Great basic short

a month ago
I really like these shorts. They rise at my belly button and fall just below my buttocks. They are comfortable and move with me; I don’t feel any restriction. 5,2” 115lbs and took my regular size of 25.

Perfect shorts

a month ago
Fantastic shorts!! Glad I finally got a white pair. I thought that maybe the 2 1/2 inseam might be too short, but it's perfect. I only buy 501's because the fit works for me

Size up but absolutely love the fit!

2 months ago
I’ve been looking for Jean shorts for months now and found these gems online. The Levi’s I own pants are all size 28 so of course I order as such but unfortunately I should have read the reviews further and seen the need to size up 1 or 2 times. I was able to return them in the store. Thankfully, so because although sizing up once for the Midnight Dark wash was sufficient, I had to size up twice for the Disco Nights White to fit the exact same way🙃 5’7 140lbs. I love the fit and look of these classic shorts.
