What are the best Levi's models?
Because my grandmother is the kindest woman in the world and believes Levi's is still relevant she wants me to buy a pair for my birthday. Since I love her and don't want to disappoint her I'm going to do that, but so far I really don't like any of their models. Is there one I don't know about? 501 is too wide and 511 are skinny jeans garbage

501T I believe has a nice taper
512 is roomier in the thighs but with a nice taper as well. I think the leg opening is 12.75 go with either of these

Slim fit is a codeword for skinny jeans you moron. They just call them that because fashion victims no longer think skinny is cool and instead all want slim fit.
I have two pairs of 511s in my closet and I'm never going to wear those again unless I'm going to a 2013 themed party

Thanks you. I had no idea they tapered their straight models. Great

514s are kind of an in-between.

What's your body type? Maybe you can get some shrink to fit 501s or some contemporary tapers (502, 512) from Made and Crafted. Levi's Vintage Clothing has some cool rehashes of old cuts as well. Maybe your grandmother would like those on you.

Skinny is skinny, slim is slim. If you cant fit into slim jeans you're a fat fuck. lose some weight.

>What's your body type?
I'm a cyclist and football player who's about as tall as wide. I have monster legs. My favorite jeans are mainly tapered normal fit ones.
Also she doesn't care what kind of fit they have, she just genuinely believes having Levi's label on my clothing will make the girls go wild. I'm not even 16 or something, I'm turning 25.

513 and 514 are a skinnier fit without being skinny jeans . 513 are slim fit and 514 are regular fit
if you have larger thighs and a smaller waist try 541

Skinny jeans and 'totally not skinny' slim fit jeans both are made of the same 98-2 elastane mixture. You're an idiot if you don't think they just rebranded their pileup of skinny jeans into slim fit so they can sell them to fashionistas who think they're clever for no longer buying skinny.

How is this fucking possible. If you select the 'non-stretch' option on their website from the 157 items only 58(!) remain

Are we still in 2014?

501s might actually be a good bet if you have big legs! For a taper, try a 502 or 541 though I don't think 541s are available on the EU site.

If you can, get a selvedge pair or a pair made of a cool, stubby denim. At least it won't look like the same pair of Levis everyone else is wearing, if that's what you're worried about


>>14664580
501s are original but there are lots of different iterations (e.g. slim, tapered, boyfriend cut).

Actually it's okay thanks for the tips. There's a Levi's store in town I suppose I just go there and see what they got.

502 is literally the most perfect compromise between the 501s and 511s

Came here to post this. 502's are great. The rise isn't as high as I like but you can find them at about any big box clothing store. You can also find them on sale all over the place.

Why did it take Levis until the year of our lord 2019 to come up with an organic jean fit?
