I read the reviews. Some people say order your size, some said size down and some said size up. I went with my regular size and they are just a size too small. I’m going to have to exchange for a size up and hopefully that will do the job. Will update review once I am able to get the other pair in!Great fit, I’ve had bad luck with high rise jeans, but these fit just right. No weird bulging upfront, and love the button fly. Super comfortable.I absolutely loved the wash and was disappointed when I couldn’t even pull them up to my waist. I am 90% if the time a size 30 in Levi’s. The 30 fit like a 28 maybe even 26. I ordered a 32 and they fit but I kind of wish I would have only sized up one. After wearing them for a few hours they are too big now. I’m hoping they will shrink in the wash because I really want to love this pair. If you have bigger hips and a smaller waist then this fit isn’t really for you. I’m 5’1” and 145 lbs.I am usually a size 28 or 29 in jeans, but upon reading the other reviews, I decided to jump up to 30. Lo and behold, those didn’t even go up my thighs. I am in the process of returning the small ones and just received the new ones. I had to jump all the way up to 32 which I have never had to do. A problem contributing to this is how stiff this denim is. Despite sizing up numerous sizes and having the waist loosely fitting, it’s practically impossible to bend in these, they’re so stiff. I think it’s also important to mention that I am 5’3 and these are not cropped on me.All in all, they look cute, they’re pretty flattering, but run extremely small and are very stiff.I love these. Fit great and perfect crop.Listened to other reviews and sized up. They fit perfect and are such good quality. Double bonus that I got them on saleI'm size 28 and rhat jeans slightly small Take 1 size bigger.No stretch at all but they will loosen up with wear throughout the day. Size up one or two sizes to accommodate for no stretch. For example. I usually wear a 28-30 but ordered a 32, and they fit perfect.Overall, I love my Levi's 501 pair! Here's why:1. Get your own size based on the Levi's sizing chart.Based on the chart, I fall between a 26-27, so I got a 27. However, the 27 started out kind of loose (it gave me a boyfriend fit more than a relaxed straight fit), and seeing as many people in reviews said that it will loosen up, I decided to get a 26 to compare.2. It is tight at first, but it will mold to your body.When the 26 arrived, I put it on and couldn't breathe in it. I could close the top button, but I couldn't move too much in it. I decided to take my chances and keep the 26 and return the 27, and I'm glad I did. After half a day of walking around and stretching in it, it has slowly loosened up and molded to my body. With time, I'm sure it will be a lot more comfortable.3. Length is perfect.I am 5'1", and the 26" inseam hits just below the ankle, giving me room to cuff it up a bit if I wanted to (which I did).I like the fit of the jeans but did have to go up a size, probably for two reasons: They are 99% cotton, so very little stretch and they are high-waisted. I’ve been looking for a jean that was more what we wore back in the day, heavy duty cotton denim. These are that!They do not fit like the picture, they come down to my ankles more. Like an unflattering flood! The denim is stiff and thick not soft like typical Levi’s jeans.Love it but how i wish they gonna stock smaller sizes for us petite and skinnier type. But since i liked its color and perfect length I'm keeping it anyway.Love these. They fit perfect
