Great looking pants where there is an actual taper
ERIC MAITREJEAN –
Excellent fit and fabric, but zipper broke after 2 days. Tailor who fixed it told me not “real” Levi’s since neither zip not studs have Levi’s logo. Zipper looked flimsy from the beginning. Not what I expected from that order…

These are the best-fitting jeans I have ever found! They’re made of medium-weight fabric with a nice stretch, making them very comfortable to wear. I love that they are not baggy in the back upper thighs and around the lower legs. These are the places I always have a problem with when buying pants. Unfortunately, these jeans are getting very hard to locate and the price seems to be going up. It sounds like Levi’s is in the process of discontinuing this line. Amazon is not restocking sizes that they run out of.

Great fit. Comfortable.

I like wearing men’s jeans since they have larger pockets, usually fit pretty well if you find the right pair, and the sizing is very precise (WxL shouldn’t have vanity sizing issues!). I just ordered two pairs of the 502s in my usual 30×30 size, after trying them on in a store (where they did fit). The Rosefinch were way too tight – I couldn’t even button them up, while the Come Closer are snug but at least more or less fit. Seems the Rosefinch are manufactured in Bangladesh and 98% cotton/2% elastane, while the Come Closer are manufactured in Vietnam and 99% cotton/1% elastane. I assumed the same line of jeans in the same brand would be consistent, but it seems Levi’s has some quality control/consistency issues in the sizing. Side note: I have Levi’s 30″ shorts and American Eagle 30×30 jeans and those all fit comfortably, so both 30×30 502’s run a bit small.
I can’t speak to the longevity since I just got them, and will need to return one or both.

Eine perfekte Levi’s aus den Staaten. Die Farbe wird auf dem Kontinent von Levi’s nicht verkauft. Der Preis ist deutlich niedriger als bei von Levi’s in Deutschland vertrieben Hosen dieser Marke. Die Größe passt exakt.

Très déçu taille très grand et le retour n’est pas remboursé et de plus la totalité n’est pas remboursé de votre colis

Levi’s can be inconsistent, especially around the legs, but these 502s (having purchased three) seem to be quite consistent in fit, wash, and taper. I typically wear Joe’s Jeans (Brixton) – these 502s fit similar and are 75% cheaper!
The key thing to keep in mind with the 502 is that it is meant to ride below the waist – so depending on the length of your torso, I recommend ordering two sizes (your actual and one size up).

The 502 Levis are my favorite style. The fit is perfect for me. They are durable and comfortable. They don’t fade very quickly.
Amazon Customer –
Durable,well fit.
Jonathan Arenivar –
Levi’s are always so reliable and worth the extra money as they are durable and long lasting. Once you find your pant and size, it is great to come here and order in other colors.
Jim Smith –
I was unable to find the Levis I wanted anywhere in stores locally so I ordered them on line.
They arrived only one day late due to terrible winter weather here.
They fit just right!

Perfect fit, color,and denim thickness. You will need a lint brush. Had these 10 days and they get lint build up

Nice jeans, they look good and are a high quality pair. Nice color and classic look. If you’re worried that these will be baggy or square looking like the 501’s, fear not. However they are (obviously) not as slim fitting as the 511 and 512’s which is no surprise.
My big issue: the waist is way too large for the size I order. I typically wear a 30in waist in almost everything. So i tried the slim fit 511’s with a 30-inch waist, and they were so tight i couldn’t pull them all the way up.
Not wanting to wear painted-on jeans, i decided to try these tapered fit jeans. They’re much looser and more comfortable, they look good, modern styling and comfortable for those with muscular thighs.
However, I’m disappointed because the 31-inch waist is seriously large. I would estimate the 31’s fit me like a pair of 33 or 34 inch jeans would in other brands. So i’m constantly pulling them up when i wear them.
i regret not returning them after i bought them, but i needed them quickly before a trip and crossed my fingers that they’d shrink up in the wash. Not so much.
The elastic waist is great but the sizing is so hard to judge. I would recommend ordering a couple different sizes to see what works best, then return the ones that don’t fit. Hindsight is 20-20, and now i can’t find this wash in a 30 or 29-inch waist so i’m stuck. Poor me…

I’ve been looking for “moisture wicking” Levi’s 505s for over 15 years, after I found myself working in Spring monsoon season in Asia. All I found at the time was old man travel pants and some baggy skater jeans. I had to replenish my supply of 505s, and while poking around the Levi’s website, found out about the All Seasons Tech fabric. It is not described as “moisture wicking”, but described as more breathable in hot weather. But this fabric is only available in a few cuts / model numbers, and not 505. 502 was the closest fit I could find. The rise is one inch less, so they are “lower rise”, not “low rise”. The thigh and upper leg is not quite as generous as the new 505, but not as snug as the old (1990’s era) 505. The leg is narrower between the knee and ankle, tapering down about an inch. The 541 and 531 are much larger in the thigh and butt, and baggy on me.
The one negative in this is that there are only three color options in the All Seasons Tech fabric with the 502s, only one of those is blue, the Cholla Subtle. I am not sure what they are trying to do with this fabric. It has to be aimed at some specific niche market. The stitching is navy blue, instead, of gold, and they have heavily over dyed the denim fabric with navy blue dye. They look like WW2 era, navy issue dungarees, like you would see in a 1945 war movie. It’s so heavily over dyed that they bleed terribly on the first washing, and the white pockets turn blue. Because this is a stretch fabric, you can’t use bleach, like the 100% cotton jeans. Hydrogen peroxide has worked best for me with other stretch jeans, but the navy dye on the Cholla Subtle is very resistant to hydrogen peroxide. After four or five attempts at 8-12 hour soaks in hydrogen peroxide and water mix, I had barely made a dent. I ended up resorting to Rit brand color remover (two runs through the washing machine). But after each round with the dye remover, the color was even blue across the jeans, losing the fade and turning the pockets back from white to blue. So I had to soak the jeans in hydrogen peroxide after each use of the dye remover.
I managed to get them noticeably lighter in color. The vertical white grain pattern has started to emerge in the darker areas, but still not white, just lighter blue.
I think I could get them back to looking like denim with more of the dye remover, or possibly the Rit Fast Fade. But, at this point, I’m a little tired of fighting them. I’ve decided to wear them a while.
They feel a little more comfortable in hotter temperatures, but this is definitely not a moisture wicking fabric. Just a little more breathable.
I will wait until the 502s come up on sale again a couple weeks from now, buy another pair, and go at them more aggressively with dye remover or fast fade, and see if I can get them to a much lighter shade, with a the vertical grain lines in bright white.
I wish Levi’s would consider doing a 502 jean with the All Seasons fabric, in a normal blue denim, with gold stitching, like the Manzanita Subtle Adapt that is available in the 512 jeans.

My favorite pants had to be cut off due to a motorcycle accident. These are the same brand and size. These fit perfectly.
1, Problem I got 2 pair exact same sizes. Only the blue pair fit perfect. The black are way smaller around the waste.
The pants themselves are good fabric quality, with great deep pockets.

Fits great!

Genuine Levi quality, fits as expected and wears for a long time.
I usually get these when they’re on sale and it’s much cheaper than going to the outlet, which usually doesn’t have my size.

Fantastic fit and high quality fabric and design. Stitching looks boss.
It’s not a cut for you if you tend to be voluptuous.
In that case, just go with a relaxed fit.
These pants are boss!

502s are my favorite jeans and the only ones I buy now. Perfect fit, perfect amount of denim content %. Looks great with anything. It is cheaper buying on Amazon than in the store ($60 vs $100)

Most of the jeans I wear are what’s called “Regular Fit”. I have some athletic fit, and one “Athletic Taper” (I think that’s how it called), by Lee, which is also great – I don’t remember the model, but somehow in Levi’s I tend to be “old school”, so I mostly wear the 514. I got one who’s 541, and a few old 501s which I don’t wear anymore: 100% cotton – avoid, it’s not comfortable, the 90s are over (sadly), and there are more advanced fabrics now. I was looking for something more modern and after consulting with Gemini he recommended the 502 after it assured me It’s not slim and surely not skinny. It’s regular fit in the thighs, and *slightly* tapered down the ankle. It looks very elegant, or as Gemini called it “Sharp”. I highly recommend it, and I’m thinking on getting another one at a different color. Very nice jeans, too bad I discovered it just now.
