Customer Reviews Levi's® Mens 559™ Relaxed Straight

These 559's are no way the same 559's from a few years ago.These pants are way to slim in the leg and way to huge in the waist.... not sure who is making these Levis but they are not at all like the old ones. Sad!

Why - Lycra. These were my goto pants for years. Now (within the last year) they've added lycra, aka spandex. Immediately, you can see and feel a difference in the durability and overall fit. Adding spandex makes little sense in a loose fit pant, and the change makes sizing vague (go back to the store and find a good fit). Durability wise, scuffing causes threading and snagging befitting wool-knit pants. This should not be a problem with denim. Not to mention dirt retention; lycra is notorious for holding onto organic dirt etc...permanently. Levi's should change the style number or something when they make a change to the material quality of a product like this. Make it stop...please.

The belt loops and pockets are sewn poorly.

purchased two pair in both of them had the belt loop break in the exact same spot I have noticed that the larger jeans do not have the same quality once you pass in size 42

The waist size was 48 but needed like 54 or 56. Not for big and tall

Item was returned

Waist fits just right, the butt pulls up under your taint. Thighs and legs fit right. Length seems too long.

These are so tight, they are not relaxed. I'm slim 6'1" tall and 190 lbs and have a 34 inch waist. My old pairs of relaxed jeans fit great, these are tight. Not comfortable at all.

Horrible. Both 529's I tried literally fit different from one another. I don't mean a little bit off . . . they looked like 2 different styles of pant.

Total garbage. Thin material and a belt loop broke in the first 3 wears. I am done with Levi's - after 35+ years of loyalty!

I don't know who these are supposed to fit. The waist is absolutely huge compared to the legs. Belt required unless you are built like a potato on stilts. They'd be fine if they weren't tailored like hip waders.

Would like to break down the review into 2 areas: 1. The provider (Zappos) - Very very prompt and helpful in resolving the queries I have about overseas orders. I would rate a 4 out of 5. 2. The Product (Levi's) - I seriously have no idea why they have degraded their products by substituting with such inferior material, soft as hell. I reckon it will not last 3 months subjecting to daily usage. Have no choice but to give away my pair. Rating: 1 out of 5.

I returned them - they were to thin.

Once again, Levis misses a chance to serve the population of men with muscles. Instead it chooses to make skinny jeans for skeletons. Disappointed to say the least. If you're a dude with some beef, these will be tight and the low rise is really uncomfortable and looks silly.

Bought these for my son who has worn 559s for several years with no problems. For his birthday, he requested 559s in 32/32 (his usual size) and sub-zero color. They arrived and they were huge. They were returned for a 31/32 in the same color and, again, were huge. These were also returned. We compared these 559s to the older ones he currently has, and noticed that the fabric on the new jeans seemed to be much thinner. Since there seems to be no uniformity in the way Levi's jeans are made these days, my son will now go to the mall to try on Levi's before buying or learn to love another brand that is more consistent in sizing.

Not the Levi material or quality I have been buying for 3 decades. Flimsy cloth and irregular stiching. Second pair I bough that had no consistancy of sizing. Good thing I bought through Zappos. No hastle free return policy is tops in the industry.

Regular price @ Levi's .com for the big and tall size is [$]. Currently on sale for [$]

I tried to purchase these jeans from this company and it took them three weeks to tell me they didn't carry them any longer and that they would not offer a similar pair of jeans in exchange. I was left with no birthday gift that I had already told me husband he was getting. I would never purchase anything from this company again.
