I haven't worn any of the Levi's stuff, but I have 3 pairs of jeans plus some additional stuff from SWRVE and they are the best jeans on or off the bike I've owned. The gusseted crotch makes them super comfortable and doesn't bunch up. That to me is more important then a couple reflectors here and there. The Levi's don't seem to have that, but I've heard great things about the odor-resistant part of them.
