- How does the 314 differ from Levi's 311?
- The 314 is a straight leg with a mid rise; the 311 is a skinny with more stretch and a closer fit from thigh to ankle. Choose the 314 for a roomier leg and the 311 for a legging-like feel.
- Does the shaping feel tight?
- The shaping comes from the stretch blend and panel rather than heavy compression. Most owners describe it as supportive, not restrictive, though it feels firmer than plain denim at first.
- Is the 314 true to size?
- Owners generally say it runs true to size in plus sizing. If you are between sizes and want a closer fit, size down; for a relaxed straight leg, stay with your usual size.
- What is the fabric blend?
- It is a cotton, polyester, viscose and spandex denim blend. The spandex gives the stretch and recovery, and the viscose softens the hand.
- How should I care for them?
- Wash cold and inside out, and line dry or tumble low. Heat breaks down spandex, and the shaping holds up longer with gentler washing.
- What is the inseam?
- This pair has a 32-inch inseam, a full-length straight leg for most heights. Shorter shoppers may need to hem them.
