A very attractive looking jean with a very nice fit... in the dressing room that is. After just a few hours of wearing they were completely stretched out! I've tried shrinking them, but the amount of stretch in the waist especially has rendered them unwearable without a belt. Even then there is so much extra fabric bunching up it is uncomfortable.

What I do like is the length. I'm 5'5" with very long legs. Regular length jeans are often too short and talls are way too long. These are just right.

If you do purchase these, buy 2-3 sizes down (the size runs large anyway) and don't fret if they feel ultra tight. That will soon change! Oh, a number of reveiwers have commented about these not "feeling" like authentic Levis. It's true, these are made of a thin denim. They wear more like slacks.

This style for some reason is difficult to find in stores that sell Levi's so I was impressed to get these at a good price. Free shipping also adds to the great value...will probably purchase again.

Just ordered these in West Coast the other day and they arrived today and I've been now wearing them for about 6 hours.

They are perfectly comfortable and look great. I got the 6S and find they are very true to size the length is just fine. (I was worried bc so many other reviewers said the material was flimsy and the size and length weren't right.)

Also, one reviewer said they fit until you've worn them a few hours and then they stretch completely out of shape. I can tell you this has not happened for me. I guess it's the 1% spandex that has helped them keep their shape. I'm very happy with the way they look on me.

FYI--the description said these are a button fly closure but it's actually zipper fly.

I was looking to replace my black straight-leg 505s that I got last year. Thought I was ordering the same thing. But actually the pair that came, although they were labeled straight-leg 505s had detailing on the pockets (which was frayed when it arrived and had to be returned) . This was the first disappointment. The second was that the fabric was not the same composition as the old levis (which were 98% cotton 2% spandex) the new ones are 75% cotton, 24% spandex, and 1% elastine (??). These pants are a lint magnet! Not what I thought I was ordering. In fact, it is very deceptive because the item that is shown does NOT show the detailing on the pocket and lists the fabric as 98% cotton/2% spandex. Buyer Beware.

I bought a pair of these jeans directly from Levi's.com and love them. They are a perfect fit, perfect length for my 5"9 curvy figure. I ordered another pair, this time from Amazon since it was a better price. I received the pair from Amazon and knew right away they were too short. When I compared them to the ones from Levis.com there was a difference of about 2 inches, they barely skimmed the top of my foot. I was really dissapointed and ended up returning them. I then ordered a 2nd pair from Levi's.com and bought a 3rd pr from Kohl's,those were like the first pair, perfect in everyway. I'm not sure if the jeans from Amazon come from a different supplier or if I just ended up with a mis-sized pair but I won't be ordering the jeans from Amazon in the future.

I love these jeans. They aren't too tight nor too loose. They fit perfectly and are very comfortable. Levi jeans have always been a favorite of mine and the 505's are one of my favorites.

The style of these jeans is a thrill for me! They have a slimming effect going on and make my legs look longer, and I really like the cut and weight of them. No embarrassing "show your butt" when I bend down or squat. I also like the fit for wearing with a boot or heels. Sitting is not torturous either.

The length of the 'short' jeans is 32".

This is the 5th (4 with one order) pair of this cut of Levi's that I've purchased. Out of the 5 pairs-1 pair actually fit. The other 4 varied in length, waist measurement, rise, etc. I had washed the 2nd pair of one color assuming that, since they were the same fabric and size they would fit the same-they did not. There is a 1.5" difference in length; a 1" difference in the waist; and almost 2" difference in the hip.

This were a size too big and the material did not feel like real denim. I returned these and ordered from another site.

I love these jeans they are so comfortable and they mold to the shape of your body. They also move with you if you purchase these jeans I am sure that they will be the only brand and style you will ever want to wear. wonderful fit long lasting and long wearing. Well worth the price. When I buy store brand jeans they are cut so small that it makes it hard to determan the size I need. But not with these Levis you can just choose the size you normely wear. There's not many jean companies that I have found are able to do that. Awesome product!
