Levi's 515: Everything to Know About the Slim-Fit Jean

Levi's 515 is one of the more searched jean cuts online, and it's easy to see why once you understand where it sits in the Levi's lineup. Here's what makes it different, and where to shop it.

What is the Levi's 515?

The 515 is a slim-fit jean — a more fitted alternative to the classic 501 straight leg, without moving into the tightest skinny silhouettes. At LYBSTORE it's available in a standard slim cut and a slim taper, which narrows slightly more at the ankle. Both are built for an everyday fit that works with trainers, boots or smarter shoes alike.

Levi's 515 vs other Levi's cuts

  • 515 vs 501 — the 501 is a straight, non-stretch classic; the 515 is slimmer through the leg for a more modern fit.
  • 515 Slim vs 515 Slim Taper — the standard slim holds its width down the leg; the slim taper narrows further at the ankle for a closer fit at the hem.
  • 515 vs 568 — Levi's 568 is a looser, baggier cut; the 515 stays fitted throughout.
