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.

I ordered these because, generally, the only brands available for my size are umm...urban? Well, they're just flat out ghetto. These are classic and great fitting. I was concerned with Levi's typically being shrink-to-fit, but these shrink minimally and warm up/stretch nicely once on for about an hour. They seem to be a bit longer than my AE Jeans of the same size, but just barely.

Ordered Levi's and later ordered a pair of walking shoes. Received both orders the day after ordering. It's hard to beat good pricing, service and delivery when the three put together are what a consumer wants and needs. Vip.zappos.com has all three in spades

Levi 501s are the gold standard for jeans. The fit, the durability and the style are what any jeans should be all about. And Zappos delivers them quickly and for free. Doesn't get much better!

Looking specifically for the Levi jeans I stumbled across Zappos on the internet where I didn't even have to leave my house to purchase, or return without any hassles, and of course a great fit. Thanks Zappos!

I too am also a Levi's 501 original wearer for many years. Most of them I've had for (many) years are now considered vintage classics. I recently stocked up on an armful of these in the original shrink to fit button fly & several other colors before prices increased. These should last me for a good while. What I like most about the 501's is that these jeans will mold itself/customize itself to each person's body shape.This is usually achieved after several washings & wearings. This is the purpose of the shrink to fit property for each individual. Not all blue jeans have this capability & claim. Love my Levi's, still an American original.

In the constantly changing world of jeans fashion, slipping into a pair of never-changing 501's is nothing short of mind-medicine. Attractive & comfortable, they have been my go-to jeans for 50+ years. Thank you Zappos for your never-changing and unparalleled service and employee attitudes.

Much better quality than average jeans, I already have three pairs of this. Very elegant, so I can use it on weekdays and if I need to go to a more elegant place or even if I go to a party. The delivery was also fast and satisfactory. The price of this product was also pretty good.

Zappos.com makes life so much easier! As always my experience as customer was great, including order confirmation/notifications, one day delivery. Levi's is a tried and true, trusted brand--great quality, comfort and timeless style. And these 501 jeans were no exception: true to size, classic Levi fit and style.

I ordered these in Froggy for my fiance thinking that they were a dark blue. They are not--the jeans are a solid dark charcoal gray. He still likes them and wears them, but they are not the color in the picture

Purchased for my son who is 6'4" and 230 lbs. Length is an issue with other brands, Levi's seems to offer lengths we need. Just wish there were more styles of Levi's in the length/waist size we need. Fit is good, quality good. Will be purchasing these again.

My son loves these jeans, and they look great! Good fit, run a little short. He usually wears a 32 length, but these 34s were perfect.

This was the first time I've bought 501's online, because, mainly, when I go to the store I have to go through the whole stack to find straight seams. I ordered 3 pair of blue and one of black from Zappos, in one shipping, and all 4 pair were perfect -- seams and all! Saved me a load of time. Thanks.

Came the next day! Went to the Foot Locker and tried them on but they didn't have the color I wanted in my size, next day they arrived. Very hard to find a 29" inseam in stores, but Zappos has them. Muy Bien!

I have had my pair of 501 Originals for over a year now. I'm a tall, skinny guy who usually wears slimmer jeans (not the uber-skinny ones though). I was a little worried that these jeans would just end up looking too baggy on me, but once I tried them on with a pair of leather boots they held true to their "classic" moniker. The cut is straight through the leg (not too narrow or baggy) and I appreciated the little bit of extra room compared to my other jeans, which can feel constricting right out of the dryer. My one critique would be that it takes a while to really break these jeans in. They felt stiff even after the first few washes and the texture of the fabric is more coarse than I am used to. However, with wear, these jeans have become much softer and more pliable. If you are someone who loves to break things in for yourself (whether it be boots, baseball gloves, or jeans), I recommend these. A classic style that can't be beat. Levi's are the only jeans I wear and 501s are definitely part of my repertoire now.

Reviewed at Destination XL
I wore this pants when I was younger and as I got older, I wasn't able to find my size, so I tried other brands, but none were as comfortable. Now that I found that Casual Male XL has my size, I won't wear any other jean!
