The Levi's 501 Shrink-to-Fit is the original 501 in raw, unsanforized 100% cotton denim that shrinks about 10% when washed. It has a regular fit through the thigh, sits at the waist, and has a straight leg with a button fly and five pockets. It is for shoppers who want stiff, honest denim that molds to the body over time, not for anyone who wants a soft, stretchy jean out of the bag. Against stretch 501s and most modern jeans, it demands sizing care and a break-in period, but owners say the result is a personal fit and fades that softer denim cannot match.

Owners treat the 501 Shrink-to-Fit as a project jean: stiff at first, then molded to the body after soaking or washing. Most praise the fabric, the fades and the classic cut; the common complaints are the sizing guesswork and the break-in discomfort.

• To find the right size for Shrink-to-Fit™ jeans, there are three options.
• 1) For the old-school technique, buy true to size in the waist and two sizes up in length. Wear them in the tub and keep them on to dry.
2) For those who want to machine wash and dry the jeans, we recommend ordering up: For your waist, increase 1" for sizes 27"-36", 2" for 38"-48", and 3" for 50" and up. And for your inseam, increase 3" for sizes 27"-34" and 4" for 36" and up.
• 3) For purists who like their denim unwashed, no need to size up. Buy them true to size.
