For sale is a pair of Levi's® 501 Shrink to Fit Black jeans from the period of the mid to late 2000's and early 2010's period. This pair of jeans was shrunk to fit (washed), hung dry, carefully ironed inside out as well as right side out utilizing cautious technique with cloth barrier to preserve fabric and worn once to try on fit. Although the waist patch indicates that the jeans are a size 32x32, the waist actually barely shrunk measuring at 15.75" laid across or an even 31.5" measured all the way around. Where the real shrinkage took place was in the inseam, which measures at 29 3/8." Unlike the 501® Shrink to fit jeans that are sold today, these jeans were stitched with seemingly thicker thread. Another feature that makes them stand out from the 501® STF's that retail close to $80 at the present, are that the back pockets as well as the right side coin pocket are chain stitched as seen in the images. Levi's® for the most part has now done away with the chain stitching on most of its jeans to save on manufacturing costs; leaving customers with a thin single stitch; not to mention the goofy tiny hem at the leg openings that are a feature of today's 501's. This pair of 501's® looks as close to new as you can get for a pair of pre-owned jeans as the texture has a nice rugged rigid feel as would be expected. Why purchase a brand new pair of 501® Shrink to Fit jeans and go through all the work (and guess work) of getting them sized right through washing and fitting when the work has already been done for you? Be the talk of the town by owning this pair of  Levi's® jeans that has the classic feel and look of quality that the 501® line was always known for in the past.
