Scout Sixteen - Nordstrom Denim









  1. I have a pair of 511s that I got last year and I can’t get enough of them. I’m picky when it comes to pants and how they fit, but these have always been great.

  2. How do the 511 Rigid Dragon’s fit? I’ve heard size up one and I’ve heard to order your size. Which do you recommend?

  3. I found a pair of Levi’s LVC 501’s 1954 Z two summers ago and have yet to find a pair that fit as well as they do; they’ve become my go to. My problem with finding jeans is that I have very long (34-36″ inseam) skinny legs but thicker thighs, so it’s hard for me to find jeans that are a) long enough and b) fitted in the leg and c) flattering in the thigh. What’s neat about Levi’s Vintage Clothing 501’s is that they offer a version of the 501’s faithfully reproduced from different decades’ patterns, so the wearer has the advantage of getting the 501 style, but can choose which decade fits their body type and style best. Turns out I was born to live in the 50’s, because the slim and tapered carrot shape (who knew?) 501’s fit my needs perfectly AND are long enough with room to add a small cuff to expose the selvedge.
