These are not the 501 shrink to fit. They are preshrunk. Otherwise they are just like the shrink to fit, button fly, same fabric, same look. My husband wouldn’t wear anything else. Long lasting, sturdy fabric, great product.

I bought this pair of one wash dark blue a few weeks ago It says Levi’s Premium 501. Off course, it is not the same as LVC series of classic and legendary 501 which will cost us around $300.But, this pair is not bad at all. It is very close to our old day classic 501. Not too wide and not too skinny. It is a simple straight jeans. Off course, the quality wise, it is not as strong and durable as one of those old 501’s that we all know… Length and width got shrunk a tiny bit after wash and dry. I would say 1/2 inch ish. But, Waist size remained the same. Like I said, this pair is not bad at all, if you still want to wear the classic old school 501 with below $100.

Ordered 3 pairs in 30x34 of the "Onewash Dark Wash - Non Stretch" in separate orders as each one gave off a terrible chemical smell, and was forced to return each. The first pair was washed before wearing. The smell was very apparent after warming up the fabric. i.e. after removing from the drier or after wearing them. Cupping your hands and blowing to warm the fabric works too. I returned the last 2 to the SF flagship store and they had never heard of this before. The ones in the store did not smell at all. I ordered the first pair from the same store as they don't generally carry the 30x34 size. I asked the store to investigate further.

Absolutely not true and I added a manual note on the slip. Very suspicious. Bad dye lot? Only with this particular wash and/or size? I can't be the only one.And now, incredibly, I see the size I returned is available at my local store, and they never carry this size. They are selling the defective pairs I returned!If you are considering these jeans be sure to smell them before you remove all the labels.

Can't beat the classic cut of 501s. They are very flattering and conformable. Only criticism is that the finishing on them wasn't the cleanest. There were a few stitchings where I had to cut off uncut ends of string. Other than that, great pair of jeans for the price.
Love the fit. But the denim quality is low. Within 3 to six months of daily use, all of them are worn through…Each of them was rarely washed and when they were washed it was inside out with liquid laundry detergent on low temp.Attached is a picture of the less worn one. The other one has a similar wear and tear the is about an inch longer lower on the inner thigh.Both of them were picked up at an official store on the 1st of September 2022. As of writing this review, it just passed midnight and the date would be the 15th of March 2023.Levis, please fix this. I have turned to the competition for now and or second hand vintage 501 pairs. I am open to returning if the quality improves.My first pair wore out from purchase on the 25th of May 2022 and returned ... MoreLove the fit. But the denim quality is low.

I am open to returning if the quality improves.My first pair wore out from purchase on the 25th of May 2022 and returned to the store with a denim fabric tear on the 1st of Semptember 2022 (fabric torn, not a seam).I would recommend to a friend if the denim quality improves. Sadly now I could not recomment.
Bought these jeans for my husband and they are a fab fit for him. Excellent material and the size was perfect. Just used size from old jeans (different label) but fitted absolutely brilliant. He says they are very comfortable and soft. Wash well and no shrinkage. Highly recommend.
These are the go-to choice for my partner where jeans are concerned. I wanted to buy him a pair for one of his Christmas presents, but the size was not on show in the Black Friday sale in November. However, I had the idea of going to the sales till and asked if I would be able to order a pair at the same price, to be collected in store (Kingston). No problem, and I was able to collect them a few days later when next in Kingston. A happy bunny on Christmas morning! Thank you for your efficiency and the continuing good customer service shown by all your staff.
Pros:The colour and material used for these jeans are nice in my opinion.Cons:Found it difficult to determine what size to order online as described as 34(S), 34(R) and 34(L) rather than the leg length as shown on actual jeans. (I wanted 34/30, but wasn't clear which to order).Jeans were quite tight around thigh, although stretching a little with use.The seem on the outside seems off-centre for some reason, although not a great issue.I find the fly-buttons quite difficult to do up. Would have preferred a zip option wiht this same classic style/colour, but wasn't sure which style to order.
I bought these in May and when received I thought they didn't feel right. These are not the same material that I've received from Levi's in the past. The button holes don't match well at all. Perhaps outsourced to a 3rd party to produced that used different material and definitely not the Levi's I've purchased in the past.
I placed an order from the official website, to another state, on another continent. I paid the money and waited three weeks. In the end, I received my order: they made the wrong model, sent the wrong size, and the jeans themselves were of terrible quality! Now, instead of enjoying wearing my jeans, I have to go through the standard return procedures, or throw these jeans in the trash where they belong.
