I love these jeans! No more Mavi, Buffalo, or any other overpriced jeans. Thank you Levis and Zappos!

My husband is a die hard fan of Levi's 501 and no matter what I say or suggest he will always want a pair, for rainy days :) We ordered Dark Stonewash and received Medium Stonewash, and hated thw color right out of the box. But when he tried them on, those Medium Stonewash didn't look too bad on him so we decided to keep them. For those Zappos employees out there reading reviews -- please be careful when sending out jeans with similar color names. All in all, great classic jeans we've grown to love over the past 30 years :)

First of all wanted to say how awesome Zappos customer service is. First time using them and very impressed. I ordered a 32 x 34 fit really snug. A little too snug for my taste. Didn't know how much they would break in or how much they would shrink when I would wash them. So I had an exchange for a 34 x 34 and it was too loose. Finally had it exchanged for a 33 x 34 and it was perfect. Super comfy, not too snug and easy to put on, fit and wear. If they do shrink with a wash I would still be fine. For reference I'm 6'2" and 165 lbs. Slim build.

Excellent jeans. Fit is perfect (I've had a pair or two of 501s that were a bit too baggy). Also these have 7 belt loops instead of 5, so your belt doesn't ride up over the back of your hips like some. These have the stretch fabric, which I was a bit worried would come across like chuck Norris action jeans, but overall you don't notice any difference. Just a bit more comfy when your other 501s might bind up when you are reenacting West Side Story dance fights or Mods vs Rockers seaside brawls. These pants have been there before and captured the lessons learned!

Levi's 501 are the only jeans I wear. I love the fit and the button fly. The Lincoln Park "color" is really great if you are looking for a lived in style with a few holes and all. They are very soft. I really like the look, but in the end it just wasn't right for me.

As usual, 501's are a great fit and always classic. Zappos really should change the pictures they have for these because in reality they fit much better than shown in the pictures. Size is spot on as well as the Levi's quality. Delivered on time just as they said they would. I love the look and feel of 501s and they only get better with age. For a better wear I always hang them to dry right from the washing machine

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
I've been wearing Levis 501s for years and the cut works well for my body shape. I always choose a stone washed or black because they are 100% cotton and have a classic look. Some of the 501s & 505s have spandex in them and a completely different feel to the fabric. The black 501s are very flattering but I have to wash them very gently so they don't lose their nice crisp black. I do have to say the 501 black jeans seem to be cut smaller than the 501 stonewashed blue. Also the fabric is different than the stone washed blues. It is lighter weight and has a polished texture but I don't have a problem with this. To me they look a little "dressier".

Just what I ordered at a lower price than I could buy locally. Levi's original line holds up better than the cheaper Levi Signature line found in discount stores.

Perfect, super comfortable, not baggy, not slim. Fit is true to size. I like how it doesn't have a low cut. My only complaint is the button fly--it works fine, I just prefer a zipper. The light stonewash is perfect for that normcore, dad-bod style that I needed in my life.

Very cool jeans. But run small especially in the quads. Go one size bigger or grab 505's if you have bigger legs.

The Levi's 501 needs no introduction, unchanged for as long as I've been alive. I'm here for the 100 reward points.

These are the gold standard, the everyday, walkabout, go-to-work-or-go-to-dinner, wear-right jeans. They fit right, look right, and pretty much do the right thing in any situation. Buy these if you want fulfillment in life.

Initially tried on and seemed to run large; however after washing and drying they drew up quite a bit. Great price for jeans.

I love the jeans but it's amazing how the inch has gotten longer (only in the waist) over the years. I remember when a 30" waist actually measured 30".

I have been buying these same jeans for years. I love them and they are always cheaper here than any of the stores around here, even when the local stores are having sales.
