Their color is exactly the same as shown in the picture so their introduction is real and honest and this is not unusual in Zappos. This is my second time I shopped at Zappos and I have to admit that I am more than satisfied.

I bought these jeans for my boyfriend. Of all the Levi's styles, the button-fly's fit him best. They look great and he loves them!

Where have you been all my life? I have been such a loser buying expensive jeans and looking past Levis. When I used to think about Levis, I though of light blue, old man baggy jeans. Not so here! And these are the originals! These, when fit properly, look expensive and how jeans should look. The bootcut, faded, whiskered, pocket bling jeans are out now! Thank The Lord. These are a great, mature addition to a young professional's wardrobe. In the dark, no-frills color, of course.

Zappos came highly recommended from a friend and I wasn't disappointed. I found the whole buying experience effortless even though I was purchasing from abroad. Great service and delivery.

These jeans fit fine and seemed to be in good shape. I was pleased with the fit of my "big boy" pants after ripping the belt loop off the previous pair trying to tug them up.
That is impossible to sew!

They're Levi's 501. They're the best, what else can I say? If you wear them, then you already know, if you don't, then try em out and you'll soon know it too.

I bought a few pair of Levis 501s recently and the BLUE MIST are the only ones I am returning. To create the very faded look, Levis used a VERY THIN material (maybe 10.5 oz.- 11.5 oz. weight). While they look great and fit well, I just don't expect these jeans to last more than a year with day-to-day wear. Nice fashion or summer jeans, but not worth the money. You are better off getting a darker color (heavier material) and just wearing them until they fade to this level. Check out the SNAP POP color instead.
I'd also recommend:
None. If you wear 501s, nothing else will do...short of selvage denim.

Great pants. I love Levi's one of the best brand jeans there's only one minor problem which is the button fly instead of a zipper besides that they are great!

My waist is 39. I ordered 38 and 40. In reality, one was 36 1/2 and the other was 41. The button holes on one pair were noticeably ragged and poorly cut. The denim was cheap and thin. One pair came from Mexico. The other from Indonesia. These jeans are cheap crap and have been for years since Levi's outsourced them. I was skeptical when Zappos implied they measure true to size. I took a chance because they were on sale and free shipping both ways. Sending both back, and never again! ... not worth the trip to the UPS store to return them.

I bought these because I still haven't quite figured out the shrink-to-fit sizing on 501s. Be aware that the fabric on these looks very different from what you'd get with shrink-to-fit 501s. It's softer with more white fibers showing through--not the deep dark blue I was expecting. Still fit well though.

I'm a 33x34". My 501's that I have I love. Can't get enough of them. These are not 501's. They are super skinny in the thigh and the waist is at least 2" shy. My 33" waist 501's are actually a bit loose, but these I couldn't even button. Relabel these something different.

I love these jeans! I first bought them at Macy's. But I got a much better deal here. I bought two pairs. They fit great and make my butt look good!

I read the reviews before making a Levi purchase through Zappos and was just a bit hesitant but my wife has made many purchases here so I decided to go for it. I noted several prior reviews had complained that the Levi's they received were made in another country like Egypt and were of a lesser quality product - but I have to say that if you read the labels of the Levi's you buy from Macy's or Penny's or any other big box store, they all come from other countries these days as well. You get the same exact product! I am very satisfied with what I received from Zappos, exactly what I ordered and right on time! Thank you!

These are the only jeans my son will wear and Zappos had his hard-to-find size and color. The delivery was very fast and just as ordered!

I've been wearing Levi's 501s for 25+ years. You can't go wrong with these great fitting, long lasting jeans and getting excellent service as always from Zappos.com is a bonus!

Levi's. Not anything like they used to be. Supposed to be a working jean, I have worn them my whole life. Last pair (514's, only kind I could find in my size without a button fly) I bought ripped out in the crotch after 4 months. The material is flimsy and cannot withstand any hard time in the saddle or bucking hay, and they rip out through the back pockets. I bought six pairs of 512s 5 years ago and the last pair just wore out, should have bought a case, they would have seen me through...the latest ones simply suck and are for casual use only. So disappointed. I am a girl. I have worn 28x30's my entire adult life (I am 47), I like men's jeans best because womens jeans simply don't fit right and are also flimsy and more expensive. Guess I gotta try Wranglers or something (Yuck). Shame on you, Levis jeans.

I don't feel I need to rave over Levi's 501 original jeans. They've been pretty much the same for me for over 35 years. But never having ordered from Zappos, I was 110% happy with the availability of my size (36x36 when Levis.com didn't even carry them), the ease with which I ordered, the amazing efficiency and politeness of your staff and at the best available price. Went ahead and ordered 2 pairs but you'll be hearing from me in the future. Thank you.

My husband has big thighs from weight lifting and usually has a hard time with pants. These were roomy enough yet didn't look oversized. Great jeans esp for the price.
