Opportunity to snap up a pair of LVC jeans at a bargain price. Make the most of my mistake. I bought the wrong size and after the initial wash they were too small. So for a buyer, there's all of a benefit and none of the risk!

Willing to consider international bidders, but message me first to discuss postage costs.

I do, actually. By now I do although not that often. I'm not familiar with the fit of the Levis lot #501XX series, though. They look somewhat lower in the crotch, more like a modern interpretation of a vintage cut; that's what the few measurements provided by some online shops indicate as well. If that's the case they won't sit on the natural waist and then they'd be too trim on me.
I'm curious about the fit of this series, though. Gotta try them next time I'm in London.

I own a pair which I was able to find
in my size.
I tried them on and were very comfortable
I usually wash/dryer with todays Levis
to softhen them up.
But not my '37 "501s"
They do not sit on the hips but rather
around the waist which I prefer.
I also like the rivet in crotch area.
Levi lore has it that top execs got
together for fireside cowboy style,all
wearing Levis.
One chap got too close to the fire
and rivet did the rest.
There after, the crotch rivet was
removed. So the legend goes! :D
