Levi's
Buying Levi's is not really about choosing a pair of jeans. It is about choosing a fit number, because that three-digit code decides where the waistband sits, how much room you get through the seat and thigh, and whether the leg runs straight, tapers in or hangs loose. Get the number right and the denim, wash and length are easy.
