Looking for jeans for my super tall husband, I decided to go old school. And these 501s did not disappoint. The quality, style and fit are so nice for him. Would recommend.

Classic and extremely comfortable fit. I love the button-fly closure and all cotton construction. You cannot ever miss with Levis Jeans! Highly recommend!

If you are used to wearing shrink-to-fits and they fit just right after shrinkage, note that these will likely be a couple inches too long on you. Consider a shorter inseam vs. shrink-to-fit.

Perfect fit and look great. These are a classic for a reason. The button holes for the button fly were a little tight at first, but should be fine with time.

Original nothing. Not 100% cotton, and the originals weren’t this low waist nonsense. Why did I even try…

I purchased a pair of Levi's 501 jeans last year, and unfortunately, they've been a huge disappointment. Despite wearing them irregularly, they developed holes and wore out in less than 9 months. For the price point, I expected much better quality. The fabric did not hold up, and the durability was far below my expectations.
This has been the worst experience I’ve ever had with jeans. Considering the brand’s reputation and premium cost, the quality is simply unacceptable. I can't recommend these jeans to anyone looking for durability.

The cut on these is terrible. The width near the foot is just as wide as the width in the thigh. What is even worse is no zipper but button up. No man came up with that concept.

This was not the original 501. These have stretch and not what I am looking for.

My husband did not like them because the fly was buttons rather than a zipper. I did not realize this when I ordered them. The quality of the jeans, however, was very good.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Dreadful experience! I have worn these jeans for years, and last time I went to order, they were out of stock. Zappos was kind enough to notify me (months later) when my size was allegedly in stock. I immediately ordered, and the jeans arrived early! That's when the trouble began. The outer package had a label that said "WRONG" (handwritten), and my size was handwritten on it. The actual package contained jeans marked by the manufacturer as a much larger size. Tried 'em on, and the manufacturer label proved correct. Meanwhile, Zappos site says it is *out of* my size. I have to trudge to UPS to send them back. Sure leaves me with a sour taste in the mouth.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Jeans are ok enough. Then the back pocket has a lot of stickers between stitches and showing dirty paper including jeans lot number so I had to take all tapes was adhered at inside of the back pocket maybe it's manufacturer issue for old stock but still bad experience. Zappos usually ships fast and let me experience great Cs but this product was really disappointed

I've been wearing Levi 501 Originals for 60 years (I'm 75)...that should be endorsement enough.
