FAQs

What does 'Original Fit' mean for the 501 jeans?

The 'Original Fit' signifies that these jeans sit at the waist, have a regular fit through the thigh, and feature a straight leg opening. They are designed for a classic, comfortable silhouette.

How should I choose my size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Levi's. It's recommended to measure your natural waist and inseam. Given that denim can shrink, some prefer to size up slightly, especially if they plan to machine dry.

Can I wear these jeans for work?

Depending on your workplace dress code, the 501 Original Jeans can be suitable for casual or business-casual environments. They pair well with a collared shirt and can be dressed up or down.

How do I care for my 501 Original Jeans to make them last?

To maximize longevity, wash them infrequently in cold water, inside out, and with similar colors. Opt for hang drying or low heat tumble drying. Avoid bleach.

What is the difference between washes like 'A Soft Spot'?

Different washes refer to the treatment applied to the denim after its initial construction. 'A Soft Spot' likely refers to a wash that gives the jeans a pre-worn, soft, and authentic look, distinguishing it from raw or darker indigo washes.

Are Levi's 501 Original Jeans made of 100% cotton?

The 501 Original Jeans are traditionally made from 100% cotton. Some variations might include a small percentage of other fibers for specific treatments or fits, but the classic model is pure cotton denim.

Troubleshooting

Jeans feel stiff or uncomfortable

This is common with new denim. Wear them regularly for extended periods, especially while sitting, to help break in the fabric. Washing them once before the first wear can also soften the denim.

Shrinkage after washing

Always follow the care instructions. Wash in cold water and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. If significant shrinkage occurs, consider trying a size up next time or looking for pre-shrunk options.

Color fading unevenly

This is a characteristic of raw or selvedge denim and often desired for a vintage look. To minimize uneven fading, wash inside out in cold water with like colors. Avoid excessive agitation.

Button fly is difficult to close

Ensure all buttons are properly aligned before fastening. With wear, the buttonholes will stretch slightly, making the fly easier to manage.
