After the video of Levi´s 501 150th Ann, I decide to make a video about the shrinkage, also I promise to try the size 34 but to not be redundant I attach the link for the original video were I try the size 34.
• Levi´s 501 150th anniv... .
I hope enjoy this video, I really enjoy producing this video.

Thank you for the detailed video🙂 But the back patch is not leather, it does look very much so though. You could tell by taking a good look at its backing and the cross section, it is too uniform for the leather. It took three cold water soaks for my two pairs to settle on shrinkage. 2 inches for overall length altogether, the first one was obviously the largest with subsequent soaks adding a little each. The forth soak was a wash, no pun intended.
Thank you!! Great, I just pin your comment because can be useful for other viewers
@@UrbanLadUK In the EU-version the back patch is definitively real leather, it's even written on the care label. And thank you UrbanLadUK for the great review, it was spot on, these jeans are very nice, especially for true Levi's fans. Your enthusiasm and passion for denim can be seen clearly from your videos, keep up the good work!
That was a wonderfully made video.Detailed well.Presented well.Thank you 😊
Hi!! Thank you
Very detailed video! I just bought these pants today and your video gave me a clearer picture of what I bought! Thanks!
Thank you!! I´m happy that you liked the video!!
Really nice detailed review. You covered the sizing and fit and construction in a useful way. I had a pair of the stf salvage 501 and noticed that they were like the boxier 1955 model.
Thank you! That is my tough that the fit is closer to the 1955 fit.
These are a steal. Picked up 2 pairs myself for $60 each. As crazy as this sounds, I believe the construction may be superior to my Made in Japan LVC's.
Are really good quality!!
i think the jeans fit you very well, and the outfit is great. Great taste sir
Thank you!!
Thanks, those precision really help me to buy mine (in my regular waist size). You should do a resume on the difference from an Original 501, the washed 1947, 1955, 1966, 150th... And your final tought on wearing them for day to day. Would like to try a LVC, but the current fit on the Original cut 501 in regular, Premium (non stretch) and selvedge are really easy fit to live in.
Edit; Those 150th in 34 are the exact same size and mesures of the "36" LVC 1966, except the 150th have a higher rise of 1/2-3/4 inch. Both look similar quality.
Very interesting suggestion, I’ll work on it!!
I have them I’m not going to wash them for two to 3 years I want to form all the creases on them first,great video I luv your videos on denim keep up the good work 👍
I cant do that.I allways try 2 months, i like to go on the sierras cutting wood.I try 2 months than wash and i am 69 i am to old for that jazz thing on bathub.Washing machine 30 degrees cold. When i was young i donne a few travells around Europe 5 months no wash its my record.
Thank you!! They are going to develop nice fades!!!
Careful not washing jeans for more than 6 months can increase crotch blow outs. The dirt and bacteria on jeans is abrasive.
in the beginning of January, this model was on very good sale in us, somehow i was able to get couple pairs of them, for 44.37$ with tax(each)
First one i bought about 8 months ago was 34x32 (for 78$) do not fit me well and after a couple of washes inseam shrink and its look short for me, i thik i’ll sell them
On sale i get couple of them 33x34 much better, its baggy at the beginning but they shrink, should be better with time,
because all experience before i have with 501 stf when i usually go with my size, after 1.5-2 years i can not put them on literally )) was so tight,
So for people who say they dont shrink, you need to go minimum plus one size
People say here they dont shrink, wait )))
HI!! They do shrink but in my experience not as much the LVC edition. In the LVC edition I need 36x34 as minimal ideally 38x36 (I relay in the stretch), but with this edition I test 36 and 34 and they shrieked but not that much, between 34 and 36, I have stayed with 34, because they are larger in measuraments too, the 34 was loose on me. I believe it is both things not that much shrinkage and larger measurements.
@@UrbanLadUK
yeah im agree for this model two size up could be a little much, i wish this model more slim, i dont like proportions of the waist to the legs,
Where do you find them that cheap? I would love to know 😀
I am always digging and looking for barging plus patience, mostly on Levi’s website, and I have discounts associated with my profession, visit outlets
THANKS SO MUCH ✅👌
👍👍👍👍
How do you get Levi’s coupons? A size 33 in regular shrink to fit ended up too tight on me after a bunch of washes. Should I go size 34 on these or do they fit larger than regular shrink to fit? I’m a size 33 w but I usually fit in size 31 w for Levi. 32 is usually a touch big.
Hi, I have a club card from my profession that gives me a discount also here in the UK there are sales online and in mortar brick outlets at Levi’s you can find good bargains, with the 150th anniversary buy your normal size, the LVC version 1 size up and the Chinese cotton and hemp probably one size up too
I personally bought the 34x34 and were actually 36x34 and couldn't imagine shrinking enough to fit well, they were huge. I returned them and bought 32x34, still a little loose pre shrinking but should shrink down nicely I think. I measured my waist and im a little over 34 so im jot sure whats with Levi's sizing on these?
To my surprise, the shrinking of this model is not much. Usually, I’m size 34 in Levi’s, and I was advised to buy 36 in this model and after soaking the fitting is on the loose side that's why I bought size 34 too
Yes definitely one to buy, try and return if necessary. I love the jeans, they are great especially for the price but glad I decided to size down, I don't think I would feel so good about them if I kept the original pair.
Just thought I should add I also bought a pair of 501 indigo farm stf. Not selvedge but nice denim and very well made. Have you tried these?
Nice pick !!! I haven’t tried those jeans!!
I just ordered a pair on eBay. Is there a way to slow down the shrinking? Would cold water slow down the shrinking?
If you wash them in the washing machine using a cold cycle and wool program, with no spin, and let them dry in a hanger probably, you are going to minimise the shrinkage; if you are worried about shrinkage, wear the jeans without washing or soaking
I LOVE THE COMENTS, ON 501 150 anniversary, WERE A CAN BUY ONE ✅
Hi! Still available online in the Levi’s website other option that looks very nice is the 501 selvedge cotton/hemp blend (raw or one wash) 👍
Did you soak & use dryer as well or not?
I soak or wash depending on the jeans, but never use a dryer 👍
It not shrink to much we can buy true to size and go on for 2 months no wash
The denim looks amazing heavier than tha lvc
My pair size 34 is like size 35, and with that degree of shrinkage, you can go safe for a soak without causing much impact.
When you say bath tub as warm as possible, could you give me an estimate on how hot that is, I would like similar shrinkage on my pair so this is very important to me!
Hi! I'd only use the hot tap water that is set to 52 degrees, and the water in the bath is 40 degrees Celsius.
@@UrbanLadUK thank you for the fast response! Into the tub they go!
@@UrbanLadUK do you keep the water at a steady 40 degrees or just the initial plunge and let it sit and cool down for 45 minutes
@@SelvedgeDenimMan Hi!! Just the initial plunge and let it sit until cool down also I shake the jeans until I sure that are completely wet !!!
@@UrbanLadUK thank you! They’re drying as we speak! So excited for this pair. Your video gave me the assurance I can buy these STF :)
My 150s didn’t shrink hardly at all - they are still 2 sizes too big
The advice of Levi’s is not good regarding this edition. Sorry to hear that it is too big for you

China is best baby ❤

Who would say 20 years ago
@@Cormac-jd2kx It is true and still the perception of the people is that the products are mostly rubbish, but the Chinese have learnt a lot and there are products of quality, talking about fashion.
