Product Description

A modern slim with room to move, the 511 slim fit jeans are a classic since right now. These jeans sit below the waist with a slim fit through the hip and thigh and a slim leg. This pair was made using premium denim with next-generation stretch for maximum comfort and recovery to keep their shape. Cut close to the body, the 511 is a great alternative to the skinny jean - you'll get the same lean look with added comfort. The narrow leg also means endless style options. For a laidback, daytime look, try a slightly scrunched leg and sneakers. Once night rolls around, try a 2-inch cuff with a chelsea boot.

Love these jeans, buy them!

Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2015

Verified Purchase

These were the first pair of "skinny" jeans I ever bought. I used to wear straight leg jeans but decided to jump headlong into this new style. I never tried a pair of these jeans on before so I ordered what I thought was my size, 34x32. Once they arrived I pulled them on, literally. I never had to struggle to put on a pair of jeans so it was quite the experience. Once they were on I didn't want to take them off. They were tight, understandably, but fit well and looked mighty good. They've become very comfortable over time. I'm not fat nor am I thin but my legs are a bit skinny despite the fact that I run semi-regularly but these jeans fit my body frame well. I suspect they'll look good on anyone willing to slip into them. Because of that one pair I went ahead and bought three more that same weekend. I will say not all of the jeans are of the same material. Some are more giving than others and some of the materials are softer; one thing is constant, they look good. If you're on the fence I'd tell you to jump off it and into these jeans. My girlfriend loved them...they actually helped me woo her at the time I was courting her. So just pick your size and order. It's easy to return if they're not the right fit but you might regret not trying them out.

Terrific combo of fit and lower leg taper - Size comparisons for most Levi models inside

Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2016

Verified Purchase

I love this cut of jeans...if you are a guy that has well a typical guys body then these are terrific. I have these in size 40x30 and provides a great balance between the 511 and 501. I like that it sits below my gut without having the dreaded crotch sag that the 501 will do if you pants do not stay up...they taper is perfect for men..if you want to be a 140lb country male candybutt singer then these are not for you. You still like like a man wearing these and not some dude trying to look cool going to a yoga class.

The only downside is that the back can seem a little low...I believe that is a product of my love handles and forcing them down however a little more rise in the back would be welcome.

Again I can not comment how these will fit thinner people but for a 6ft 250lb guy these are great.
Size references I wear:
501 Shrink to Fit 42x32
501 40x30
502 40x30
505 40x30
508 42x30
511 42x30(terrific fitting and not too slim in 42x30 but in 40x30 they are like skinny jeans...and I look like a muffin in them)
514 42x30
The thing with Levi's as we all know is no two pair of the same model and size fit the same- also always pay attention to if it is 100% cotton or not

Heads up! Fit varries by style/color

Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2014

Verified Purchase

In general, I like this style of pants and the quality and the price, etc. etc. I'm not super happy with my purchase, but this was totally my bad, so still 5 stars.
I bought a pair of 511s at Urban outfitters and loved them, so I decided to get a pair off Amazon (which is about half the cost of buying them at Urban Outfitters, without the hassle of cool, fashionable, in shape kids whose presence makes you suffer the realization that you have much less hair and much more gut than you did in the early 2000s). I bought the "Rigid Dragon" (sounds like the title of a Skyrim themed porn?) thinking that was the same style/color that I bought at the store. Turns out, it wasn't, and this color has 1% spandex (vs. the 2% in my other pants), and is therefore less yielding to my aforementioned declining physique. In hindsight, I think the color I bought at the store was "Rinsed Playa" (sounds like the title of a failed Outkast song). That being said, I do like the rigid dragon style: the fabric is stiffer and more durable, and it's a REALLY dark blue, which I dig. I just wish I would have gone a size larger so I wouldn't have to struggle to roll them over my shapely man-calves or fit them over my boots. Also, less junk-crushing would be good.
So anyway, my point is that even if you are buying the same cut and size of these jeans, they will probably fit differently. The fabric composition of each color is on the description, so make sure you check it out.

Good jeans, sizing not quite right

Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2016

Verified Purchase

So I ordered a pair of these Levi 511s as well as a pair of Lee Modern Series Slim Fit Straight Leg jeans, both in size 32x32. The quality of both pairs of jeans are comparable, but these 511s didn't fit quite like I expected around the waist. Nearly every well fitting pair of pants I own are size 32x32 and I can usually just grab that size and have no issues, but that didn't work here.

I do understand that these are slim fit and that the Lee's are slim straight legged (more comparable to the Levi 513s), but it wasn't the legs that didn't fit, it's that these 511s were uncomfortable tight around the waist. I've worn skinny jeans before, and even if they are tight on the legs, they should still fit on the waist.

Since I really liked the way the Lee's fit, I ended up returning these Levi's and getting a second pair of the Lee's in a different color. Plus, they're also cheaper.

Besides the issue of not quite fitting as I would expect, there was nothing wrong with the jeans. The material seemed comfortable, the stitching looked good and strong, and they look really nice.

MISLEADING AND CONFUSING

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2014

Verified Purchase

Amazon has advertised more than 10-14 jeans in the same link , some stretch some non, while info on some are given , its not very clear , and its NOT explained for all jeans , this is causing confusion as to the amount of stretch if at all in a particular jeans , sending it back from Bombay is inconvenient , considering i have made more than 150 odd purchases in the last 10-18 months , this is the first time I have felt misled .

Die Hose sitzt gut, das Mareial ist super, die Farbe sehr schön - es gibt nichts zu meckern. Einzig, ich habe nicht wissentlich zwei bestellt, aber zwei geliefert und berechnet bekommen. Ich werde beide behalten, weil die Hose wirklich gut ist. Ich mag mich auch vertan haben, das ist vermutlich die wahrscheinlichste Erklärung. Allerdings würde mich durchaus interessieren, ob das auch anderen passiert ist.
