Close your eyes. Think "jeans." Now open. They were 501® Originals, right? With a classic straight leg and iconic styling, they're literally the blueprint for every pair of jeans in existence;burned into the world's collective cortex ever since Levi Strauss (the man himself!) introduced them in 1873. To this day they've never gone out of style. And they never will. This pair is crafted with rigid denim and comes unwashed for a heritage look and feel. The original blue jeans Our signature straight fit A blank canvas for customization and self-expression Crafted with premium selvedge denim These jeans are made with Shrink-to-Fit™ denim, which means they'll shrink roughly two inches in the waist and two inches in the length if washed, so buy two sizes up in each. And for purists who prefer their denim unwashed, go ahead and buy these true to size.
