Best Levis Jeans An Expert Guide in Levis Jeans Fits

Those eight are the ones we deem Most Notable, but there are actually about 20 different Levi's fits right now, in 2024. Here's a quick rundown of the rest.

506 Comfort Straight - A weird one, in our opinion. The fit is somewhere between a 505 and 550, but it's made with a ton of stretch. It doesn't have the crisp and hard feel we want from denim.

511 Slim - Not notable for us, because we say go skinny (510) or slim straight (513). This is in the middle, like a 513 with a tapered leg.

514 Straight - Like a 505, except Levi's gave the jean more stretch. Plus, it has a lower rise, which we think is cool if they fit tight; these don't. Weird jeans.

527 Slim Bootcut - Fucking love this style. Low-rise, slim in the seat, with a flare—these are Lenny Kravitz jeans. They felt a little too niche to put on the list.

531 Athletic Slim - This one tapers too drastically for us. We like an athletic guy rocking a wider hem.

551 Z Authentic - An ode to the first preshrunk Levi's that were released in the '60s. This is an "anti-fit" jean, similar to the 550.

559 Relaxed Straight - Like the 555, except with a bit more stretch and modern colors.

565 Loose Straight - Big pants! This is a '90s skate-park fit. No stretch, either!

568 Loose - Even baggier and made to sit a little lower. This is as roomy as Levi's gets.

569 Loose Straight - This is a modern version of the 565 and 568. It's roomy but a little more slim—not skate-park baggy. Tastefully roomy.
