Great everyday shorts!

22 days ago
These Levi’s shorts are comfortable, flattering and perfect for warm weather. The lightweight fabric feels soft and breathable, while the mid-thigh length provides great coverage without feeling too long. They fit true to size and pair easily with any casual outfit. A great staple for summer.

Lightweight and versatile!

27 days ago
I am excited to receive these shorts for review. I will be using them all summer long. Overall, these are a great quality and fit better than expected. I was a little bit nervous because these are listed as high waisted. I am only 5‘2“ and jeans that are high waisted are generally not comfortable for me. That is not the case with these. While they do go just above my belly button, they have a little bit of stretch and it doesn’t feel uncomfortable. As a bonus, it gives a little more coverage in the back. Being so short, it seems most shorts I have are either too long and I have to roll them up or they are too short. These are the perfect mid lengths. They are just past my fingertips. Still long enough that I could roll them if I would want to, but I will probably wear them as is. These shorts also have a button fly. I feel like the buttons will help the front of the jean material stay flat. Sometimes the zipper fly on shorts warps a bit over time and I don’t think that will happen with these. While these are jean material, they are very lightweight. They also have a little bit of stretch. For someone like me who is exactly at my size and borderline between sizes, this is great. They stretched just enough to be able to comfortably button them and for someone close to my size but a little bit smaller than shorts would fit them as well. I feel these shorts are a very good value and I will consider buying another pair. They will be my go to for baseball games, days at home, and days at the lake. They could be dressed up if you have a more casual event like a neighborhood party, or be worn for everyday. Very versatile, and my new favorite find!

Highly recommend these amazing shorts.

Amazing shorts. I was unsure at first, as I didn’t want them to be baggy on my legs, like so many shorts are now. But I was very pleased when they arrived. They are comfortable. The length is perfect. And they hug your body in all the right places. I now want them in every colour. Highly highly recommend.

VEGAS BABY!

3 months ago
My wife and I were traveling for my work to Vegas and we had poorly underestimated the weather. We packed only cold clothes and she needed shorts. We picked these up at the Cesars Palace mall and she was in love with them instantly! Great fit for a great price!

Absolutely love!!

6 months ago
Absolutely love these! They are all buttons and no zipper though so just as a warning. I think they look cute but the no zipper was a little weird to me at first. They’re high waisted AND mid thigh which I feel is typically hard to find so definitely love that.

Timeless Shorts With the Perfect Fit

9 months ago
These 501® Original Mid-Thigh Shorts are such a staple piece. The denim feels sturdy yet soft, and they hold their shape throughout the day. I love that they hit at just the right length—not too short, not too long—making them super versatile for casual days or dressing up with a nice top. The classic Levi’s fit hugs in all the right places and gives that effortless, vintage vibe. A true wardrobe essential that I’ll be reaching for all summer long!

Favorite pair of shorts now!

10 months ago
I am absolutely loving my new Levi's shorts! The fit is perfect and the color is great. Levi's is my go-to brand for jeans, so I knew I had to try their shorts, and they did not disappoint. I also really enjoy the button-up option instead of a zipper. I've never owned a pair of pants with this feature before, and I'm really happy with it so far. They are so cute!

Could be more curvy friendly

7 months ago
The fit was okay. My hips and legs are MUCH larger than my waist, and I feel like these shorts didn’t fully capture my curves ratio because of it. However, they are high quality and very cute!!
