I have a bunch of LEVI'S 510 SUPER-SKINNY jeans in various colors and washes, and I must say that I really love them! I first started wearing the LEVI'S 511s (Skinny), which I also love, but I decided to try the 510s when they first came out. I must've been a little out of shape back then and I got them in the "rigid" wash-material, which is really stiff, and I didn't like they way they felt. For some reason, I didn't like the way the jeans fit around my calf muscles. Anyway, I think it was the wash that made them so uncomfortable.

So, I decided to buy a pair that had more stretch to them and I was in Heaven. Those weren't hard and stiff and the material felt like a second skin. Since then I've been buying up 510s whenever I see a cool color that I want.

I also got into shape by losing a few pounds and can now get into a 34. The 510s fit normally on the waist, so they aren't low-rise like the 511s, and the crotch isn't sagging or too low, so the jeans hug your butt and groin area just right. They also fit nicely on your legs, which is good if you're like me and have muscular thighs because the pant legs will stretch and hug them and show them off quite nicely, fitting slim all the way to the ankle.

They look great with a pair of high-tops or Chuck Taylor's or boots. The "Clean-Worn" color is like a sky blue with bleached out marks on the upper thighs and some small worn-out, frayed holes in the knee and thigh and it has a soft, favorite pair of jeans feel. I would also suggest getting the 510s in "Playa" and "Titanic," those are really soft feeling as well -- and provide ample stretch -- so it almost feels like you're not wearing anything at all. Also note that on the newer 510s the pockets are deeper than the first issued ones. For some reason, the pockets on 510s were about half the length size of a normal jean pocket so that made it harder to carry stuff around in your pockets because things would fall out. Maybe Levi's thought that with jeans this tight you couldn't put anything in your pockets anyway? Who knows, but I noticed on the newer issued 510s that the pockets are deeper.

As far as who can wear super skinny jeans and still look good, I think that as long as your body is proportioned you can get away with 510s in whatever size you have to get them in, and it doesn't matter if you're short or tall. I have a friend who can wear a 31 waist but his body is not proportioned, his top half is flat and rectangular and his legs and butt are non-existent (think Sponge Bob Square-Pants) because he's really skinny, and he tried on a pair of 511s and they looked HORRID on him, so I can't imagine what the 510s would look like, even though he can fit into a smaller size than me. So just because you happen to be really skinny, doesn't mean that the skinny fit will look right on you. Likewise, if you're muscular, don't think that you can't get away with the 510s because you don't have a 30 waist. The jeans have some stretch fabric in them so they should fit fine.

I hope Levi's will continue with the 510s and come out with more colors.
