These jeans are of typical Levi's quality, which in my opinion is among the best for jeans anywhere. But what makes Levis my "go-to" brand of choice >>for my kids<< is the fact that ONLY Levi's offers standard jean models in fully-sized options in kid sizes.

What I mean by that is that I don't have to rely on some cheapo manufacturer's interpretation of what a "size 12" jeans for boys is ... Levi's puts that ACTUAL SIZE on the label in INCHES for both WAIST AND INSEAM which to my knowledge NO OTHER JEAN MAKER does for kid-sized pants.

Yeah, my kids are chubby, I failed as a parent to teach them to exercise sufficiently and eat right, whatever. I just want to buy some effin pants that actually fit them without having to guess at the size. Other standard brands like Lee or Wrangler, and especially ALL of the store brands at stores like Target, Kmart, Walmart, Kohls, etc. only size their kid's pants by "age range" and do NOT provide waist or inseam measurement. From one brand to the next, a 'boys size 12' jean can vary by several inches in both waist and inseam. Heck, the generics/store brands aren't even offered in varying inseam lengths for a given waist size, there's no variation except in quality ... from one day to the next, those cheapo brands vary in quality from mediocre to absolute trash.

I'll keep buying Levi's ... in my view it's worth paying more for quality jeans that fit rather than trying to make do with the cheap generics at the discount stores.
