Definitely skinny - 5’6�, 130lb, 28� waist, toned legs, small butt. Normally wear 29x30 or 30x30 low rise boot cuts /w a belt. Decided to try out skinnies for a nightlife outfit. Got a 30x30, fits like a glove, a little tight in the crotch, but excellent fit otherwise. I like the wash, but I'm not picky as long as it looks like a pair of jeans. 100% cotton, but still surprisingly flexible. I dance and although I don't think these could handle a full split, depending on how tight they're on you, they can definitely handle a half split and typical social/club dancing. Also comfortable enough to sit in for long periods of time. I think there's a 511 w/ spandex, but I don't think it's offered via Zappos atm. Taking my pair out for a run tonight and assuming they pass, I'll be looking to get a pair of the spandex version.

Color: Clean Dark. Great pair of pants. Very comfortable, and they fit perfectly. Not a skin tight pair of jeans (which is what I prefer), but still retains the feel of skinny jeans. It was hard to find a pair of black skinny jeans on Zappos that didn't use white string cotton for the outline of the back pockets. White string on back pocket and black jeans just looks too weird. These pair of jeans were as close as it gets to a dark back pocket outline, but it didn't bother me much. If you're looking for black skinny jeans, you can't go wrong with this one. The price and style makes your decision a no brainer.

Great every day Jeans. I got mine in Hiro which has more fade than the picture reveals, but still very fashionable. I do find that they really lose their fit after a few wears and need to be washed to retain it. Bought 2 pairs of the 511 and a Super Skinny.

I love Levi's 511 jeans! They fit perfectly, snug in the legs (but not ultra-tight like the 510) and hugs your back and front. The waist fits about 1.5-inches below the belly button on me and I'm 5'9" and a guy, which is just right and not too low that your crack starts showing. I bought the Dark Plum colored 511s and they're a deep, dark purple so now I have some colors other than blue. Even though I normally wear a 34 in the waist, for the 511 I go up to the next size 36 so that they don't feel too snug on me. These are the best cut Levi's around!

These jeans are not too skinny or too baggy. There is no flair at the ankles of these jeans like others I have purchased.

I bought these for my son and he loves them! We have an extremely hard time finding pants that fit because he is 5'6" and 92 lbs. Very skinny. There are literally no other pants that fit him. These are the only ones that look like he's not "sagging" and actually have the right length.

I am a girl who has problems with the fit of most women's pants. I wanted some skinnier pants that were not completely tapered to the ankle and yet wide and low at the hip and waist. I wanted a reliable fit live Levi's 501, but without the bulkier fabric in the hip and leg. Since trying them over a year ago, I have purchased this style pants in 5 colors and 2 sizes. They are all my favorite jeans. I wear the larger ones when I want a more relaxed, "boyfriend" look and the smaller ones when I want pants that are tighter, but not restricting. They are all quite flattering. All of the washes I've tried (Sky, Faded black, Chain link, Cacao, Clean Wash) have held up well. I never put the spandex blends in the dryer because I hate how it kills the stretch in other clothes I've had. I am considering these pants in 2 other washes.

Zappos.com is a great company; I really enjoy shopping there for their many perks. Big assortment of merchandise, some of which is hard to find at a regular stores. They have great prices, it's easy & convenient to order, fast & free shipping, very friendly & helpful staff, & another big perk with shopping at Zappos.com is that if they happen not to have the color or size of the item your looking for, they will send you an e-mail & notify you as soon as it becomes available. All my friends & family shop here, too. I feel like a kid at a candy store shopping here at Zappos.com.

The chain link fits looser than black. I am 5'6" and 135 pounds with well built legs and butt from cycling 140 miles per week. The size 29/30 fit perfectly without a belt. The size 30/30 fit looser. Overall, it's not just in waist and I needed a belt. The stretch fabric is ideal for action, dancing, biking, etc. These are a great fit.

Well worth what little you would pay for a joy like these jeans. I have mine on now and they really fit and feel good, and the stretch material really makes them a form fit. I would like more in different colors.

You feet feel like they are wrapped in silk. I have a few pairs of moccasins but these are the most comfortable ones yet. You can't imagine how great they feel. It is like your feet are wrapped in silk. They should all be lined like these are. I just hope they make more in different colors and styles real soon.

Very comfortable, but the deerskin soles are a problem. I love these moccasins, and enjoyed them for only 2 months before they bit the dust due to me inadvertently stepping in a puddle created by my potty training nephew. Nothing I could do but throw them out, as it absorbed right into the deerskin soles of the moccasins. Next time, I am ordering a pair with a rubber sole!

Feel like walking on a cloud! The deerskin lining is the key. I wear these moccasins daily around the house and every time I slip my feet into them I can't help but go ahhhhhhhhh... It is absolutely the best feeling in the world. I have had mine for two years and I think they are holding up nicely. Hint: don't walk on a wet surface.

so comfortable! Fabulous! I normally take a 5 1/2, but got these in 6, and they fit perfectly. I just tightened them up around the ankle with the leather drawstring, they are perfect through the ball of the foot and toes. I swear they are more comfortable everyday. Not good for outdoor wearthough, especially on concrete or asphalt. They're too soft, but perfect for indoors, or for dry grass or dry wood deck. I want to get a similar pair with a hard sole to wear in any condition, but it is hard to find the right combination of features in my size. Minnetonkas are the best, and well worth the money!

My favorite slippers ever. These slippers feel like a second skin. They start off very snug, but that's as it should be, for the deerskin stretches and conforms to your feet after several days of wear. I find that wearing these is actually more comfortable than going barefoot. I especially love the true mocassin construction, which means there is no stitching around the sole of the shoe that could get worn out. My pair has been worn indoors on hardwood, marble, and tile floors (no carpeting at all) every day for one year, and they are going strong. These last and last. I love them.

Absolutely wonderful slipper. Felt like putting on my old pair of comfy ones. As a first time user of Zappo's I was very impressed at your service. Couldn't believe they where here the next day! Just ordered another pair of shoes. Thanks

My second pair - Bought my first pair of these slippers 5-7 years ago. They lasted all this time and would have lasted longer if I'd never gotten the bottoms wet by stepping out for the newspaper, etc. They form to your foot quickly and are so comfortable. No question of buying a differnet slipper..just try not to get the bottoms wet and they'll last even longer. They feel tight at first but stretch to your foot in a matter of days.

Comfy Cosy - The comfort level is good but I had to add an insole to make these moccasins fit. On the positive side I can wear them with socks, which is great in the winter. These are strictly for indoor use.
