      Ya. Only 514 Altheic fit work in Levis, and even then I have to buy a size too big in the waist so they fit somewhat loose in the thighs.

        Have you considered identifying dimensions/measurements that work for your body type? That way, you can have high confidence that the fit you’re ordering aligns with what works.

        The brands Naked and Famous or Unbranded have fits that accommodate athletic thighs.

          I’ve been wanting to do this, but didn’t think about new was of tailoring. I was imagining having to go to an old school tailoring and drop massive money on custom pants, or continue wearing pants that are too big. Thanks for the recommendations

      Have you found a way to parse what kind of denim they’ll be? I’ve got 7 pairs of 511s with at least 4 weights/mixes of denim. It’s better in store but even at the Levi’s outlet they had 3 types of denim 511s in different color sets.
