Trends may indicate that looser-fitting pants are having a moment, but the slim fit is still the most popular style of jeans for men. Conveniently, one of Levi’s most famous pairs of slim-fit jeans is now on sale for up to 60% off.

The Levi’s 511 slim-fit men’s jeans are on sale for as low as $28—a savings of up to $42 off the original price of $70. With more than 800 reviews, this style is the No. 1 bestselling style of Levi’s jeans for men at Zappos, which is no small feat.

Levi’s 511 Slim jeans are one of the trophy styles from the brand. This classic five-pocket pant is designed in a wide array of washes and sits below the waist and close to the thigh—more than the 501 straight fit but less than the 510 skinny fit. They also have one of the best ankle tapers Levi’s has ever produced, allowing your shoes to be a shining part of the outfit. Stretch is another reason guys love these jeans. The brand has now made many styles of the 511 with stretchy elastane that makes them even more comfortable for all-day wear.

A slim pair of jeans is one of the most versatile pieces a man can wear. Whereas skinny jeans define the legs and seat too much and some straight-fit jeans can look too baggy, the silhouette of slim-leg jeans strikes the perfect balance between casual and semi-formal. It’s a wonderful companion for any type of men’s jacket, a white sneaker, or a rugged yet refined pair of men’s Chelsea boots.

Shoppers love the Levi’s 511 because of the variety, the immense comfort, and the updated fit. “The Levi's 511 fit is the ideal fit from this brand,” one shopper said. “Although the fit may be slightly different from the pair of 511s you had 20 years ago, they are still amazing, a high-quality, long-lasting denim. They do fit pretty true to size. I also did some serious research for the best price on these and found that Zappos was the best for less than most online retailers.”

Another shopper, who bought them for work, loved them so much they ended up buying multiple pairs. “Very comfortable,” they said. “They have a sense of weight that makes them feel more substantial. Not too skinny where you lose elasticity. If you're looking for something that is form-fitting, comfortable, and durable, then these are the jeans for you.”

Not only did Levi’s make the first pair of jeans, but the brand might still be the most sought-after maker even today. Starting at just $28, the Levi’s 511 Slim jeans are an absolute steal. If you’re looking to find your next favorite pair of pants, grab a pair of these while they’re on sale to be dressed and impressed for less before prices go back up.
