The verdict
Fit
The 701 Student Fit is roomy through the hip and thigh with a straight leg. As a 90s piece, fit will vary; order true to vintage Levi's sizing and allow for possible shifting over decades.
Quality
Period Levi's are durable; actual longevity depends on the piece's provenance and care history.
Is the price fair?
At $425, you're paying for rarity and curation in a niche fit category. Fair only if the 701 Student Fit is exactly what you seek.
Best for
Fit specialists and collectors hunting specific 90s Levi's models you can't find in new retail.
Care
Vintage fabrics need gentle, infrequent washing to preserve color and structure.
What owners report about Re/Done jeans
Owners report rigid, heavyweight denim that holds its shape through repeated wear and washing, with a fit that hugs the waist and seat and relaxes through the leg. Reviewers describe the jeans as comfortable straight away with no break-in needed, and the free lifetime repair policy (owner pays shipping) comes up as a plus. Complaints are smaller-scale: some wearers get lower-back gapping that needs tailoring, the button-fly hardware can feel flimsy over time, and pricing sits at the luxury end.
- Strengths
- Heavyweight denim that keeps its shape after washing and frequent wear, with reviewers reporting no break-in period.
- Watch out for
- Lower-back waist gapping that requires tailoring, flimsy-feeling button-fly buttons, and luxury pricing are the recurring gripes, and reworked-vintage pairs vary more in wash and size than the standard line.
- Sizing
- Reviewers report true-to-size fit with a high rise and long inseams; wearers with slimmer thighs may find the leg loose, and reworked-vintage pairs are less consistent in sizing than the standard line.
