Perfect and structured

2 days ago
These are sturdy and reasonably thick jeans so they have a nice structure. Moderate amount of stretch. My only complaint is the buttons up - those are a thumb work out to button up and i would prefer if it was a zip for convenience (but the buttons are more secure and do make it cinch and stand nicer). perfect for summer. they fit very true to size so i think next time i will size up for a bit of a looser and casual fit

Great Mom Jean Shorts

These shorts are a great pair to add into my summer rotation. They are sturdy but comfy and will last a long time. I love the length, too. I have long legs, so a longer inseam is a must for me.

These Levi’s black denim shorts fit perfectly and are very comfortable. The material feels durable and high quality, and the black color looks great with everything. They are stylish, easy to wear, and true to size. Highly recommended!”

GREAT SHORTS for everyday use!

17 days ago
the most comfortable shorts I ever tried! I’m usually scared to try jeans shorts because they are either too short or too tight, but these ones have my stamp approval. I do have wider hips and that makes me feel very uncomfortable with shorts. Well, not this time. The fit is amazing and they are so so comfortable. I’ve been reaching out to them daily because they make me look put together, are very nice looking and comfortable. I’ll buy more colors. Loved them.

Classic hit

24 days ago
Child of the 80’s I wore 501’s all the time. Now 5 children later I decided to give them another try after seeing that my daughter had a pair. I LOVE them, I am not the size 4 I used to be but the fit is still super comfy and the length is good for my “not showing my cheeks” liking. I will definitely be ordering more.

I will definitely be buying me another pair of these they are very soft and comfortable.

25 days ago
These shorts are very comfortable they are at finger length. True to the size of the chart. The waistband did not stretch. They were washed a couple of times and kept their color, and shape.

Comfortable, great fit!

Super comfortable. Love the fit and feel. Good length, too. I didn’t pay great attention to the description of the shorts, so just beware they are a button fly, not a zipper!
