FAQs
How should I size these jeans?
Expect a very tight fit initially. For a slimmer fit, try one size down; for a less loose fit, consider the standard 501 Original.
Do these jeans have stretch?
No, these are crafted from rigid denim, which provides a classic feel and will loosen over time rather than stretching back like elastane-blend jeans.
Is the red tab always the same?
No, Levi's tabs can vary in color or lettering, but all are considered authentic Levi's products.
Are these environmentally friendly?
Yes, this garment is made using recycled water to reduce the impact on finite water resources.
Can I put these in the dryer?
It is recommended to air dry your jeans to prevent unnecessary shrinkage and to keep the denim fibers in the best condition.
Troubleshooting
Jeans feel too tight in the waist upon first wear
The 501 90's are designed to loosen over time. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the rigid denim to naturally conform to your body.
The fit feels too loose after a few months
Since the denim does not stretch back, avoid over-stretching the fabric when wet. If the fit becomes too loose, a hot wash may tighten them slightly, though this is not guaranteed for all denim types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Levi's 501 90's Jeans maintain their quality, start by choosing the right size; if you prefer a slimmer fit, consider sizing down from your usual measurement, or opt for the 501 Original if you desire a less loose overall structure. Because they are made of rigid cotton denim, wash them sparingly in cold water and hang to dry to preserve the integrity of the fibers and the color. Avoid aggressive heat drying, which can cause unnecessary shrinkage. As these are vintage-inspired, the denim is durable but benefits from occasional airings out rather than frequent machine washing.
