Does anyone else...

Colt Super
...wear Levi's 501 button up jeans??

As I was dressing this morning, I realized that I have worn this style blue jeans as long as I remember.

Anyone have any explanation for a grown-up man wearing BUTTON up
jeans ??

I have zippers in all my other pants, but not in Levi's

The voices in my head tell me that only this supremely intellectual group will have the answer.

    Levi 501 are all I own.
    I do not have an explanation for you about why grown men wear them though.

    501's mmmm NO

    551's is where it is at, IMO much more relaxed and i can run in them where as the 501's are hard enough to get into. try and run in them and I'm done.

    I quit buying Levi's when I found out that Levi Strauss Corp. was one of the biggest contributors to the anti-gun lobby.

    I wore 501 shrink to fits as long as I could remember, Until Levi in there ultimate cost saving wisdom changed the belt loop pattern and I switched to Wranglers not because of anything but the belt loop pattern.

    I wore 501's until the first time I tried to straddle a saddle to ride a horse while wearing them. Crowded certain things so much- and painfully so- that I went to Wranglers with no problems.

    I wore 501's for the longest time, because I'm only gonna wear levi's and that's the farthest I thought I needed to look. but after you wash them, you can't wear them for very long before the material gets all stretched out in all the wrong places. (I think it's a little different material for 501's, unless it's just the way they're cut) and I figured out they really don't fit my ass that good either.

    I went with the regular fly 505's, the problems with the 501's were solved. I also like the 527's (low rise, sort of flared leg) and 507's (retro-looking long ass, boot cut) which, unfortunately, aren't sold in the US, only in England. it seems they do all use slightly different denim.

    I hate the "relaxed fit" 550's.

    when did I figure all this out? when I was forced to go out and buy all new jeans, because I was doing my laundry at a laundromat and got hit by JEANS THEIVES. the f*($*($ s$* o' b#$# stole all 10 pairs or so of my jeans and left all my other clothes in the dryer! think about it, they probably got about $200 or so when they went to sell them on ebay. I got hit again not too long ago for another 8 pairs.

    I wore them in High School (almost 20 years ago) But have switched to jeans from Academy.. Look just as good, last longer, cost 14.99 everyday.. With a wife, 2yo, and a gun habit every dollar I can save on clothes is a good thing. [:D]

    When I was much younger I wore 501's for a brief period, but just didn't care for the button fly.

    I buy pre-washed 505's exclusively.
