I have purchased four pairs of Levi relaxed fit 550 jeans over the past two years and the second belt loop on the left side tears out within months of use. I don't wear anything on my belt, nor are they stressed in any way that cause damage. There are other quality issues I have with this product, especially at the price charged for them.

In the past year I have had all 6 pair of 501's purchased at Macy's fail in the exact same manner: First a small hole at the crotch, then RIP wide open at the crotch. I bought 6 pair of blue jeans so I could rotate them. I don't wear them for work, but still they all failed. The seventh pair is black, and so far no hole or rip (yet). Like many others here, I grew up wearing Levi's and never thought I'd switch to another brand. But if every pair are made overseas from thin material likely to fail, what choice do I have? Like others here, I would be willing to pay more for a better quality pair of "Original" Levis. The product they are selling now is DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE for Levi's dwindling sales and financial woes. People won't keep buying the red tag, if it's attached to a substandard pair of jeans. I tried the 800# listed here. their closed for training, call back later. I tried the 800# on the Levis.com site: It rings repeatedly, then bounces to the same "We're closed for training" message. Good to know the customer service is every bit as good as the product. I will give them a chance to make it right. If they don't I will tell EVERYONE I KNOW exactly why they should not buy Levi's again.

I wish Levi's would quit making womens plus size jeans stretchy.
Hello! They don't make a person look any better and they don't fit as well as the 100% cotton denim!
I WANT MY OLD JEANS BACK!!!!!!! SPANDEX SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Levi's have been around forever. If it ain't broke don't fix it! Go back to the way you made them in 1999.
