these 1937's legit?

[scoon0224]

I've been looking at these.

Which season did LVC do the 37 deadstock?

I haven't been in a pair of 501's in years. How are the 37's proportioned? (rise, thigh, knee, hem)

Yes, these look legit. I'm only guessing, but I think they might be from 2005, because I was told that this year's production was relatively undersized, as this pair seems to be.

It's hard to describe how they fit without comparing them to another 501! I've worn a distressed pair of these, and would very roughly descibe them as half way between the classic full 1933 shape, and the slimmer 1947 shape. Why don't you email the seller and ask him to send the the dimensions of the rise etc? Do you want them low-ish, or tight? pre-war Levi's tend to be baggier than postwar ones, with a looser leg, but a lot of that is definted by their actualt sizing - for instance, LVC sizes its 1947 501s smaller than its 1933 501.
