- How does the 550 fit compared with the 501?
- The 550 is fuller through the seat and thigh than the 501 and tapers below the knee. The 501 is straighter and sits closer to the body.
- Is the Rinse Stretch version very stretchy?
- No. It is mostly cotton with a small amount of elastane, so it gives a little at the waist and thigh but still feels like denim.
- Should I size up or down?
- Most buyers take their usual waist, but sizing varies between washes. If you are between sizes or want a looser seat, size up.
- What is the leg opening like?
- It is tapered, so the opening is narrower than a straight or boot-cut jean. It works best over low-profile shoes and sneakers.
- How should I care for them?
- Wash cold inside out and tumble dry low. Heat speeds up fading and shrinkage, and stretch pairs hold their shape better with less frequent washing.
- What is in the box?
- One pair of Levi's 550 jeans. No belt or other accessories are included.
- Where is the Levi's Men's 550 Relaxed-fit Jean, Rinse Stretch Stretch, 36X33 cheapest?
- At JCPenney, for $52.46, as of our latest check.
