Customer Reviews Levi's® Mens 559™ Relaxed Straight

The sizing seems to change frequently. The 34 waist used to run large but the most recent pair fit like a 32.

As mentioned by another reviewer, the denim feels a bit lighter than what you find in other stores. I am not sure if that is a switch with Levis or something else. The thighs are a touch tighter than the 559s that I bought a couple of years ago. Otherwise they feel great. The Indie Blue wash is nice.

Nice and relaxed jeans. Not so roomy that they look baggy, but just enough to be comfy and causal. Not quite as trendy as some other jeans but very comfy and classic look.

I bought these for my boyfriend who is very particular about how his jeans fit. He really likes them and they fit great. I bought them in "Blue Collar" and when we got them they were a bit darker than the picture led us to believe. Overall very happy with the jeans though.

Love the darkness of the fabric, but the denim wasn't quite as good as I was expecting. And possibly runs a little big in size.

I like the jeans, I have other 559 pairs in my closet. But this pair seems to have a bit shorter rise than my other pairs. Not a huge deal, but just not as comfortable for me.

I've actually never worn Levi's. That sounds weird, but it's true. These jeans are very comfortable. They're sturdy, but not too stiff or thick. The size I went with was spot-on, even for my chubby self. Good buy.

As much as I love Levis Jeans I do have a problem with the sizing. Ever since they started production outside of the U.S. the fit has beenall over the place. My suggestion is to try several sizes on and you wil find the one that works best for you. But when you do find that perfect fit, thay are the best jeans out there! And of course buying from Zappos is the only way to go!

I was looking for a new style jean...so I tried these. sizing is all over the place, depending on what color you get. I ordered the standardize, 42/30 these were big. Also ordered indie blue same size these were way to big sent these back. So I tried to order a size smaller, Standardize 40/30 these fit better. Ordered Blue Collar 40/30 Way to small...sent those back. All I can say is thank god for Zappos free shipping both ways!

My husband usually wears the 569 jeans, but when I heard the 559s are to replace the 569s, I decided to have him try them out. These did not work at all. He has a muscular build and these are too snug in the thigh for his comfort. I did notice this was a complaint in other reviews. Also, I think the denim feels thin. I have worn levi's my ENTIRE life, and I am really disappointed in the quality. I guess we are going to have to find another brand.

I've been buying the same cut and size of Levi's jeans for years. I went out of my way to buy these jeans, because I thought that I knew what I would be getting. The jeans that I received were my size and style, but fit very skinny in my thighs and butt. I compared them to another pair, and the cut is definitely different between the two pairs. At least an inch and a half narrower in the hips than a pair that I bought in November 2010. This is the third pair that I've tried that did not meet my expectations. One pair, purchased at a national retail chain was clearly counterfeit, and another was completely untrue to size. Either Levi's quality control, or their brand management is terrible - but seriously, you've disappointed a long-time customer. I have not decided yet whether I will be returning these, but I am questioning my loyalty to the brand.

I have three other pairs of this exact same color Levi Jeans, mans 559, and those fit great. The pair I got from Zappos says that it is the same size on the tag, but way too loose around the waist. I should have returned them immediately, but I tried wearing them. They never shrank after several wash/dry cycles.

The Levi's 559 fits me well so I decided to buy a couple of different finishes. The Sub Zero finish was consistent without excessive fading. I returned the Range finish because the irregular fading went over the edge. I wear jeans to work; the Range finish makes the jean look totally worn out. So be aware that the finish shown in the multi-angle pics isn't necessarily what you'll get. It isn't Zappos fault, it's simply random luck of the draw. Other than the finish, the 559 style and comfort are unsurpassed. I rated them low on Overall because of the Range finish.

Sent these back because they were not the quality I expected. I bought the same exact style of Levis I get at Macy's, but these were much thinner denim with different stitching. They fit smaller too.

These pants are great when they are true to size. I find that Levi's in general vary greatly depending on where they are made. In my last round of jean purchases I literally had to order six pairs of 559s to find one pair that fit true. I am 6'3 and 170 pounds.

I ordered 3 pairs and, though all are marked the same size (34x34), they are in actuality 3 different sizes. One pair noticeably larger than older pairs of 559s I already own. and the other two pairs are far too large (I'd need a belt to hold them up- which has never been the case with 559s that I've been wearing for years). While variety is nice at times, not in this context. Tag says they were made in Lesotho.

Trash

Did I purchase Levi's or some sort of men's 'Spanx'. The material on these jeans is the thinnest denim I have ever seen. I have a hard time believing that these are genuine Levi's 559 jeans. There isn't a 'tissue weight' fabric option that I accidentally checked, so I know something is amiss.

I've bought 4 different pairs of these jeans in around the past year in the same wash, and the variance in color and sizing between these different pairs is totally unacceptable. All of the jeans I've bought have been manufactured in different countries and every pair fits and looks completely different. Just sent back another pair that were way too long and baggy. The difference in the leg opening between the same wash and size in these and another pair that I have was about 2". That's the last pair of Levi's I'm buying, time to find a new brand of jeans that has some level of consistency in sizing.

I've been wearing Levis all my life and I've never been more shocked at the low quality product I received. I literally have t-shirts that are thicker than these jeans. I'm not one to leave unwarranted bad reviews, but don't buy these! Cheap Walmart jeans are a higher quality and they use denim. These are like wearing a dress shirt on your legs.

I have 2 other pairs of 559s that are different colors and these fit way differently! Much too big, and very disappointing.

The jeans were a good price and arrived very quickly. The quality of the jeans was poor as they didn't fit properly. The legs were extremely baggy. I have purchased the same style Levi's before and never had this problem. They are unwearable so it was really no bargain. I think they were factory seconds.

Perfect fit and great jeans.

Perfect for m

I bought these for my husband. He found them to be comfortable and is happy with them. We always have a great experience with Zappos.
