Levi'sMen's 501 Slim Fit Jeans

Right after Christmas of 2013, i bought three pairs of these Levis jeans. At 40 dollars with free shipping and tons of Christmas gift cards to spare, i couldn't pass up the deal! The Colors i bought were, Rinsed playa, Black stretch, and Rigid grey. The first pair i received were the Rigid grey, and they looked and felt great! and my girlfriend loved the color on me. I have a shorter yet athletic built standing at slightly over 5'6'' and 145 pound, the 31x30 in Rigid grey fit very well, not even needing a belt. They were not too skinny, i am able to pull the material from my thighs and show that they are some what loosly fit, but not baggy!! They have some break at my ankles, but with shoes on its the exact look i want..slim fit, but not tight! The second pair i received, were the Rinsed playa. I like that the color is a mix between grey and blue. I like slightly darker colors, so not a big fan of traditional blue jeans. These were a great blue substitute for me! These jeans were slightly different from the Rigid grey, in that the material is slightly thinner it feels like, and the jeans them selves are slightly more loose all around...its not really a bad thing, as i still feel it provides the look i want, but if i could order them again, i may go with the 30x30 and not the 31x30 like the rigid grey. Overall i am still very satisfied with the particular color and the feel and fit of the Rinsed playa. The last color were the black stretch, these are slightly thicker than the other two colors, but its kinda nice. the 31x30 fit just as well as the rigid grey, so no surprises, and the black is very dark and nice. The black stretch seems more consistent with the rigid grey. So overall just very satisfied with the look, feel, and fit of these jeans. Yes the Rinsed playa is slightly thinner, and the black stretch is slightly thicker, but i still feel satisfied with the look and feel these jeans provide. I do not think that the slight change in feel, is enough to not buy these jeans! I am very pleased.

Levi 511 Slim Fit Jeans, Size 33x34It is very difficult to find 33 waist, 34 inseam jeans in stores, let alone jeans that are cut in a fashionable way and affordable. Enter the Levi 511's. I have two pairs of Levi 514s, which are slim straight fit jeans. Although nice, the 514s are too baggy around the ankles in my humble opinion. The 511s looked like they would rectify this problem, and they do. Except they can be rather tight at the ankle which makes it more snug if you have big feet like me (Size US 12) and are trying to slip them through.The Midnight Oil color was hard to discern online, but in real life they are a very very very dark blue that is almost black. I liked this color because it came with a black leather patch at the back and dark grey stitching. The sizing is spot on, I always buy 1 or 2 sizes larger than my actual waist measurement because this gives me comfort room in the butt and groin area which is important for men.Overall: 5/5 stars. Great price, more modern style but definitely not ultra-tight "skinny jeans". If you desire a bit more room at the ankles, look at the 514s but the 511s are not ultra tight.UPDATE: 18 DEC 2014I bought another pair of the 511s, in 34x34. The pocket/hip area is tighter than the 514s, but the fit on the thighs and legs are much cleaner than the 514s. A friend had said the 514s looked like bootcut jeans. The newer 511s have 1% elastane or spandex, while the older 511s were 100% cotton.

If you're a skinny guy like me, go with these. I had always bought slim fit jeans that, according to description, fit just like the Levi 511 jeans. I loved them, so after a while I wondered, "Well, what ARE Levi 511 jeans?"BEFORE I decided to buy a pair online, I just so happened to hear an ad on the radio that Levi's 511 were on sale at J.C. Penny, I went in-store to try a pair on. I did this because when it comes to clothes, different brands size things differently. For example: You could wear a 32x34 for Dickies, but another brand's 32x34 may be too small or large. So I just had to check before I bought the wrong size online.These are great jeans for the guys that are skinny and don't want to wear baggy jeans, but at the same time don't want to look awkward in skinny jeans. These were, like, made for us.I wouldn't recommend getting the Express pair of 511's. They're cheaper than the rest, so I feel like the quality or perfection of them isn't as great as the others. I wouldn't chance it even though it's tempting.When washing these, always turn them inside-out. The color won't fade as easily compared to if you washed them outside-in. Wash them in cold water, and dry them on LOW heat. Anything hotter will cause them to shrink. If you're scared to dry them at all in fear that they'll shrink, then just air dry them.These are an overall great pair of jeans and I plan on buying a third pair in a couple of weeks. You'll probably never see me wearing any jeans besides Levi's ever again.
