Levis store in the outlet defo have 501's
I got a couple of pairs of 501s there, worn away in the undercarriage after about six months though. Very annoying considering you pay for them to last.

This is what I meant by they might not have 501's. They sell what they get sent rather than order in what is selling. You take pot luck with the stock they have in.

A lot of the stuff sold is manufactured specifically for Outlets so when you buy a pair of Hilfiger jeans, you are getting a pair of Hilfiger jeans but a lower quality to that which you'd pay top price for at a normal shop.

If you want decent jeans then it's Diesel you're after.
Actually, saying that, I have got a pair of fake D&G jeans that I bought in Bali for £5 that have lasted years (yours for £2.50)

I've still got the very first pair of levis I bought from the outlet in Swindon. 7 years of hard wear and nothing untoward. I've bought others since and similarly had no problem.

I've still got a couple of pairs of Hilfiger jeans kicking about from when I used to work there (about 12 years ago).

It's run by idiots - both on the political side (councillors) and the executive side (council upper management). We have precisely the town, and the town centre, that we deserve given the calibre of dickhead we continue to put in charge. Simple.

True... also Swindon voted for Brexit. A recent think tank report said that Swindon will be one of the urban areas in the UK, hardest hit by Brexit in terms of lost investment. Swindon is largely a low wage or no wage economy, highly dependent on unskilled migration from the EU.. fund managers are not going to front up mega bucks in the present climate.
