Levi's Perfectly Slimming 512's — 

This is for the Gals who still Love their jeans but are starting to feel too stiff in them and can't move around good enough in anymore. Well Levi didn't leave us down. They are the most comfortable jeans I've ever worn, so comfy I'm starting to donate the rest.

My Daughter's bought me my first pair.  You can get them at Penneys on sale for $29.99 if you watch for the sales. When I put those on I knew I'd never wear another pair, Did I mention they're Boot cut!

They look like denim but are acually cotton with a little spandex for bending and stretching.

The only downfall is the pockets are small because they are part of the slimming.

I had to laugh when the woman I bought them from who was selling them from her sister's store wanted to know why a women whowears a size 6 would need a slimming jean. Hmmm, don't we all get a little ouch certain times of the month, there nice for that and they seem to give the ole butt a little lift in the process. making you feel 20+ years younger.

Well that's all I really have to say other than the ole clique changed a little, "Try Them You'll Love Them!"

eBay is notorious for knock offs. You never really know what you're getting.

No the NYDJ's are just way over priced if youu ask me and I thiink half the ones they sell on eBay are knock offs because they don't look like the ones at their site???
The NYDJ's have the slimming panel too.

I gave up on jeans long ago because I liked the look but the material was just too stiff at first. Maybe I should give jeans a try again.

Hi, so are these the 550s? We can ask Meredith to change the title. Let me know. Jo

Sorry, if the first one sent I was still 1/2 asleep! Yeah,you'll like the 550's I really did until I found the 52's. I still bear them from time to time. If you are going on eBay make sure you ask questions because they have been around awhile are out their in both the sretch and no-stretch or 100% cotton, as well as the relaxed fit and classic which I am thinkin' are the stretch in more like a trim fit and they are also out their in boot cut and the tapered leg therefore before looking for them on eBay check out JCP and see the up to date upgrades so you know you are buying the newest look and features of the 550's! sorry, I was downagain this time IBS had a hold of me. Good Luck!
Oh yeah another one on eBay to watch is the length, th day before I bought my last 2 512's 5 must havw wenr off the day before all 6 M withab ubseam of 28".. A NWT Levi;s 6 m or I guess any brand and a Medum inseam before they are washed should be 32' the first wash will probably take them up to about a 31 1/2' then the next to about 30-31, measure the insem of you favorite pair of jeans and if buying a used pair be sure of the inseam measurements!

Thanks for the reply! I like 8.5 inch rises so the 550's are my pick. I saw the "slimming jeans" at Penny's (on their site). Have heard of NYDJ but thought they might be baggy or elastic waisted. Don't want to go there just yet. I will check ebay and see what's happening there. Welcome back to the site!

Wow I didn't know that was here I am sorry I haven't ben on for so long. Yeah the 512's are about a 10 12", the 550's are about 8 1/2" other than that I don't know. I did notice at Penny's they have a similar slimmer I belive it's by St. John's Bay and I think Lee makes one too. I don't know what the rises are on wither of those. On EBay I's NYDJ *Not Your Daughters Jeans) that are the higher cost jeans but I think they are lower in irse and lift th back side too. I always anted to try a pair but haven't had the extra bucks and I think the rise would be low for me.
Hope that helped ya out somewhat. You're a tiny one, you might be able to get a good deal on those NJDJ on eBay.
Good Luck.
I just bought my 2 last 512's for awhile on eBay NWT's from the same dealer both pairs for less than one I'd have to pay for at JCP or Kohl's, they came today, so I should be set for a while. If you give me your email addy and want me to help you do some research for slimming ones for you tell.
me what rise you need and I'll try to help ya. excuse my typos I have RA Mines: sandiwoods57@yahoo.com

I'm a size 4 but I like slimming too! Are these high rise? I have trouble with them because I have a short torso and the high rise jeans look like they go up to my chest. lol.
