The tub minimizes color loss because the threads aren't being agitated like they would be in a washer.
P.S. Woolite Dark.

The 527 is the closest as far as strictly thigh opening is concerned (I believe the 557 is akin to the 559 in that department) but the difference is going tobe in the rise of the jean. Both the 557 and the 501 is what levis calls a "regular rise" which means it is intended to sit at the actual waist. The527 is a "low rise", so it is going to sit considerably lower on the hips. It all depends on it that matters to you, but the 527 is going to sitpretty low. I don't mess with bootcut jeans at all, but I know that the difference between my LVC 501s and the few pairs of 511s that I own is night andday. I don't sag my jeans at all really, but with the 511 I feel like my pants are falling down all day.

Thanks.
I actually tried on some 527s before and I thought the rise was around 9 inches for a 32 waist. I was surprised on how it's tighter than a RnR Henlee (RnRsare brutally known to have low rise, 9 inch rises from 31-33 waist).
I think I'm better off sizing up on the 527s and stick to my natural size on 501s.

Those are amazing. I am generally prone to buy LVCs as opposed to japanese 501 repros just out of a probably misguided brand loyalty, but the more pictures Isee of worn samurais the more I think that the heavy texas cotton denim they use is the TRUTH. This is a perfect example of why spending $300 on a good pair ofjeans > spending $100-200 on a pair of Nudies/APC. I challenge anyone to show me a pair of cheaper denim with similar wear that doesn't have horriblecrotch/back pocket blowout. It just doesn't happen.
There is still something about that red line selvage Cone denim that Levis traditionally used though. It is significantly thinner, but so nice and so slubby.Besides sugarcane, I've yet to see another company duplicate the look really.
