About the Levi's 501 Original Jeans

The 501 Original is Levi's archetypal straight-leg jean: mid-to-high rise, button fly, five pockets, and a 16-inch leg opening that sits over boots or sneakers. The 14.21 oz all-cotton denim is heavy and rigid at first, then molds to the wearer over months. It suits people who want a classic, hard-wearing jean rather than stretch comfort. Rivals like the 505 offer a zipper fly and softer hand; the 501 is the stiffer, more traditional cut.

    Questions and answers

    How does the 501 Original fit compared with the 505?
    The 501 has a slightly higher rise and a button fly; the 505 sits a bit lower and uses a zipper. Both are straight legs, but the 501 is the roomier, more traditional cut.
    Will these jeans shrink after washing?
    The all-cotton denim can shrink, especially in the length, after a hot wash and dry. Wash cold and line dry to keep the fit close to what you bought.
    Are the 501 Originals rigid or stretchy?
    This version is 100% cotton with no stretch. It feels stiff when new and breaks in over time; if you want give from day one, look at a stretch 501 variant.
    What is the leg opening and rise?
    The front rise is 11 1/4 inches and the leg opening is 16 inches, a straight leg that clears most boots and sneakers.
    Do they run true to size?
    Most buyers take their usual waist size, but the rigid fabric leaves little room for error. Try your normal size first and size up only if you are between sizes.
