Levi's 514 Straight Fit Corduroy Pants in Khaki
Levi Strauss & Co. · Clothing & Accessories > Men's Pants
Era / Decade
2010s; based on the modern black synthetic back patch and white tab branding used for specialty fabrics like corduroy and twill during this period.
Material
Likely 98-100% Cotton or Cotton-Elastane blend; fine-wale corduroy/twill texture with a black faux-leather or coated paper back patch.
Condition
Good to Very Good; visible light pilling and surface wear common with corduroy. Significant dye transfer or staining is visible on the lower pocket area which may impact value.
Demand Level
Moderate; 514 is a staple fit but khaki corduroy/twill is less 'hot' than vintage 501s. Steady demand for workwear and casual office wear.

Selling Guide

eBay or Poshmark; these platforms are best for staple Levi's styles. Facebook Marketplace is a good domestic option to avoid shipping fees on lower-margin items.
Selling Tips
Always provide actual measurements (waist and inseam) as Levi's can shrink. Highlight the 'Straight Fit' in the title. Treat the stains with a mild detergent before photographing to increase the 'Condition' rating.
