My Favorite Shorts!

11 days ago
My favorite shorts! This is actually my second pair of the 501 mid thigh shorts. They fit comfortably around the waist and are not tight across my thighs. They are super flattering. I’m a long legged 5’6” and they really are mid thigh. I can bend over and be a busy mom without tugging or worry about my rear end. I 100% recommend! True to size. I wear a 27 or 28 in Levi’s and chose a 28 each time for a little extra room and comfort.

Great shorts

Love that these shorts are mid thigh because they don’t ride up which is a problem for me when shopping for shorts. I am 5’0 and these hit me at a comfortable spot along my thigh. I am usually a size 25 in levi and these shorts are true to size for me.

Levi's Premium 501 Mid Thigh Shorts - Odeon

a month ago
Could not be more happy with these shorts and grabbed them at an unbelievable price. Review feedback said they fit somewhat small. I wanted a looser fit so I was disappointed that size 27 was sold out. I went with my usual size 26 and am relieved that they are not tight. I am 5'7, 120 lbs. Love the button up fly and premium leather Levi tag.
