These jeans fit my skinny legs extremely well and are very soft and comfortable. Construction is good, and the price at Zappos is hard to beat.

These 511's are great. The 1% spandex isn't noticeable in the look/feel of the fabric, but it allows the jeans to be just malleable enough to fit better than "shrink to fits". Only problem is that they lose color rather quickly, so don't wash/dry them frequently, similar to shrink to fits. They fit slightly small, but the stretch factor and time take care of that as they end up fitting better and not sagging in the long run.

These jeans are a perfect fit for a slim build. They seem to run true to size. The color of the faded black is awesome.

It\'s hard to find the 511 jean that is not all tripped up with some kind of fancy pants crap. The Hiro is the closest to plain jean in this cut. For some reason the ones I got from Zappos are a little bigger than ones I got elsewhere in the same size. I am a customer and seel Dekline Footwear to Zappos. Zappos both rule to customers and vendors! Thanks Zappos.

The 511 is my favorite style of Levis. They run a little smaller than their other jeans and so I ended up going with one size larger than I usually do.

These jeans are great. I'm 6'7 and 175 pounds so finding a pair of pants that fit is a pain. Even after I washed them they still fit perfectly. Didn't even shrink that much. Definitely better than my other 511 jeans.

Best pair of pants. The color does not wash off after several washes, and they fit perfectly out of the box.

I ordered these jeans for my husband. Very hard to find 'skinny leg jeans' in a size 40 waist in the stores. It seems the jeans are cut slightly different depending on the colors they came in (some legs were more tapered than the others) but all in all we were satisfied.

I am a twenty-something male, tall and slim. I own more than 10 pairs of this cut, and of those half of them are duplicates of my favorite pair. They're great. the denim is soft and will loosen up after you wear them for a while. they will mold to your body shape, and they will become your favorite pants. I personally favor the sidewalk, chain link, and new red. I get compliments all the time on the red ones.<3 these jeans.

Yeah these jeans are def comfy. I’m 5’11 so usually I get jeans 32 34, but with the Levis 511 32 32 fits perfectly. The only prob I had with these jeans are they run just a little shorter than the other ones. Not a flooding short, but they’re not as long as my other 511s, but overall great jean - washes great.

Great pair of jeans, wish they were still made in the US, or at least a country that has regards for its workers and the environment. They fit well right out of the box and are wearing well also. They look best with a pair of boots.

I love these jeans and would definitely recommend them! One thing that wasn't apparent to me before purchasing these jeans is that they are 2% Spandex, so they have a little stretchiness to them. This wasn’t a problem for me, but it might be for some people. This was my first purchase from Zappos and I couldn't be happier with the service that I received!

I absolutely love these jeans! They are a staple of my wardrobe; I currently have 3 pair. My most recent pair is the Cacao color, twill fabric, size 32x36. They fit me almost perfectly; I'm 6'4" and really thin, so finding the right pair of jeans is difficult, especially under $100. I have a little extra room in the waist, so I usually wear a belt to be on the safe side. The fit through the leg is great; they flatter my body without being tight, constricting, or uncomfortable. I could wear these pants all day! My favorite part about the twill fabric is that it stretches yet still maintains a crisp, flat, tightly woven appearance. Run your hand over the fabric, and it feels smooth and durable. Here in Seattle, I consider the twill 511s in a conservative color to be work-appropriate when worn with an oxford shirt and the right shoes; dress them down for an easy weekend look! Unlike the stiffer non-stretch denim versions, the twill doesn't create a "bunched" appearance around my kneecaps, but stays smooth and shapely from waist to ankle. The fast shipping still amazes me. I ordered the jeans at 2:00 on a Thursday, and they were waiting for me when I came home on Friday afternoon! Can't beat that.

Well worth what little you would pay for a joy like these jeans. I have mine on now and they really fit and feel good, and the stretch material really makes them a form fit. I would like more in different colors.

The chain link fits looser than black. I am 5'6" and 135 pounds with well built legs and butt from cycling 140 miles per week. The size 29/30 fit perfectly without a belt. The size 30/30 fit looser. Overall, it's not just in waist and I needed a belt. The stretch fabric is ideal for action, dancing, biking, etc. These are a great fit.

Zappos.com is a great company; I really enjoy shopping there for their many perks. Big assortment of merchandise, some of which is hard to find at a regular stores. They have great prices, it's easy & convenient to order, fast & free shipping, very friendly & helpful staff, & another big perk with shopping at Zappos.com is that if they happen not to have the color or size of the item your looking for, they will send you an e-mail & notify you as soon as it becomes available. All my friends & family shop here, too. I feel like a kid at a candy store shopping here at Zappos.com.

I am a girl who has problems with the fit of most women's pants. I wanted some skinnier pants that were not completely tapered to the ankle and yet wide and low at the hip and waist. I wanted a reliable fit live Levi's 501, but without the bulkier fabric in the hip and leg. Since trying them over a year ago, I have purchased this style pants in 5 colors and 2 sizes. They are all my favorite jeans. I wear the larger ones when I want a more relaxed, "boyfriend" look and the smaller ones when I want pants that are tighter, but not restricting. They are all quite flattering. All of the washes I've tried (Sky, Faded black, Chain link, Cacao, Clean Wash) have held up well. I never put the spandex blends in the dryer because I hate how it kills the stretch in other clothes I've had. I am considering these pants in 2 other washes.

I bought these for my son and he loves them! We have an extremely hard time finding pants that fit because he is 5'6" and 92 lbs. Very skinny. There are literally no other pants that fit him. These are the only ones that look like he's not "sagging" and actually have the right length.

These jeans are not too skinny or too baggy. There is no flair at the ankles of these jeans like others I have purchased.

I love Levi's 511 jeans! They fit perfectly, snug in the legs (but not ultra-tight like the 510) and hugs your back and front. The waist fits about 1.5-inches below the belly button on me and I'm 5'9" and a guy, which is just right and not too low that your crack starts showing. I bought the Dark Plum colored 511s and they're a deep, dark purple so now I have some colors other than blue. Even though I normally wear a 34 in the waist, for the 511 I go up to the next size 36 so that they don't feel too snug on me. These are the best cut Levi's around!

Color: Clean Dark. Great pair of pants. Very comfortable, and they fit perfectly. Not a skin tight pair of jeans (which is what I prefer), but still retains the feel of skinny jeans. It was hard to find a pair of black skinny jeans on Zappos that didn't use white string cotton for the outline of the back pockets. White string on back pocket and black jeans just looks too weird. These pair of jeans were as close as it gets to a dark back pocket outline, but it didn't bother me much. If you're looking for black skinny jeans, you can't go wrong with this one. The price and style makes your decision a no brainer.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
These jeans are good quality and have a little stretch to them but unfortunately I don’t like the tight fit in the groin that slim fit jeans have. If you like slim fit I think these are good jeans that look and feel pretty good. I’m 5’8” 145lbs and 30x30 fit me perfectly. I’m unfortunately returning due to not liking the slim
Fit style.

I wanted skinny, but Levi's currently doesn't make skinny, so I tried slim fit and that's what I got. They're being altered into skinnies. They seem to be a throwback to better days in that they're a thicker denim than other jeans. That means they'll last long, and depending on where you live they could be hot. I won't wear them in summer, given my climate. The sizing was perfect, no surprises (there shouldn't be). No baggy crotch, no extra room for thick thighs, no catering to the horrors of men's fashion, these are just good Levi's jeans.

I bought this dark wash pair in a 32x29. I have another pair of Levi's 511s in a 32x30, and somehow this dark wash is longer in the leg (I'm 5'8" for reference). Also I would recommend to buy a size or two up from your usual waist size. These also aren't quite as comfortable, but the material feels a bit tougher.

The fit is just what you'd expect from the 511's. The denim is on the summer weight side. They do stretch out a lot...you might want to order down if you are between sizes.
