Question: are levi 501 skinny jeans?
Answer: It's old-school skinny. We used two types of denim for the 501 Skinny. The first one is the Shrink-to-Fit 501 denim, which is a proprietary denim that we reserve here at Levi's only for the 501. ... The 501 stretch has just a little more than that—around 13 to 15 percent.
