How Do Levis 527 Jeans Fit
Levis 527 jeans run true to size. I have always ordered my normal sizing for the 527 jeans and they have always fit.
The 527 jeans are a slim fit boot cut jean, so they obviously fit a bit slim through the thighs . You can expect them to be fitted through the thigh, then loosen into a boot cut at the bottom.
***The 527 jeans fit very similarly to the Levi 517 boot cut jeans. To take a closer look at the difference between the 527 and 517 jeans, visit our article Levi 517 vs 527. To read about more boot cut options for men, visit our article Beast Jeans for Work Boots.
But again, as far as waist and length, I have never had to size up or size down with these jeans. They have always had a true-to-size fit. Here are some pictures of me wearing my 527 jeans :

Again, as I mentioned earlier, the fabric in the 527 jeans can vary by color. Some fabrics have flex material, others are 100% cotton. I wear the flexible fabric because it is much more comfortable and convenient to work in. The fit around the waist is very comfortable due to the material.

How Long Do Levis 527 Jeans Last
I get good life out of my 527 jeans. Just like any pair of jeans, after long-term use I start to see a little wear around the pockets, but I get very reasonable life out of these jeans and thats why I have stuck with them.
One thing I do appreciate about these jeans also is I have had no issues with the buttons or zippers. Ive gone through several pairs of these 527 jeans over the years, and personally have never had a button pop off or a zipper break, which is nice.

Why I Like Levis 527 Jeans
I personally dont like super-baggy jeans. I prefer jeans to have a slimmer fit, but I also dont like skinny jeans. These jeans have a perfect in-between fit for me they arent too tight or too baggy.
Another reason I like these jeans is they are made with the flex fabric. Now, it is important to note that certain colors in the 527 jeans are made with 100% cotton, so the fabric will vary. The jeans I buy have the flex fabric and it makes these jeans incredibly easy to move in and work in.
I can bend, kneel, and crouch and these jeans have the flexibility to handle it. When you combine the flexibility with the fit, these are the perfect boot cut work jeans for me, and that is why I have stuck with them for several years.

Do Levis 527 Jeans Shrink
Now for one of the most important issues, especially for sizing: do Levis 527 jeans shrink?
Yes, Levis 527 jeans shrink, but the total amount of shrinkage is relatively minimal. I do see a small amount of shrinkage in my 527 jeans over time, but I do tumble dry them on high heat at times. If you avoid high heat, good chance you see less shrinkage than I have. Here are the care instructions:
Here is a pair of 527 jeans Ive washed and tumble-dried about 20 times compared to a brand new pair of 527s:
As you can see, there is definitely a little bit of shrinking there. For me, I dont mind it. But it is important for me to again stress that I tumble dry mine on high heat. If you follow their care instructions, you will most likely see less shrinkage.
