Levis 517

[DrinDrin]

Hey, guys.

I'm new to the raw denim thing.

I'm breaking in some Ruslter jeans right now.

But around winter, I wnat to start on a new pair. While still breakin in my ruslters.

I don't want the 501 STF, cause its not real dark indigo.

I was browsing around the sheplers website and I found these.

Anyone have experience with these?

Levi 517 Rigid.

They look preety good, and the indigo is real dark. and cheaper than the the 501s lol.

Its either that r some rigid wranglers from walmart. for 20 dollars.

I say go for it. I'm a big fan of Levi's. Just got some Premium Skinner Rigids. What I don't like about the 517 is it's still the high rise and the fly's zippered instead of button. Just my preference.

I'd definitely go with the 517s over the Rustlers. For $30 thats pretty good looking denim.

Ang, where did you get your Premium Skinner Rigids? I've been meaning to cop a pair for awhile, but don't know where to find them anymore.

Kewan, there's a number of them at Loehmann's here in NY. Pretty small sizes though. 32 was the largest, and these run small. There's a guy selling them on the supermarket, but last time I asked him, he never got back to me, it's for cheaper than where I got them though. I think ktothe also sells them check supermarket and search under levi or skinner.

Lemme know how it turns out.
