Levi'sMen's 501 Original Fit Jeans

My first ever pair of 501's, always wore Wrangler as a youngster but now aged 55 I decided to try out some new jeans. Well the High Street outlets were awful with nobody stocking the type of fit and style that I loved in the 80's, all the jeans I tried on were slim fit and/or tapered leg, ok I am not a slim chap but some of them I could barely get my feet through never mind past my knees !Every shop I went into stocked the same style and fit of jeans, they all seemed to be very thin material too with a horrible leg fit not suitable for a man of my age.My son told me to try Amazon for a pair of 501's and bingo he was right. The style, the shape, the quality of material (very thick, unlike the high street brands I tried) and the size (waist 42 leg 32 - believe it or not I am not fat merely tall at 6ft 2inch) was perfect. These are genuine items,amazing quality and a very good mid/late 80,s style, not too loose not too slim fit, you know what I mean if you lived through those times.I have recently been watching some DVD's of both The Smiths, Tears For Fears and Simple Minds and their jeans must have been 501's , well that is what mine are like, stone washed, really thick material with button fly - sure, not the easiest of ways especially if in a rush to go to the loo but they will ease off in time.These are genuine Levi 501 jeans, bought directly from Amazon, not third party sellers ( please note these may also be genuine items but from looking at the various photos posted up of the "leather" rear patch, there is one big difference that shows them to be fakes). So buy in confidence from Amazon and wear a piece of history.

Buying jeans online was a worry but I have to say that these were perfect and as jeans go really comfy. The quantity was there too

When I ordered these jeans they were described as containing 95% cotton and 5% other materials (polyester and elastane). With that in mind I purposely bought a size smaller waist fitting (33 inch rather than 34 inch). The product was also described as being made in Turkey. The actual item was Polish made with 100% cotton! So technically it was not what I ordered. Fortunately, the jeans fitted well (the slightly smaller waist size reduced the baggy backside which is a feature of Levi 501s it seems) and so I am very pleased. But it might have turned out very differently!

Surprisingly good quality. Having read other reviews here, I expected stretchy material but can't actually make out a difference with what they sell on high street for almost twice the price. Likewise no difference with previous 501s from the last 40 years.

O bought these as a Christmas gift for my husband as he has had them in the past and loves them. They were not a disappointment, they were exactly as expected and as I wanted him to check them for size before wrapping, he is very happy with them. Perfect fit…true to size and fantastic cut and quality as always

Always buy same size in Levi , however these were very undersized on the waist sold as 32 w more like 30w so watch out

Good fit & quality

There is no way these are genuine Levi JeansI gave them the benefit of the doubt from day one despite reservations due to how thin they areCoupled with this the fly buttons are far too large and continually come undoneNow after just 6 months the pockets are fraying around the seamsCome on Amazon! I have a pair of 501 s that are 20 years old that are in better shape than these will be in another 4 monthsMoney Back please and a bit more checks on goods authenticity please
