## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi dear supplier, Just one question: Be honest please, Is it made in Mexico or Colombia? thank you.**
A: Levi’s has manufacturing facilities all around the world. I used to know the woman in charge for their supply chain. When I mentioned that the jeans in Mexico are consistent but I’ve had to return 501’s from other countries, she did say that was true. This was 15 years ago so I would hope things have changed. I still only buy the ones from Mexico…

**Q: what is the number of the same jeans with a zip fly**
A: The 501 button fly Jean does not duplicate their fit with a zipper. Many say the 505 is the same with a zipper. Not true. Why Levi's doesn't produce the same fit with a zipper has always stumped me. The 501 button fly is one of the best fitting jeans on the market.  To have the same exact fit with a zipper would be awesome. I hate fighting those buttons.

**Q: Are they durable?**
A: A few years ago... extremely durable and thick! Have had some of the same pairs working on farm and being truck driver for 6 or so years....

Now they're much thinner and not as rigid, but depends what your doing... casual everyday yes... blue collar work no

**Q: what is the difference between fit of 517 and 527?**
A: 517 are wider all around. Thighs are similar to a straight cut. Lower calf area flares wider, easily fits over larger or heavily padded boots. 527 are slim at the thighs and slightly flare out. Can fit over some high top sneakers, but not really over winter boots or similar heavily padded boots.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Real Levi's 501 Quality. Still the Best Value and Personal Fit in denim.
*by S***H on March 27, 2023*

These are REAL Levi's 501s. I don't know what all the griping is about from the highest viewed review dated 2020. It's 2023 people. These 501s are coming direct from Levi Strauss & Co. through Amazon. They aren't knock offs, fakes, or counterfeit 501s. I got mine and they have all the button stamps ink stamps, and codes that Levi's have always had through the years. I've been wearing Levis for 50+ years, so I have a little experience. I've tried all the other jean brands, and even the high end jeans, and even the brands inspired by Levi's, and still keep coming back to Levi's 501 STF. The 501 STF is still the benchmark for rugged denim that shrinks to perfectly fit your body. I'm 5'11 185 lbs. I order W35 L36. After FOLLOWing THE INSTRUCTIONS - wear them in the tub on a hot day, then go out and do some ranch or yard work. Let them dry and shrink to fit your body. After a few wear and cold washing cycles, they shrink down to W34 L32-33 depending on how warm you dry 'em. They'll still fit over western boots, too. If you like your denim stiff and raw, order your actual size. Although, I've yet to meet someone who actually does this. Seems that it would be a little uncomfortable.Some reviewers say they aren't the same 501 as they were decades ago. Question for them...What these days is the same as it was decades ago? I can't think of much, including myself.And what's all the griping about where they're made? Yeah-Yeah, I'd love for them to still be made in the good 'ol USA, by USA workers, but that's not in the cards these days. Thank politicians and trade deals for that. The pairs I ordered were made in Egypt. I was curious, so I searched this out. Have you seen the online videos of this state of the art manufacturing facility? It's pretty impressive - with what appears to be modern equipment and high tech, good quality processes in place to ensure consistency. And what's not to love about Egyptian cotton? The 501's I have that are a few years old are now thick and soft - the product of washing them inside out and drying properly. This also ensures uniform fading of the denim so they will look great too.Bottom Line, if you want a pair of jeans that will fit you perfectly, and last years, I recommend going with the 501 Shrink to Fit (STF). If you don't want to invest the time to break them in and have a pair of jeans that fit you perfectly, you can buy the already pre-shrunk 501 versions. If the buttons bug you, go with the zippered 505s. The 505 is supposedly the same as the 501 but with a zipper. Although, I don't believe Levi's makes 505s in a STF version anymore.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good
*by H***H on May 7, 2025*

These are really good pants, but are undersized on the waist. I had to buy 2 sizes bigger on the waist. The inseam length is spot on. These are very comfortable to wear. The pockets are deep. The material is durable yet not stiff. Just be aware of the small waist issue and order accordingly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fit as described
*by M***N on July 23, 2025*

I've worn 501's since I was in middle school. These seem to be of okay quality, hopefully the become a bit more comfortable when they are broken in.
