The original straight-leg jean, unchanged since 1873 — 100% cotton with copper rivet reinforcements and a stonewash finish that feels broken-in from the first wear. One of the few clothing gifts with a size range wide enough to actually get right.
The Levi's 501 is the original straight-leg jean, first introduced in 1873. Made from 100% cotton with a classic button fly, copper rivet reinforcements at stress points, and a straight leg that sits at the waist and runs the same width from knee to hem. The stonewash finish softens the cotton from the first wear — Levi's recommends cold water machine wash to preserve the colour and fit.
