a more fitted look (they stretch out a bit), and also got my regular size for baggy and in case they shrink. I’m about 118lbs and ordwred both a 24 and a 25. Great jeans!
