Customer Reviews Levi's® Mens 501® Original

Personally, I think the 501 cut is the best Levi's cut. The wash I picked goes well with pretty much everything! As usual, Zappos rules in terms of shipping time and charges! Keep up the good work!

Best jeans, hands down, end of story, goodnight, take care, period. Perfect fit, perfect look, cheap. AMAZING!

I bought the shrink to fit jean for the first time. I normally wear a 31 inch waist and 28-29 inch inseam. I went up just one inch in the waist and 2-3 in the inseam (32x32). I soaked them for 1 hour in a tub of hot water and allowed them to fully dry. The waist was perfect but the inseam was a little long. The finished product fits well right now...just may have to hem them an inch or two. Looking forward to breaking these in over the next few months.

The order process was simple, delivery was prompt and the whole prosess was easey. The product was displayed with accuracy. The one fault I found is that the materials did not state that there was a button fly on the Levi Originals. That was just fine with me but others might want to know this fact in advance.

Zappos was the most amazing supplier I have ever encountered. The jeans I ordered (which were for a friend in London who had asked for them at the very last minute) were delivered the next day, as promised, even though I ordered them on a Sunday afternoon and the best part of all was that the shipping was free. The cost of the jeans was fantastically reasonable and in future, I shall be buying all internet jeans from Zappos and no other supplier. Thank you, Zappos!

I searched many stores over the summer for white jeans and zappos was the only one who had what i wanted in stock. I was impressed on what i could find on this site.

Excellent product, well made, great fit and looks excellent. Can't say enough about Zappos. Had my order in my hand the next day. Fast, friendly, great price. Excellent return policy and a much better selection of both colors and styles then in a retail department store. Zappos rocks.

I want to start off by saying Zappos is great. I needed an exchange in size and they sent it out, and my order came today and it wasn't suppose to come until tomorrow! Wow, OK the jeans are comfortable, very stylish feel great. I purchase the 'black shrink to fit' and I love the material, there going to look great this fall, purchase them today don't wait!

Zappos is the only place I could find Levi's with a 35 inch waist for my husband. I ordered one day and they came the next. It was cheaper then driving to the mall and a lot easier. I will order from them from now on!

I love the 501 Originals! Great fit, comfortable, and great color choices!

I'm tall and these jeans fit perfectly. Levis are a classic brand and a great value.

Everyone who has a teen age son needs to shop Zappos! My son's Levi size (29 X 32) is not available in stores anywhere near our home. With Zappos he can choose styles and colors he likes on line, have them the next day! And if they aren't the color or fit he expected, send them back without penalty. I will not buy his jeans any other way. You have saved us both endless frustration, stress and discontent. Thank you so much!

For years been wearing the 505's, I guess I forgot just how well the 501's really fit well, and the white for summer is great.

I bought these for my husband and he loved them. They are great quality jeans for the price as well as great service from Zappos.

Great pair of Levi's. Well made, rugged. Just like they used to be! Fantastic service from Zappos, next day delivery as promised, even out to the boonies on So. Oregon coast.

Zappos is a first rate operation. I am fortunate that I am able to shop online where some people need to try stuff on. But on that rare occasion if something needs returned it is nice to know I can do so without question.

I bought two pairs of the Originals at Zappos. A pair of the stonewash and a pair of black ones. They were difficult to find as far as looking for the Originals. A few other places had only limited sizes and colors, but more expensive than what I paid at Zappos. I did not want any of the other styles of the Levi's line, I wanted this specific design. So not finding them easily was frustrating. With the sale price I was able to get a good deal. The overnight shipping capped it all off. It is always a pleasure to shop at Zappos. I have had only positive experiences at their site.

I have never dealt with a fast and focused company as Zappos. I ordered and it seems like it came in a hour. Product is great just as the jeans in the store.

I searched everywhere for a pair of white 501's with no luck. Zappos is the ONLY place that had them. VERY reasonable price and VERY fast shipping.

I am very happy with my Levis and with Zappos. Zappos is a great place to buy your clothing.

My pre-shrunk size is 34x30. Ordered STF in 35x33, soaked in hot water for 40 minutes, dried completely in hot dryer. Repeated this process twice. Fit is now perfect in waist and length. Didn't do the whole wear them wet thing. FYI - a cup of white vinegar will keep the color nice and dark. Customer Service Comment: Returned two other pairs (ordered different sizes) by printing Zappos free UPS return label, and dropping them off at a UPS store. Used the same Zappos box they were shipped in. The UPS person even taped the box shut and put the label on for me...easy-peasy. Thanks, Zappos!

These are, in my humble opinion, the best jeans out there if you are looking for classic style and terrific custom fit. I ordered them 1" bigger in the waist and 2" longer in the inseam to allow for shrinkage. Marinated them in hot bath water (don't try this while wearing them - you could get burned), hung them to drip dry a bit, then wore them in the sun and as they dry, you can feel them shaping themselves to you. The price is right, and yeah, the denim probably was better 20 or 30 years ago, but guess what? It's 2011 -- deal with it!

The jeans fit well (true to size) and were a color that I hadn’t run across in the department stores.

As with all original Levi jeans they are pretty true to size once they are washed. Like most jeans, they tend to shrink a little with washing but stretch right back out. They only get better with age!

My husband's favorite jeans since high school. Didn't need "blue"...likes the variety available. Received jeans the next day...amazing service!
