Yup! I love it. I was going to get the navy one too but they didn't have the 34 in the jacket and it looks a bit like denim material so I passed.

i was also looking at those earlier...reviews look pretty good on the site...looks like they just run a little big. i'd say they'd be a good cheaper alternative to the black clarks db's.

All black isn't that versatile. I'd go with the sand color instead

I bought those 511s from the local UO. They have 3 colors, the khaki shade I bought, the navy one that I also bought, and a lighter khaki..sand shade.

for the fellas with big thighs/calves etc. how many sizes up did you go up on the 511's? I tried some on the other day in my natural waist size that I wear in the 514's and I couldn't even get it up my thigh lol.

How tall are you wj4? Those 511 you're wearing, did you need to size up like what other ppl here are doing?
I'm about 5'10''. Yes, I sized up to a 31. I usually wear 30. I couldn't even fit a size 30 on 511s up my legs.

What are some regular/casual tees you guys would recommend for someone tall? im 6'2 but im pretty skinny so i need something thats not too short, yet not wide either. Everything is usually big AND tall.

How do you keep it from wrinkling? When I saw that suit at the store, the material scared me away. If you get into a car, by the time you come out it'll look completely different ...

beeswax imo seem to be the most versatile color.

Yea, I don't think I could wear 511's. I tried them on before, and they don't make it up my legs lol or they look painted on.
I'm in decent shape, I'm 6'2 and wear size 32, but my calves, thighs are too big for them. What other slimmer fits would probably work? 514s? I usually just wear my 501s but they're not that slim.

Yea I got both pairs, I wear the beeswax more, but sand is a lot easier to find.

[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]What a lot of people (myself included) is to size up on the 511's. Makes them fit like 514's but slimmer.

The tie depends on the color of shirt you wear. I'd recommend a solid knit tie ... but again i cant recommend a color till you figure out your shirt.

Not high fashion or anything, but try Target. I think the brand is Mossimo. I'm 6'4 190 and they fit me pretty well, not short, not baggy as you mentioned.

rfx, i think levi's owes you some money for your unintentional marketing. i don't remember anyone looking for or asking about those 511 pants until you posted a few pics of you wearing them. i like to call it the influence of nt fit pics.

my 511's have broken in a bit and now fit a little nicer...when i first got them, it was hard to fit in them (in the leg opening area)...but if you can't fit in those, 514's are your best bet...definitely fit better than 501's.

My own personal rules:
-ALWAYS when wearing a tie, a sweater, a cardigan, a sweatervest or a jacket.
-NEVER when it's a t-shirt of any sort.
-Most of the time when it's a button-down shirt. Depends on the cut of the bottom- if it's long and round it's meant to be tucked, but if it's a shorter and more straight cut you can leave it untucked.
-Polos can be tucked if there's not a lot of extra material at the waist so the shirt won't balloon out at the sides, and the shirt is a bit long at the bottom so there's enough to tuck. I personally don't tuck mine but it does look good if it's pulled off correctly. You gotta be fit and the shirt has to be very close fitting.
