  They do look similar, but they're very tight and low rise in the waist and hips. I usually wear a 32x29 jeans and I had to try on a 36x32 501's before they fit comfortably and resembled the look of the 306's. But even then, they were too tight in the hip area and looked very unflattering.
  
  The 501's are a great color alternative, but you need the right body to make them work.
  
  Levi's European website has a similar color called 506 Rite White. I don't know how well they fit but they look similar to the 501's and unike the 501, the 506 has a zipper fly.

  Those Levis are very bright white whereas the QoS style were cream coloured.
  
  The best alternative I have found are the Hackett trousers as posted in my first post on this subject.
