- How does the 318 compare with Levi's 501 wide leg?
- The 318 has stretch and a shaping panel, so it fits closer at the waist and hip. The 501 is rigid, 100% cotton denim with a straighter, stiffer fall.
- Is the denim stretchy?
- Yes. It is a stretch cotton denim with a shaping construction. Expect give at the waist and thigh, and some relaxation over a day of wear.
- What rise is it?
- It is a mid rise, sitting below the navel rather than at the natural waist like Levi's high-rise cuts.
- Will the length need hemming?
- Many shoppers report the inseam runs long, so shorter wearers often hem them or cuff them.
- How should I care for them?
- The care instructions call for tumble drying. Washing cold and air drying helps stretch denim keep its shape longer.
- Who is the 318 made for?
- Shoppers who want a wide leg with a held-in waist and stretch comfort, rather than a rigid, structured wide-leg jean.
