The Levi's® 516™ Straight Fit Jean is a versatile everyday denim style with a classic straight leg that's slightly slimmer than a traditional straight fit. Sitting below the waist and cut slim through the hip and thigh, it creates a clean, streamlined silhouette while retaining the easy-wearing appeal of straight-leg denim.
Crafted from Comfort Stretch denim with 99% cotton and 1% LYCRA®, the 516™ provides added flexibility for comfortable everyday movement while maintaining an authentic denim look and feel. Finished in Stonewash, a classic mid-blue wash with a naturally lived-in appearance, it's an easy choice for casual everyday wear. The 516™ is also the updated style to consider for customers who previously wore the Levi's® 504™.

What's the difference between the Levi's® 516™ and 511™?
The 516™ has a straight leg with more room through the lower leg, while the 511™ has a slimmer, more tapered silhouette.
Do the Levi's® 516™ jeans have stretch?

How should I care for them?
Where practical, Levi's® recommends washing jeans no more than once every 10 wears to help extend their lifespan and conserve resources. Machine wash cold, inside out, with similar colours. Do not bleach. Tumble dry medium and warm iron if required.
