Levi's Commuter 504 Pants - Men's - Men's
Whether you're headed to the coffee shop, or to work, you want to look like an ordinary human, despite the fact that you rode a bike to get there. If that sounds familiar, and you're not into super-skinny jeans, the Levi's Commuter 504 will keep you pedaling in comfort, and style. Based off the classic straight leg 504, it adds technical fabric treatment, a gusseted crotch, and increased coverage, among other standout features. But the best part is that despite the tech, they look, fit, and wear just like jeans, not pro team warmup gear. This means that your old favorite jeans should be getting nervous right about now.

It's for this very reason that Levi's also incorporated an odor-resistant Sanitized finish to the pants, too. Levi's also made these pants perfect for trips where your bag is staying at home by installing a U-lock holster along the rear of the waistband. This way, you're not ramming your lock down your pants or wearing out your belt. Logging hours in the saddle will quickly thrash the vast majority of jeans, which is why Levi's added a double-layered seat panel and beefed it up with a gusset that resists tearing and saddle abrasion. In terms of fit, the 504 ranks as a regular fit, so they're baggier than the sli...
