Have other colors of this same pair of jeans...but in this color the size was much smaller. Too small. I returned or am hoping to exchange to larger pair.

Not made for fellas with muscular legs and narrow waists! Also not a fan of the edgy dye of these jeans.

Fit really nicely, the dye was just a bit too edgy for me.

They run short! About an inch shorter than my other Levi's of the same size.

These say they are slim fit but they definitely are not. They look and fit like traditional shrink to fit 501s. Will be returning them. They are also lighter in color than the online image.

This color looks nothing like the picture. The actual jeans look acid washed.

They are not as tight around the ankle as a slim fit jean would typically be. And they didn't fit like the 511 I ordered last year. I returned.

Really well fitting but the light stitching is kind of off trend

Jeans are a hard material and fit really tight. Color is good just a tough material to walk around!

I don't seem to be the same fit as other 511---seem baggier in the leg bottoms. Didn't love the finish either---appears to have a bit of sheen to it. love all our other 511's we've ordered in the past---just not this color. 15 year old son says to send back!

This are great jeans because they are Levi's but I would only recommend them if you are super skinny. I'm a slim/athletic build 5"9 and about 165 lb and these are too tight in the crotch area for me. I want to try the 513's which I read are the perfect medium for slim fit straight fit jeans.

Got the pumped up which contains 2% elastane. By the middle of the afternoon, they were stretched out and sliding off. My fault for not checking the fabric content, but it's a little irritating.

It was too baggy. Usually most jeans are never slim fit for 42x30.

A little too stretchy for me - after the first couple of times you wear them they tend to sag in certain areas, but very comfortable.

Definitely should've paid more attention to previous reviewers. These jeans are tiny! could barely button them and they were sized way too small. I have to return them and may order them in a size larger. They look good and I really like the dark denim wash. The stitching looks great too. Hopefully the other size will fit, will get back with you.

Bought 2 of these Levi jeans for son who is 6'6. Fit well however not denim...more spandex and this has NO reflect on Zappos it is Levi using cheap material and higher or same price.

At first the jeans were awesome! They fit great and were exactly what I was expecting... and then I washed them. I followed the wash directions on the tag and still the jeans came out about 2 inches shorter in length and fit completely different. Just beware, and by beware I mean don't wash them!

Bought these in 29W32L because they were the same style number and size as another pair that I really like (Levi's Mens 511, Slim/Skinny Fit, Hybrid Trouser). I thought they would just be nice to have in another color. These pants, however, fit completely differently, in that they don't. If you are a eunuch, these pants might be for you.

The anthracite color is actually waxed black which after only one washing has faded into a weird off-navy blue color. Also, this wax treatment makes them pick up stains very easily that cannot be cleaned off individually. If you try to dab the stain off, you're left with a weird halo stain because of how the waxed layer interacts with water. I normally never wash my jeans -- I put them in the freezer in a ziploc bag sprinkled with baking soda -- and I'm afraid this pair will require repeated washings.

The "rigid gray" don't really look great. I agree with a previous reviewer that each pair of Levi's fits a little differently. I found that the "Anthracite" pair fit great, so I kept those.

I wanted to get on the skinny jeans bandwagon, even as a 40 year old, I like to keep up with trends. I thought the dark color would make these conservative enough to wear on work on casual days. However, this style was really to young looking for me and not conservative at all. I am tall and thin, but these were really "skinny" and tight through legs. I felt like I looked like an aging rock star in these. From the picture these don't look like really stretch-slim jeans but in reality, they are. These are better suited for a younger trendier guy. The color was nice, and they appeared well made though.

I've had three pairs of these now, and they're great while they last. Unfortunately, they don't usually last long. My latest pair developed holes within 8 months! Cheap, but I would expect even cheap jeans to last longer than that.

My son measures at a 26" waist and could not zip the size 28. Had to send them back. The Levi's 514 fit him well.

For as much as I love Levi's, I absolutely hate them. I have over 6 pairs of these in the same sizes but different colors, and each pair fit's COMPLETELY different. Every part of the fit is different, too. Some of them fit extremely tight, others are perfect, and others are extremely loose, some of them are high-waders, some are way too long, and some fit perfect, some are like corset's, some I need a belt, and again, some are perfect. It makes it really irritating spending as much money as Levi's are and having to guess how they're going to fit, even though you have 10 pairs in your drawer. You think with as large of a company that they are they would put more emphasis on trying to make every pair as similar as possible to eliminate the guessing game. But when you do get that perfect pair they are extremely comfortable and look great, which is why I continue take the risk.
