Little tighter and longer than I recall

They fit well and are true to size

I ordered two pairs of 34 x 30 501 jeans, based on the 'true to size' statement on the website. I washed them once in lukewarm water and then hung to dry. They're way too tight at the waist for me. When I compare the waist with an old pair of 550s that are 34 x 32 the waist is about 3 inches shorter. Pretty mad about this as I will now have to donate them to a thrift shop. I added a photo so you can see the old 550s and the new 501s, both nominally the same waist size, but the new 501s are tiny compared to the old jeans.

Like them but a little too stiff

Nice fit

Very satisfied

Whoever is in charge of changing the the quality of material for 501s, has dropped the ball and lost a lot of good loyal customers. These don't feel or last anything like they used to be. Terrible!

Ordered 4 pairs of original 501 STF rigid jeans online. Every single pair has both leg seams rotated nearly 45 degrees at the cuffs. Before even any washing or uneven shrinkage. I'm having to return them all. This has been a growing problem with these jeans for years, but this is beyond anything acceptable. Clearly Levi doesn't care about the reputation of their flagship product. I've been a loyal 501 customer for close to 40 years. No more.
