Usually, when I buy Levi's 505 jeans locally, they're sloppily made; uneven seams, hems that curl, etc. I do not buy them from outlet stores for this reason. But lately, even Sears and Macys are sporting what appear to be second-quality goods like you'd find it outlet stores.

Amazon got this one right. These were extremely well made, with straight hems and even seams. Best quality Levi's I have seen in 20 years!
