Jeans were supposed to be original 501 "shrink to fit". They were soft, like prewashed, softer material, different leather patch on back (different ink color and format), different stitching (single stitched inseam). They are definitely counterfit. Sent them back to retailer for refund. Purchased from Zappos on the internet. They are supposedly a reputable retailer... Order number was 176451649.
