Levi's 501 150th Anniversary Selvedge Edition After Soaking

#levis #selvedgedenim #mensfashion

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.

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.

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 )))

Very detailed video! I just bought these pants today and your video gave me a clearer picture of what I bought! Thanks!

That was a wonderfully made video.Detailed well.Presented well.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.

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.

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 👍

[wjlevien]

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.

i think the jeans fit you very well, and the outfit is great. Great taste sir

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?

[arielguzman]

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.

[johnmcintyre]

I just ordered a pair on eBay. Is there a way to slow down the shrinking? Would cold water slow down the shrinking?

[ravieshsharma]

Did you soak & use dryer as well or not?

[SelvedgeDenimMan]

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!

I LOVE THE COMENTS, ON 501 150 anniversary, WERE A CAN BUY ONE ✅

[antoniobranco]

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

[mikegraves]

My 150s didn’t shrink hardly at all - they are still 2 sizes too big
