    They're a slim, boot cut. And, not to mention, Levi's most expensive jean collection.

    the jeans in the pics that i have seen dont look like a boot cut to me.

    Here is something that may be close. They are 501 Premier Finish, Original fit, straight leg.

    Unfortunetley not! I was told that 501 and 514 were supplied to the production but have been unable to get any confirmation on colors - sorry!

    I disagree with you sruzgar as you state that 501 and 514 were supplied, that really narrows it down and supports my suggestion.

    Like I started, the 501 Original - Premier Finishes has a white option. Further investigation I see that it has no dark blue option. 514 and 501 Original - Global comes in dark blue but does not come in white.

    While this is not a confirmation until we see the movie or close up shots, I think it is a pretty good place to start until/unless you can get firm colors/models.

    At the flagship store in NYC we found the 514 in the correct finish AND with white stitching and all the tell tale signs etc...except they were a waist size of 38!! The store manager mentioned they were on clearance because they were from the winter/ fall line!

    I own the white 501's that were posted, so that's one less thing I have to buy. Also, all of the 514's in white that I've seen have a white "Levi's" label instead of a red one.

    bond in levis is nothing new...rogers denim suit from live and let die was levi...i saw it in vegas in 1999 and the brand and the boiling process to get the right colour and shape is mentioned in his lald diary
  • ufboy73ufboy73 usaPosts: 103MI6 Agent
    so, our best guess at this point (in terms of auhenticity but also bearing in mind what is still available for us) is 501 in white and 514 in dark blue?

    That would be my best guess until more specific details are revealed. There may be a winter line that had other color combinations but it appears to be correct as of the current product line.

    does anyone happen to have a good shot of craig wearing the dark blue jeans? i dont recall seeing any pics - i think ive only seen them on the trailer clip. if someone happens to have a good shot of the dark jeans i would appreciate it!
  • jonny-dhjonny-dh Posts: 257MI6 Agent
    After looking at the 514's, I'm sure that they're the "Overhaul" color:

    Looking at the picures again here:

    I'm leaning towards this color:

    What does everyone else think?

    Hi guys,

    I may be totally off pace here, but I managed to grab a nice screen shot from the trailer of the blue jeans Craig wears in the hotel room.

    http://jamesbondlifestyle.com/collections/modules/gallery/data/images/000422.jpg

    I adjusted the colour balance and brightness of the jeans to help with their identification.

    Hope this is of help for the eagle eyed out there!

    Oh and I forgot to say, the picture reminds me of the the view I see in the mirror every morning ;)

    Take care Bond fans and after reading through several posts.......lets be nice to one and other

    Great pic, avekev. Thanks for posting.
    Is that an appendix scar on Craig's torso?

    I have some creamy/beige Armarni jeans which I wear with the Sunspel polo. I will get the Levis as soon as we have all decided which ones they are. Are we agreed yet? Is it the 514s?

    I have now realised that the 514s are not available in the Uk, so I guess I'll have to wait until I am in Miami at Christms in order to get these jeans!!!

    great picture - you know, im starting to doubt those are levi's now. the rivets and the stitching on the belt loops and the pockets look different - of course, could just be the way the picture is making them look, but still...what do you guys think after seeing the enhanced picture??

    I think that you have a point on the 'blue' jeans and deserves further investigation however, I believe the whites are the 501 Orginal Premier jeans.
  • ufboy73ufboy73 usaPosts: 103MI6 Agent
    interesting - in some of the still pictures i had seen of the white jeans (i think from panama when he is cut up, his jacket is ripped up, and he is getting into a car) the leg seems more tapered than i would have thought 501's would be - at least, the bottom of the leg is hugging the top of his boot pretty well.

    i had thought maybe the whites were the skinnier 514's because of this...but maybe he just fills out the legs of the 501's more than me!:)

    I was thinking the same thing but the close up photo on the first page (showing boxers), the low cut is more in line with the 501's. Ideas?
  • ufboy73ufboy73 usaPosts: 103MI6 Agent
    see, i would have thought a lower cut would also have supported the 514 theory - i am pretty sure they sit lower than the 501 (which are more of a standard rise, but not particularly high).

    i tried on some 514's (i think, if i remember correctly) earlier this week and they were pretty low rise jeans
  • The Bond ExperienceThe Bond Experience Newtown, PAPosts: 5,490Quartermasters
    I absolutely agree with you...i think the 514s are the blue jeans we see...lower rise than 501 and even the stitching and placement are closer to the picture.

    but do you think the white jeans are 501 or 514? to be honest, personally, i think the white jeans are definitely levis but am having serious doubts about the dark jeans being levis at all (they may be 514's but i am still really uncertain based on the enhanced pic)
  • gonzalc3gonzalc3 Posts: 77MI6 Agent
    I went tonight to the local levis store and I concur that the 514s slim straight jeans seem to be the onces in the picture. They have also a nice fit....

    I also went to a local nordstrom store and had the ecco berlin shoes.. These are very comfortable. Although they didnt had the exact model they are very nice... I will definetely get a pair of those...
  • The Bond ExperienceThe Bond Experience Newtown, PAPosts: 5,490Quartermasters
    IF the 514s are them, does anyone have opinion on the color...?
  • gonzalc3gonzalc3 Posts: 77MI6 Agent
    they look like the 4010 color

    [edited] I have been in contact with Levi's and this is what they say:

    The light pair:
    Levi’s 514 in WHITE (available in US only)

    The dark pair:
    Original Levi’s 501 button fly jean in TIDAL BLUE (available all over the world)

    Both are available in Levi's Fall 2008 line, which is just hitting stores now.

    so when you say original you mean NOT the slim fit?

    I am checking Levis' US website and am confused what was stated.

    Levi's 514 does not come in white per website. I would assume you mean "powder", Slim Straight 514. I do not see "Tidal Blue" in the 501 series. Please clarify.
  • JB1962JB1962 USAPosts: 194MI6 Agent
    Here's a link to Macys.com that has the 501's in Tidal Blue. Hard to tell by the picture though:

    Sorry, not so super clear.

    The 501 is "already pre washed" according to Levi's.

    And about availability: both are available in the FALL 2008 line which apparently is just hitting stores now, but the white 514 is only available in the USA.
