Bought several Levi's. Completely gave up on them d. Low quality jeans. They cater too much to B40 ppl to make it affordable.

For promo stuff its almost always low qualitg material used. Thinner. Scratch a bit koyak.

Funniest is they were pushing "stretchable" jeans. Bought one. Become fully stretched within a year. Everyone who saw me with it thought i wearing baggy jeans hiphop era. Lol.

Uniqlo now sell better jeans somehow.

depends too.

still many wearing slim jeans at my work place.
but when jalan2, will wear loose.

usually the low quality is the 511. very vary in quality.
some like shit, some ok.
some even worn for 6-7 years no prob. some 1 year koyak.

i'd stick to 501 and 502 and recently plenty of 505.

so far never spend more than 350 yet for a pair.

I wear 505 most of the time, I got one 511, but the material is thin stretchable type, which after 4 years it changed shape, I prefer thicker clothes, I have tried others at the shop, they all suite me nicely, but so far my fav is 505, 501 is button which I like but dont like the button, too bad.

Didn’t get Levis growing up mostly wore Lee all this while.
Only this year I got nudged into buying a pair of 510 skinny jeans
Not bad
Of course did all the usual get the jeans washed and wet and put them on so they shrink fit
