My parents might've bought some for me when I was a kid but I sure can't remember ever buying any new Levi jeans myself. I used to really like Lee's jeans until something changed with either the way they they fit on me or the way I fit in them. A while back I tried on some Lee's at the same time as Wranglers. Both brands were the same exact size, but the Lee's were tighter on my waist. I also noticed the front and back pockets were shallower as was the watch/change pocket on the Lee's than Wrangler jeans pockets. I like the double belt loops on both sides of the front of Wranglers, too.
