I'm in a Levi's store picking up some jeans.

So confusing.

Cuts are 505 regular, 514 straight, 501 original, 541 athletic, 559 relaxed straight. That doesn't even include the womens' 7XX cuts, there's a dozen of those.

Finishes are torn up, khaki, original, white, black, black goose, rigid shrink to fit, clean rigid, rinse, just lived in, rusted rivet, dark stonewash, spring wash, and I ran out of patience.

I have always gotten 501. But they hurt my thighs if I happen to ride a bike in them. So I tried the 541. Not sure who has the thunder thighs that would be necessary to fill those. A 501 with some stretch would be perfect. Can't find them.

Color? So many finishes. Too complicated!. I'm looking for plain old black.

I won't even look in the other jeans stores. This is already taking way too long.

There needs to be a way to subscribe to jeans. Every year, have a couple pairs automatically sent to you, like a magazine.
