Jeans are, objectively, an almost perfect article of clothing. You can class them up with a suit jacket and some dressy shoes and head off to your board meeting, or throw on your favorite band tee and totally be ready to get bruised in the mosh pit. But as versatile as they are, you don’t want to risk looking like you just rolled out of bed — enter the Levi’s, the unbeatable “old school cool” of the denim world.
Navigating the unspoken dress code that is proper jean wearage can be a bit hard, especially when you’re taking fashion trends and seasonal changes into account, but Levi’s seems to have an answer for everything. We’re talking white jeans for post-Labor Day wearing, big ole dad jorts meant to be paired with your New Balances and some Midwestern Emo records, and Western-wear sported by the likes of Mrs. Cowboy Carter, Beyoncé herself.
And yes, while we love to scour thrift shops for classic cut 501s and limited releases as much as the next jenim freak, those can get pricey. So if you’re just a regular person looking to buy just a good, solid pair of jeans, you’re in luck — right now you can buy Levi’s on Amazon for almost nothing. You could save up to 43% off on a pair of 501s, the world’s original jean, the Cadillac of jeans! Depending on your size and wash picks, you can score them for near $50.
From Run-DMC, to Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift, a great many famous musicians have slipped into 501s over the years. But you’ll find plenty of other Levi’s denim on sale too, from flared and baggy, to summertime jorts, and even Doechii’s (pre-customized) trucker jacket. While most of these discounts are size dependent, they’re still worth a gander — these are seriously some of the best sales on Levi’s we’ve seen this year, and your wardrobe should always carry a pair.
Levi’s Men’s 501 Original Fit Jeans (Also Available in Big & Tall), Medium Stonewash, 32W x 30L
One of Levi’s most classic designs, you can’t go wrong with a pair of 501s (for 30% off right now), and that’s especially true when it comes to your everyday wardrobe. The fit looks tailored enough for the office (with a suit jacket or loafers), but they still feel casual enough to wear on the weekends paired with some fresh, white kicks too
Levi’s Men’s 517 Boot Cut Jeans, Rinse, 32W x 30L
In the words of Bey: “Denim on denim on denim.” We own these classic Levi’s 517s, a streamlined pair of jeans with a bootcut fit that’s ready for a Western-inspired getup (or a Yellowstone watch part) — wear with your best pair of cowboy boots and a denim jacket or cowboy hat.
Levi’s Men’s 550 Relaxed Fit Jeans (Also Available in Big & Tall), Medium Stonewash, 34W x 32L
If you’re looking for something wider in the hips and thigh, but more tapered in the leg than typical Nineties styles, you’re going to want to spring for Levi’s relaxed fit 550 jeans. You’ll get the room in the waist and a higher raise, but a slightly slimmer silhouette. Tipping more towards the causal side of the scale, these jeans are great for weekend backyard hangs and pairing or pairing with a trucker jacket for that Canadian tux look.
Levi’s Men’s 505 Regular Fit Jeans (Also Available in Big & Tall), Rinse-Dark Wash, 32W x 30L
No matter which route you go, you can’t go wrong rocking a pair of these 505 Regular fit jeans. We gravitate towards this Levi’s style in a darker navy wash. Fit for both your 9-to-5 and happy hours alike, these are casual jeans at their coolest — pair them with a chambray shirt, a white tee, and you’re all set.
Levi’s Men’s 469 Loose Short, Light Run – Light Indigo, 32
Not too skinny, not too baggy, these dad fit Levi’s loose jorts are both easy to wear, and even easier to style thanks to their practical “vibes”. Cut in a relaxed fit with a light wash style straight out the Nineties, we appreciate their their longer-than-standard length. They’re nice enough that they don’t scream “kid at the skate park” but you could shred in these, probably.
