the problem with levis is how inconsistent their fitting is. i have a pair of 501s bought from a retail store that fits differently from a pair of 501s bought online (same size different wash). this video is great though for getting the gist of the different cuts.
@@truckin3266 Hi there, fyi a different dye will always fit different in size. Lighter wash = looser fit (due to the fabric being more flexible), darker wash = tighter fit.

For many years (and even now) my go-to is the 511. For my height and weight it's perfect, but in recent years I branched out to the 501 and 505 and I love those styles as well. I know this video took a lot of time, money and effort so thank you very much for providing this for us!

511 stretch all day everyday, hands down best looking/ feeling and usability in a variety of applications. I ride my bicycle a lot and I walk a lot and it's perfect for both.
I wore 501s for decades, but when the 511 lower rise came out I changed over. The bit of stretch, slimmer fit and low rise fit me perfectly. It seems that the rise is not as low as it started out.
Absolutely the best Levi's jeans guide, it saved me from so much hassle of ordering multiple pair of jeans and returning them, I'm going to refer this video everybody!!!

Levi's Men's 501 Original Fit-Jeans, Black Coffee-Garment Dye, 40W x 32L just bought a pair and i have to say that i sized up from a 38 and its the best decision EVER fits like sweat pants its so comfortable and looks very good. You woundlt know i even sized up. Definitely love the Black Coffee brown color.
Wow. This has been the best guide I’ve seen. I wish this had been made years ago. Im a shorter man (5’6) and I hate how some jeans puddle up at my ankles, so the measurements were super helpful.

Appreciate the nice comment! I did spend a lot of time making this video so glad it’s helping you out. I also made an updated Levi’s guide reviewing 30 pairs that you can check out here: ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html
Best video on Levi’s fits❤❤ Loved it. I am a 512 person and own 2 pairs! And now I know the difference between 511 & 512! Thank you for the amazing video
One thing to note is this guy’s got some muscle on his legs. I wear 512s but they don’t look super uncomfortable on me cause there’s a bit more room for my legs. Best jeans I ever got
Thank you! I’ve always gone for the 505 but now I know I want to try the 514 and 569 next. It’s not easy fitting several kinds of jeans at once, and sometimes by the 3rd or so fitting, I’ve forgotten how the first one looked 😄. This was a great comparison video.
I've been in Commercial Construction for about 30 years. Used to be, I only wore 501s for work and play. About 5 years ago I quit wearing them at work. They used to last for ages. Something has changed though. Within a week of buying them, since about 2015, I would get a year in the denim right along the outside of the button fly assembly from the crotch up. It happened so many times over a few months I just stopped buying them as the quality has obviously been sacrificed. Too bad because I loved the fit for working on the slab.
My all time favourite from Levi's is the 503bxx model. Its a straight cut like the 501 but is much more relaxed through out. Love the silhouette. I picked one up form the Japanese LVC line a couple of years ago and its amazing!
Great video. Spent two hours trying on Levi's at Kohls and walked out with nothing due to frustration. Your video will give me a better starting point for my next visit. Thanks!

Awesome job on this video! Thank you for taking the time to purchase every one of these styles and trying them on. One of the most frustrating things about shopping for jeans is trying on a bunch that don't fit right and then I get fed up. I can see that I like the 514, 550, and 559. In the 90s, the 569 were my absolute favorite! However, they may be a little too baggy these days.

The first Denim Jeans 👖 that was made for miners in the 19th Century didn't have any belt loops like modern Jeans. The first Denim Jeans actually had buttons for the suspenders the belt loops started appearing somewhere in the 1920's.
The 501s today are so much softer today than when I was wearing them in hs 40 years ago. It took 5-6 washings to break them down. They were $10 on sale every fall at KMart.
AMAZING video bro. I think I liked the 514s the most. Been trying to find the best jean cut that works well with low shoes (Nike Killshots, Adidas Gazelles, etc) but also with dressier "work" boots (Thursdays, Red Wing Iron Rangers, etc) and it's been quite a journey
I’ve been a 501 guy for most of my adult life. I don’t remember the exact number but back in the mid-to-late 90s Levi’s had a “Baggy” line, they weren’t as baggy as say a JNCO but not as skinny as a 501, I still have a pair of those somewhere, they were the perfect balance, although a little to baggy for my 40yr old self day-to-day, got me some 501s as I do each year but also bought a pair of 514s since they were on sale and so far I’ve been loving them, it’s kinda like my old Baggy Levi’s had a son with some O.G. 501s, if you prefer your jeans being not so skinny and being able to combine with a wide range of shoes and sneakers the 514s were a really nice surprise, highly recommended! With that being said I think that every wardrobe needs a pair of 501s, I prefer the O.G.s the STF remind me of the classic Cheap Monday´s Denim, though I admit I prefer the denim of the Cheap Monday´s with that said they look cool but aren’t the most comfortable for everyday use, especially without having any elastane they can be a bitch to take off.
This is the best showcase of Levis Jeans I've ever seen. The 550s looked great on you but with the Chelsea boots I think you need them to be longer because they looked way too short. I know that we all have different tastes and for me any jeans that hug your thighs tight are a hard no even if they have some stretch so all the ones that hugged your thighs will be off my try on list. Thank you for this thorough comparison video.

Recently bought the 550, I’m surprised with how god and underrated they are, while everyone is talking about the 501 those are the ultimate dad jeans and are my fav so far.
Yeah, 550's are what I wear too, but the fit of mine are baggier than the ones shown in this video. That's what I like though. More comfy and better freedom of movement.
Great video. It taught me a lot regarding fits. I've been a 505 guy for years, but I didn't know better until now. After watching your video, I think the 541 Athletic Taper and 550 Relaxed would fit me best. Thank you for the education!
Just bought 2 pair of the 541 Athletic taper….as soon as I put them on I knew they were the ones. Nice and comfortable through the seat and thigh yet not baggy and sloppy looking below the knee. Just how I like it! 👍🏻

there are a few more additions to the lineup - 551Z, 506, 568, the 555 and the 565 have reintroduced, the stay loose (no number assigned, just says stay loose on the leather patch), western fit and slivertab loose tapered and relaxed straight. though, i've only seen the 555 and 565 on the levis website. 551Z comes in several different fits - relaxed straight, loose straight and baggy.
Hey I didn't forget about your comment! Check out my updated Levi's guide featuring 16 new fits (including the ones your recommended)! ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html
Your video last year helped me buy 4 pairs of 512, gave 2 to my cousins and kept 2 to myself. Then bought my grandpa 502, other family members got 501s since they love the OG.
The problem that I have with jeans and pants in general, is that many brands don’t offer 👖 with 28’ in length. Yes there are tailoring service, but where I live they charge almost the cost of the pants itself, so I won’t pay twice just to get it to fit me. Hopefully someone will market their products to short man. Same issue with coats and denim jackets, the arm length is always an issue. I would think someone would know that we all come with different leg and arm lengths 🤔
Great video! Hands down the best one out there. Thank you for spending the money and time to do such a thorough job. I started with 501 STF back in the day. After I got tired of the button fly, I wore 505s and 550s for years. More recently I’ve bought quite a few pairs of 514s and 511s, which fit me great. But now in my early 60s, my body has changed and I need to go back to high-waisted jeans and use suspenders. I’m returning to the 505 and will see how that works.
I don't mind the buttoned fly; I am more concerned about the waist so I have 505 but wish the waist was just a little higher. Any advice? I'm also a senior, Thank you.😎
Thanks for the comment, really made my day. Enjoy your 505s, I really like the pair I got recently. If you're interested, check out my updated Levi's guide featuring 16 new fits! ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html

Great video! I've really been liking the 511's. I have an old pair of 501's that I love, but now when I try on a new pair of 501's the cut and fit seems totally different, like baggier and higher on the hip. A new pair of 511's fit more like my old 501's though. Would like to try the 513's sometime, but I haven't seen them in store yet.
ahaha, even i'm a woman, back then when i was young i had a 501 and loved them. because of his video i will buy again and definitely will try 511 and 505. 😂 women jeans have weird cuts in the last years....
Very informative and concise video! Small details such as; displaying the stats of each pair of jeans while they are being showcased makes for a much more accessible and helpful video.
I'd love a video like this on Wrangler's "Cowboy Cut" family, because there's a few different cuts in there and something like this would be an invaluable resource for people looking to try the most compelling Levi's alternative.
Thank you for sharing this very detailed and informative video on Levi's. I am slim build and tend to stick with the 511's, They have slight strech and tick all the boxes for me. But, I find i still have to buy them from the shop as they vary in fit size and need to try on a few before finding my perfect fit so buying online is not an option.
Great video. Levi’s should definitely hire you, you’ve done a better job than their marketing team. Personally love the high waisted fit and material of the 501 shrink to fit. Levi’s elsewhere has been a dud in terms of durability, I’ve made a swap to the Wranglers MW13 Rigid Blue Original Cowboy Cut as my go to now.
I own 2 505 jeans from Costco. Initially they felt tight at the hips and thighs but after couple of washes, they really fit great. After seeing this video, I would like to get a 514.
Thank you! I have similar thighs to you and seeing this guide helped me find what I like. I always went for slim and skinny, but it’s time for me to move on lol
Personally (33"x32", 5'11", 180lbs) I like the fit and feel of the 501s & 505s with one size up (34") to have just a bit more room in the thighs. I have recently tried a pair of 511s Stretch (34“) and they feel comfortable and not restrictive like I thought they would be, probably because of the stretch. The perfect overall and go-to jeans are the 514s (33"), bar none, they fit right, look great and are simply comfortable no matter the activity. I also have to use safety boots at work so I'm looking for options. I really didn't like the fit of the 517 & 527 Boot Cuts because they are WAY too restrictive for my boys down there, even two sizes up. I have tried a pair of 550s (33") and they are growing on me. There is definitely plenty of room everywhere and I can use them with the work boots.
I feel like the 501 93 fit is such a comfortable fit for those that want more comfort in their 501 choice. I feel like my legs breathe easier wearing those 😂
I recently bought a bunch of foreign made 501's from TJ Maxx and Marshall's- from many different stores. They're not as good as they used to be, and they take some work, but they just fit better. If you get a pair of 501's to fit right - you will never go back.
Great work reviewing the various styles!👍🏽 I’ve been wearing Levi’s for over 25 years now, experimenting with different styles. One thing I’ve noticed is that the dimensions have not been consistent over the years. For example…a 505 today fits differently when compared to a 505 from the 90s or 2000s. Same seems to be the case for other styles too. It gets a little dicey when we order online expecting the jeans to fit the way we expect it to.
I agree. The 505 I got from this year fits a lot more loose compared to the 505 I got 4 years ago shown in this video. If you're interested, check out my updated Levi's guide featuring 16 new fits! ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html
Well, man... thanks a bunch! It's a VERY helpful video. There are so many Levi's numbers that I kind of got lost through the years... which one was ones were the best for me? Now I know which one to go for. Thank you so much!!

My only comment is “ I think he should wear a 32 inseam instead of a 30” but that may be a matter of a style choice. As I am 53 years old, I am looking as if I were wearing them in the eighties. I don’t know how the fashionable people are wearing them today. I really enjoyed the video and found it very informative and entertaining. Who knows, I may retire the old carhartts and buy me some new 505’s. Just like I used to wear 35 years and 100 pounds ago. lol.
Such a detailed guide on Levi jeans. Thank you so much. Just bought my husband the 505, love them. However, I was wondering about the pronounced yellow stitching around the pockets of the dark blue denim. From the looks of it, that's a common trademark for their dark blues. Thanks, again.

@@ProfessorUFC The 512 feel a bit tighter but fit better with sneakers since they're shorter even at the same dimensions as my 511 (32W-30L), however I noticed later they have twisted seams. For the 502 I went with 31W. They're just a bit longer than 512 but shorter than 511 which I find perfect with boots but the leg openings are a bit too wide when wearing sneakers.

I like skinny cuts, specially relaxed skinny which, I don’t think Levi’s have. But, I go a size up. 511 and 502 are great choices too, IMO. I was gifted a 517 but, oddly, the leg openings are way wider than what you have. I brought it to a Taylor and had it narrowed from below the knee down to the leg opening which is now at 6.5 I’m 5’9 with lean legs. For me, leg openings of anywhere between 6-7 are ideal
I wore my mom's 503s from the 80s fro the 2000s to mid-2010s until my waist went past 32". I got a pair of light wash 501: one W 32" L 32", the other had a L 36" my 33-34 waist could fit, used those up until 2022 coz my waist got bigger at 35". Hope to loose weight to use them again. Right now got a 505 and 511 to add to the mix.
Thanks for sharing that, 505 and 511 is a great choice. If you're interested, check out my updated Levi's guide featuring 16 new fits! ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html
Good show. In my opinion your frame looks best in the 501 button down original and the 514. The 501's because the waist was smaller and the 514 from the back because the pockets were set closer to the central seem in the back which made your derrière look less broad. I am not the tallest guy around but at 6'2, 180 lbs I also prefer the 501 button down classic with the smaller waist and long inseam length is best. Always has been. A mention of the available inseam lengths would have made your show perfect. I also liked your image of laying in the tub in warm water then wearing them dry. I am a horseman (the odd on off who prefers Levi's over Wranglers Lol) so my version of your suggestion is to jump in the pool then ride my motorcycle to the barn then mount a a horse with my chaps on--and ride until they are dry. A couple of sessions like that and they are mine forever!

I've been desiring a video like this for my whole life. Wow! Amazing. Thank you. I wore levis my whole life. Mainly the 514, but I've been looking for a slimmer fit. There's so many it's confusing af! This was great. I like the 511 and 502. I need to go try these. I wear a lot of Jordans and need some nice jeans to complement. 514 sometimes looks too baggy. Thanks again. 👍🏼 Levis should pay you! Lol. Side note. Some of the jeans you wore almost looked too short. An employee mentioned to me that 501 and 505 are the same jean except for the zipper part. But the measurements are different.

I’m a 511 guy, but I still try them on before I buy, because they’re not all created equal when it comes to the material. I avoid the stretchy denim, because it’s too baggy, and doesn’t shrink down to fit me like the standard cotton denim.
I bought my first pair of Levi blue jeans a few weeks ago. When I tried them on in the fitting room (aka dressing room) at the store, they fitted perfectly. When I got home, I washed them. Afterwards, I put them on, just to find out they shrunk so much that it was impossible for me to wear them. One of the churches that I attend was having a clothing drive for the St. Vincent de Paul Society Thrift Store so I went ahead and donated those pants. So somebody that shops at thrift stores will have a chance to buy a new pair of Levi blue jean pants. For now on, I am going to stick with Wrangler.
My favourites are the recent Engineered Jeans. Discontinued unfortunately but hopefully will return again with a further evolution. I like 501s and 502s too.

One thing to note is this guy’s got some muscle on his legs. I wear 512s but they don’t look super uncomfortable on me cause there’s a bit more room for my legs. Best jeans I ever got

550 the best and relaxed one. I ve just purchased it. I love it
Yeah they look gangster, I have a 34x34

Thank you! I’ve always gone for the 505 but now I know I want to try the 514 and 569 next. It’s not easy fitting several kinds of jeans at once, and sometimes by the 3rd or so fitting, I’ve forgotten how the first one looked 😄. This was a great comparison video.
I've been in Commercial Construction for about 30 years. Used to be, I only wore 501s for work and play. About 5 years ago I quit wearing them at work. They used to last for ages. Something has changed though. Within a week of buying them, since about 2015, I would get a year in the denim right along the outside of the button fly assembly from the crotch up. It happened so many times over a few months I just stopped buying them as the quality has obviously been sacrificed. Too bad because I loved the fit for working on the slab.
My all time favourite from Levi's is the 503bxx model. Its a straight cut like the 501 but is much more relaxed through out. Love the silhouette. I picked one up form the Japanese LVC line a couple of years ago and its amazing!
Great video. Spent two hours trying on Levi's at Kohls and walked out with nothing due to frustration. Your video will give me a better starting point for my next visit. Thanks!
Same here it’s so annoying

Awesome job on this video! Thank you for taking the time to purchase every one of these styles and trying them on. One of the most frustrating things about shopping for jeans is trying on a bunch that don't fit right and then I get fed up.
I can see that I like the 514, 550, and 559.
In the 90s, the 569 were my absolute favorite! However, they may be a little too baggy these days.
I got a pair of 559 and 550 and love both of them for that reason!

The first Denim Jeans 👖 that was made for miners in the 19th Century didn't have any belt loops like modern Jeans. The first Denim Jeans actually had buttons for the suspenders the belt loops started appearing somewhere in the 1920's.
The 501s today are so much softer today than when I was wearing them in hs 40 years ago. It took 5-6 washings to break them down. They were $10 on sale every fall at KMart.
AMAZING video bro. I think I liked the 514s the most. Been trying to find the best jean cut that works well with low shoes (Nike Killshots, Adidas Gazelles, etc) but also with dressier "work" boots (Thursdays, Red Wing Iron Rangers, etc) and it's been quite a journey
I’ve been a 501 guy for most of my adult life. I don’t remember the exact number but back in the mid-to-late 90s Levi’s had a “Baggy” line, they weren’t as baggy as say a JNCO but not as skinny as a 501, I still have a pair of those somewhere, they were the perfect balance, although a little to baggy for my 40yr old self day-to-day, got me some 501s as I do each year but also bought a pair of 514s since they were on sale and so far I’ve been loving them, it’s kinda like my old Baggy Levi’s had a son with some O.G. 501s, if you prefer your jeans being not so skinny and being able to combine with a wide range of shoes and sneakers the 514s were a really nice surprise, highly recommended! With that being said I think that every wardrobe needs a pair of 501s, I prefer the O.G.s the STF remind me of the classic Cheap Monday´s Denim, though I admit I prefer the denim of the Cheap Monday´s with that said they look cool but aren’t the most comfortable for everyday use, especially without having any elastane they can be a bitch to take off.
This is the best showcase of Levis Jeans I've ever seen. The 550s looked great on you but with the Chelsea boots I think you need them to be longer because they looked way too short. I know that we all have different tastes and for me any jeans that hug your thighs tight are a hard no even if they have some stretch so all the ones that hugged your thighs will be off my try on list. Thank you for this thorough comparison video.
514 fit the best IMO. Complemented you body shape right. Thanks for this video
glad my video helped!
As a viewer I could say there is real hard work done behind the scene in making this video. Absolutely the best Levi's video ever made.

541 athletic taper stretch is a great one too, for fit and comfort.

Just got a pair of levis 559 and 511. Both pairs of jeans are my favorite. All you need in terms of straight and slim fit.
Recently bought the 550, I’m surprised with how god and underrated they are, while everyone is talking about the 501 those are the ultimate dad jeans and are my fav so far.
550 is the best imo
Yeah, 550's are what I wear too, but the fit of mine are baggier than the ones shown in this video. That's what I like though. More comfy and better freedom of movement.
I just got the 512 because I got it cheap. I wanna learn more about Levi's cuts and found your video. Well-explained, thank you!
Great video. It taught me a lot regarding fits. I've been a 505 guy for years, but I didn't know better until now. After watching your video, I think the 541 Athletic Taper and 550 Relaxed would fit me best.
Thank you for the education!
Just bought 2 pair of the 541 Athletic taper….as soon as I put them on I knew they were the ones. Nice and comfortable through the seat and thigh yet not baggy and sloppy looking below the knee. Just how I like it! 👍🏻

513 are perfect with high cut timberlands. The can fit over or under the boot and arent super baggy
the 511 has always been my go to. thanks to your helpful video, i might give the 512 a shot!
Yes 511s are king if you’re under 30! People sleep on slim fit these days
Lol I’m 45 and wear 511 daily. Love the fit.
510 is better than 511!
Same here

501 & 514 are my go-to jeans
Awesome work! The shrink to fit 501s is how they came when I was young. It was a part of the cool thing to do the shrink ritual ❤
Im a 501 guy. Recently bought two 513s and 511s. They're also really comfortable as well
there are a few more additions to the lineup - 551Z, 506, 568, the 555 and the 565 have reintroduced, the stay loose (no number assigned, just says stay loose on the leather patch), western fit and slivertab loose tapered and relaxed straight. though, i've only seen the 555 and 565 on the levis website. 551Z comes in several different fits - relaxed straight, loose straight and baggy.
Hey I didn't forget about your comment! Check out my updated Levi's guide featuring 16 new fits (including the ones your recommended)! ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html
great video! the low rise of the 511 always made them feel tighter than the 510 for me up top, might have to try some 512s now!
Your video last year helped me buy 4 pairs of 512, gave 2 to my cousins and kept 2 to myself. Then bought my grandpa 502, other family members got 501s since they love the OG.
That's really cool to hear! Your fam sounds super stylish now thanks to you lol
@@MensFashionFiles they love Levi's, I prefer joggers but am moving to a more mature wardrobe.
The problem that I have with jeans and pants in general, is that many brands don’t offer 👖 with 28’ in length. Yes there are tailoring service, but where I live they charge almost the cost of the pants itself, so I won’t pay twice just to get it to fit me. Hopefully someone will market their products to short man.
Same issue with coats and denim jackets, the arm length is always an issue. I would think someone would know that we all come with different leg and arm lengths 🤔
I like the 514s on you best. The 541, 550, and 559s are okay too, but a couple of them looked too short by at least 1/2".
Great video! Hands down the best one out there. Thank you for spending the money and time to do such a thorough job.
I started with 501 STF back in the day. After I got tired of the button fly, I wore 505s and 550s for years. More recently I’ve bought quite a few pairs of 514s and 511s, which fit me great. But now in my early 60s, my body has changed and I need to go back to high-waisted jeans and use suspenders. I’m returning to the 505 and will see how that works.
I don't mind the buttoned fly; I am more concerned about the waist so I have 505 but wish the waist was just a little higher. Any advice? I'm also a senior, Thank you.😎
Thanks for the comment, really made my day. Enjoy your 505s, I really like the pair I got recently.

Great video! I've really been liking the 511's. I have an old pair of 501's that I love, but now when I try on a new pair of 501's the cut and fit seems totally different, like baggier and higher on the hip. A new pair of 511's fit more like my old 501's though. Would like to try the 513's sometime, but I haven't seen them in store yet.
The biggest issue is the stores not always everything to try on. I love online shopping for varieties and better deals.
ahaha, even i'm a woman, back then when i was young i had a 501 and loved them. because of his video i will buy again and definitely will try 511 and 505. 😂 women jeans have weird cuts in the last years....
Very informative and concise video! Small details such as; displaying the stats of each pair of jeans while they are being showcased makes for a much more accessible and helpful video.
Thanks for the comment. Enjoy your Levi’s!
I'd love a video like this on Wrangler's "Cowboy Cut" family, because there's a few different cuts in there and something like this would be an invaluable resource for people looking to try the most compelling Levi's alternative.
511 and 512 are the ones I prefer. Not too tight, but not too baggy.
Way better than what levis does for their marketing
Thank you for sharing this very detailed and informative video on Levi's. I am slim build and tend to stick with the 511's, They have slight strech and tick all the boxes for me. But, I find i still have to buy them from the shop as they vary in fit size and need to try on a few before finding my perfect fit so buying online is not an option.
Great video. Levi’s should definitely hire you, you’ve done a better job than their marketing team. Personally love the high waisted fit and material of the 501 shrink to fit. Levi’s elsewhere has been a dud in terms of durability, I’ve made a swap to the Wranglers MW13 Rigid Blue Original Cowboy Cut as my go to now.
I own 2 505 jeans from Costco. Initially they felt tight at the hips and thighs but after couple of washes, they really fit great.
After seeing this video, I would like to get a 514.
Thank you! I have similar thighs to you and seeing this guide helped me find what I like. I always went for slim and skinny, but it’s time for me to move on lol
Personally (33"x32", 5'11", 180lbs) I like the fit and feel of the 501s & 505s with one size up (34") to have just a bit more room in the thighs.
I have recently tried a pair of 511s Stretch (34“) and they feel comfortable and not restrictive like I thought they would be, probably because of the stretch.
The perfect overall and go-to jeans are the 514s (33"), bar none, they fit right, look great and are simply comfortable no matter the activity.
I also have to use safety boots at work so I'm looking for options. I really didn't like the fit of the 517 & 527 Boot Cuts because they are WAY too restrictive for my boys down there, even two sizes up. I have tried a pair of 550s (33") and they are growing on me. There is definitely plenty of room everywhere and I can use them with the work boots.
A very well made video that can guide a prospective buyer through the maze of various fits of the Levi range of jeans.
Best and most helpful video for me, a mom of 14 and 16 yr old boys!
Awesome! You sound like a wonderful mom doing research
I feel like the 501 93 fit is such a comfortable fit for those that want more comfort in their 501 choice. I feel like my legs breathe easier wearing those 😂
I recently bought a bunch of foreign made 501's from TJ Maxx and Marshall's- from many different stores. They're not as good as they used to be, and they take some work, but they just fit better. If you get a pair of 501's to fit right - you will never go back.
Man u did a great work with this video, thank you so much u made it much easier for me to choose my Levi's jeans next time.
Really happy to hear that man. Enjoy you new levi's
Great work reviewing the various styles!👍🏽
I’ve been wearing Levi’s for over 25 years now, experimenting with different styles. One thing I’ve noticed is that the dimensions have not been consistent over the years. For example…a 505 today fits differently when compared to a 505 from the 90s or 2000s. Same seems to be the case for other styles too. It gets a little dicey when we order online expecting the jeans to fit the way we expect it to.
I agree. The 505 I got from this year fits a lot more loose compared to the 505 I got 4 years ago shown in this video. If you're interested, check out my updated Levi's guide featuring 16 new fits! ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html
I can't believe the companies that make them don't better advertise what they make, instead of just letting everyone suffer with misfitting clothing.
I have been always thinking the same. Not all of those model numbers fit well on everyone.
Nice review. My go to are the 541 as I have bigger thighs and calves. 501 are my second choice - like my shrink to fit.
The tight jeans era is gone, like 70s flares .
Well, man... thanks a bunch! It's a VERY helpful video. There are so many Levi's numbers that I kind of got lost through the years... which one was ones were the best for me? Now I know which one to go for.
Thank you so much!!

My only comment is “ I think he should wear a 32 inseam instead of a 30” but that may be a matter of a style choice. As I am 53 years old, I am looking as if I were wearing them in the eighties. I don’t know how the fashionable people are wearing them today. I really enjoyed the video and found it very informative and entertaining. Who knows, I may retire the old carhartts and buy me some new 505’s. Just like I used to wear 35 years and 100 pounds ago. lol.
Such a detailed guide on Levi jeans. Thank you so much. Just bought my husband the 505, love them. However, I was wondering about the pronounced yellow stitching around the pockets of the dark blue denim. From the looks of it, that's a common trademark for their dark blues. Thanks, again.

THATS FOR THE COMPARISONS AT THE END! So useful!!
I wore a lot of these styles from high school to college.😊
I used to wear 511s all my life but lately I have replaced all of them with 510s and 512s. I am going for a tight, snug fit these days.
We all wear pants and want them to fit right. Most insightful video i've watched all month. Thank you.

I was looking for a model similar to my 511 but with a smaller leg opening. Thanks so much for the guide, I'm going to try the 502 and 512.
How do you like them compared to the 511?
@@ProfessorUFC The 512 feel a bit tighter but fit better with sneakers since they're shorter even at the same dimensions as my 511 (32W-30L), however I noticed later they have twisted seams. For the 502 I went with 31W. They're just a bit longer than 512 but shorter than 511 which I find perfect with boots but the leg openings are a bit too wide when wearing sneakers.
I don't know why I like it so much, the 505, next 514, and lastly 501. I hope the 3 will not be discontinued
I’m going to save this one-great job translating Levi’s incomprehensible product listing. Thanks!

Awesome video. 511s are my favorite. It’s literally the only Jean I’ll wear
Gotta try the 501 stretch denim. Best jeans I've ever owned.
Wish Levi’s would bring back the 525. Absolutely killer👌👌
Levi's should pay this guy and put this on their site.. Great job!
Thanks for the comment, really made my day. If you're interested, check out my updated Levi's guide featuring 16 new fits! ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html
511 hands down the best cut. Timeless piece.
I love the 511s as well. If you're interested, check out my updated Levi's guide featuring 16 new fits! ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html
I've got about 6 pairs of 501s and they all have different denim (4 are heavy, 2 are light)
Favorite 501 and 550 in a Levi. I also Like wrangler with higher waist. On you the 550.
I like skinny cuts, specially relaxed skinny which, I don’t think Levi’s have. But, I go a size up. 511 and 502 are great choices too, IMO. I was gifted a 517 but, oddly, the leg openings are way wider than what you have. I brought it to a Taylor and had it narrowed from below the knee down to the leg opening which is now at 6.5
I’m 5’9 with lean legs. For me, leg openings of anywhere between 6-7 are ideal
I wore my mom's 503s from the 80s fro the 2000s to mid-2010s until my waist went past 32". I got a pair of light wash 501: one W 32" L 32", the other had a L 36" my 33-34 waist could fit, used those up until 2022 coz my waist got bigger at 35". Hope to loose weight to use them again.
Right now got a 505 and 511 to add to the mix.
Thanks for sharing that, 505 and 511 is a great choice. If you're interested, check out my updated Levi's guide featuring 16 new fits! ruclips.net/video/mKQoRQc8iSs/видео.html
For my preference, 512 and, surprisingly, 502 ;). And I always thought 510 and 511 would suit my style best.
I love my 501s I'm a button fly kinda guy. I wish each model had a button fly option. Like a 569BF 517BF etc.
502, 511 and 512 are my favorite
Good show. In my opinion your frame looks best in the 501 button down original and the 514. The 501's because the waist was smaller and the 514 from the back because the pockets were set closer to the central seem in the back which made your derrière look less broad. I am not the tallest guy around but at 6'2, 180 lbs I also prefer the 501 button down classic with the smaller waist and long inseam length is best. Always has been. A mention of the available inseam lengths would have made your show perfect. I also liked your image of laying in the tub in warm water then wearing them dry. I am a horseman (the odd on off who prefers Levi's over Wranglers Lol) so my version of your suggestion is to jump in the pool then ride my motorcycle to the barn then mount a a horse with my chaps on--and ride until they are dry. A couple of sessions like that and they are mine forever!
501 for life
I'm always love the 80''s high waisted slim for men..the straight cuts
Excellent report. The only video I've ever seen that really gives valuable info on Levi's.

I've been desiring a video like this for my whole life. Wow! Amazing. Thank you. I wore levis my whole life. Mainly the 514, but I've been looking for a slimmer fit. There's so many it's confusing af! This was great. I like the 511 and 502. I need to go try these. I wear a lot of Jordans and need some nice jeans to complement. 514 sometimes looks too baggy. Thanks again. 👍🏼
Levis should pay you! Lol. Side note. Some of the jeans you wore almost looked too short. An employee mentioned to me that 501 and 505 are the same jean except for the zipper part. But the measurements are different.

I’m a 511 guy, but I still try them on before I buy, because they’re not all created equal when it comes to the material. I avoid the stretchy denim, because it’s too baggy, and doesn’t shrink down to fit me like the standard cotton denim.
I bought my first pair of Levi blue jeans a few weeks ago. When I tried them on in the fitting room (aka dressing room) at the store, they fitted perfectly. When I got home, I washed them. Afterwards, I put them on, just to find out they shrunk so much that it was impossible for me to wear them. One of the churches that I attend was having a clothing drive for the St. Vincent de Paul Society Thrift Store so I went ahead and donated those pants. So somebody that shops at thrift stores will have a chance to buy a new pair of Levi blue jean pants. For now on, I am going to stick with Wrangler.
My favourites are the recent Engineered Jeans. Discontinued unfortunately but hopefully will return again with a further evolution. I like 501s and 502s too.
