Customer Reviews Levi's® Premium Ribcage Straight Ankle

this review is for the color Jazz Pop. I have another pair of premium ribcage straight ankle in a different color. They fit completely differently! The waist is higher on these and I had to size up two sizes from my previous pair. I needed a 28 in these and I'm a 26 or 27 is almost all denim. I didn't end up keeping them.

Almost perfect. These are TTS, and look great. However, on me they are a little too snug in the stomach area, even standing up. For reference: 5'9 140lb, bought size 29. ... I accidentally reviewed these twice b/c I mixed them up with the other Levis I ordered. The other review is incorrect.

These corduroy jeans fit true to size, using a tape measure around your real-life waist. I learned this the hard way. If you are a 26-27, get the 27. Reviews on the Levi's site say these run small; this is the 99-100% cotton fabric content version. Reviews here say these jeans run large, 51% cotton, 47% polyester, 2% elastane. See the discrepancy? As well, with all the lycra and stretch in jeans fabric these days, many women are able to cram into a smaller size than their waist measurement. They are probably not aware of how unflattering they look from the back, with a flattened-pancake uni-bum and fabric creases up the back of their thighs. Get your real size. Don't go by the size of other brand jeans you have. As well, the color wash of these corduroy ribcage jeans is exactly as described, decadent chocolate - red. Not maroon, not burgundy, not purple-ish, just a reddish hue but still brown. Everyone sees color differently, so pay no heed to other's perceptions of the color. I'm writing this review to help someone else avoid the trial and error I experienced trying to get the right size. As it turns out, my true size 27 fit (26 in higher quality brands or with lots of stretch). As described, the legs are straight, and therefore not exactly sexy ... but great for comfort and sight seeing or working all day. Or unless you are 5'9".

do not like high waisted jeans, it's too tight in the stomach and so uncomfortable

I ordered my regular size 27/27 and they were just a bit snug in the waist but fit perfectly everywhere else. If I sized up to a 28 I feel the jeans would be too large overall. There is a slight stretch, so after wearing all day, they seemed to loosen up a bit. I love the jeans and I am a fan of Levis products, but I do feel that their sizing is a bit inconsistent and jeans are not always true to size.

Runs very small!

Wonderful! Obsessed…love the high waist. I’m 5’5 140 lbs bought 27/27. Great w wedges or flats!

I’m 5’5 140 lbs bought size 27 fits great. Love the high rise fit!

These fit great! I’m 5’3 135lb and got size 27. They are so cute and I got tons of compliments

Just got these in the mail and they are even cuter in person! I can’t wait to wear these with some clogs and a cute top. They definitely give me 70’s vibes and I’m here for it.

Just a heads up, the Ojai Up color runs a size small - I’m a 27 in all Levi’s Ribcage and had to size up to a 28 in these. Otherwise, they’re fantastic and ACTUALLY high rise.

Not a fan of the button fly, but otherwise great jeans that go with everything.

Perfect!

Cute, but smaller than the other 30x27's I bought. It's a shame that the sizing isn't consistent. The other ones are flattering, these were too tight!

Too short in crotch depth

Super soft and comfortable. I really like the shade of green. The inseam is only 27" because the style is ankle and I do wish they were longer, but with certain boots, they work. They definitely have a high rise, which I haven't worn since the mid-90s, and I was worried the rise wouldn't be comfortable, but they are.

I ordered the Samba Done color. They fit TTS through the waist & hips... but they are skinny leg on me, not straight leg like the picture. For reference, I'm 5'9 140lbs and I got a size 29. As always, I appreciate Zappos's free returns :)

It was not clear to me that the chocolate brown color is corduroy rather than denim. I would have been happy to roll with this! However, I ordered my usual Levi's size (25) and these were at least two sizes too large. The inseam was also closer to 29 than 27, so my 5'2" self was swimming in them.

I wear size 12 in AE. These were tiny and I couldn’t get them buttoned all the way in 31’s.

This denim is very heavy. When I took out of package I was skeptical. Tried them on- awful for me. I am 5' 2" 147lbs. They were 27 inseam which hit at ankle , button fly that got tighter w/ each buttoned.....the waistband when buttoned was 3 inches below my bust. Uh, no. Terrible on short torso ppl. Probably looks good on tall people with relatively straight body shape

The sizing of these pants is extremely misleading , I measured my waist and ordered accordingly , they were much too large . I am typically a 6 or an 8 , mostly an 8 , these had to be like a size 14 . Why do you not use the typical sizing scale ? Will never buy pants with this sizing method again .

I’m petite and have a 24 in waist. These jeans were way too big for me in a size 24. I felt sloppy in them because these jeans were so baggy in the back. I did like the button fly. I will be returning!
