505 regular

does anyone know the difference between Levi's 512 (Slim), 514 (slim straight) and 516 (Slim)?

I know that 512s leg is tapered, while 514s one is straight, but i don't have any information about 516..

thankyou!

hi everyone! i'd like to buy a basic cheap rigid 501XX. Presently my levi's "preshrunk" size is:

W 27 or 28

L 30 (or less).

am i right if i buy a 29x30?

and which is the best way to shrink a NOT '47 501XX ?

1) wearing them for months and then dipping in very hot water in the bathtube while wearing them

2) wearing for months and then dipping in very hot water in the bathtube while wearing them for many others months/years

3) dipping immediatelty in very hot water wearing them

4) wearing for months and then soaking in whashing machine at highest temperature for 1 h and after that repeating immediately this operation for 2 or 3 times

5) soaking immediatelty in whashing machine at highest temperature for 1 h and then repeat this operation for many others months/years

please help me!! thank you very much!

If you guys get a chance to lay out the new global 501 cut next to a pair of LVC 1947 501's the similarities are impeccable. I had a chance to do this with a washed pair of 2008 501's and deadstock pair of 1947 501's, both in the same size. The leg shape was exact, not a centimeter off. The only difference I could note was that the 2008 501 was a half inch shorter in rise than the 1947 501. Pocket placement was exact. I also tried both on and could barely tell a difference in cut.

The new fabrics being used (in the US at least) are all Cone Mills denim, to boot! The new fabric they developed is aptly named "global blues," and feels soft, sturdy, and nubbly.

can you post any picture?

hi everyone!

i open a new thread beacouse i think that this problem could interest many people:

i recently bought a pair of Levi's 505 regular fit (size 30x30 made in Bangladesh):

the waist is ok, but i noticed that the thight is too much loose for a regular and straight cut like the Levi's 505 one...

at the end i can't use them because they are ridiculous!!!

and i don't know if i can solve the problem buying a smaller size like 28x30..:confused:

i thought that the 16 3/4'' leg opening could influence the aspect ratio of the leg.. is it possible?

anyway: Levi's should examine and repair the project, making the cut slimmer and straight, like it was in the early 1990's!!!!

sorry if I open an old post, but i saw them today and i need some information about

are you sure they're STF?

in the label we can see: Lot 501 (without "XX" that indicate shrink to fit denim)

are they 11 or 12 oz?

very good.

i think 13.5 or 13.75 oz.

regular fit, sits at waist, straight leg..

they're very durable

a good long-life Lvc!
