good fit + great weight = shorts you never takeoff

23 hours ago
Perfect shorts. The lightweight fabric is ideal for hot summer days, and thick enough to wear through cool evenings. I went on a weekend trip and almost never took them off. They were comfortable in the car journey and for all the walking and relaxing activities.

Yes, I recommend this product.

So worth it

4 days ago
So comfy! I’m a size 32, 5’5 about 170lbs. I usually wear a size 12 to 14 in bottoms. I always have to size up for my hips and then I have a gap in the waist. These shorts fit perfectly & I have no gap! They have a comfy stretch to them and the mid-thigh length is perfect to avoid thigh chaffing.

Super comfortable and versatile denim shorts

10 days ago
I am so pleasantly surprised with these denim shorts! I thought they would feel stiff, which is why I never buy denim shorts, but these felt worn in right out of the packaging. There’s a little bit of stretch to them, which makes them fit like a glove. The coloring is great. And they’re flexible enough that you can roll them or leave them straight, and the roll even stays put— no need to constantly be fixing it! I definitely am not used to a high-rise pants, and I do feel like they bunch a little when I sit, but other than that, they are super comfortable and versatile! I would highly recommend these!

Mooie pasvorm en perfect voor vervormde dijbenen

18 days ago
De shorts is van goed kwaliteit, zelfs na het wassen, de maat klopt perfect en het zit niet te strak, alleen hou er rekening mee dat de knoopjes kleiner zijn dan gewend. Ik heb heel veel moeite om de juiste shorts te vinden vooral omtrent de prijzen, ik koop niet graag kleding dat hoog geprijsd is, maar nadat ik ernstig ziek was geworden en ik te maken kreeg met afvallen en bijkomen waardoor mijn dijbenen vol met vervormingen zat en het mij onzeker maakte, wilde ik geen meer aan. Ik waagde een wanhopige poging met deze klassieke mid shorts en het dekt precies de onderste deel van mijn dijbenen wat mij ontzettend blij heeft gemaakt en ik weer shorts aan kan met dit weer. Vecht je ook met gewichtsverlies/toename met als cellulitis/vervorming in de huid als gevolg, dan is deze shorts perfect voor jou geschikt. Het is wat duurder maar je hebt er wel wat aan. Dank je wel, Levi’s 🫶 Vergeet niet elke dag evenveel van elk stukje van jezelf te houden, hoe lelijk die ook zijn mag, je verdient het. 🌹

Yes, I recommend this product.

Obsessed

20 days ago
I wear a 29 waist and these fit perfectly. The shorts sit right under my belly button (I have a longer torso than I do legs) and the fact the shorts aren’t hemmed makes it easy to have them longer or shorter. Obsessed with these and only wish I had bought more at the time.

Comfortable denim feel and fit

21 days ago
These shorts are great. The fabric is giving and not rigid like some jeans shorts. They are flexible and comfortable for any wear. The button down fly is a nice touch to feel like real jeans. They are solidly built with good stitching and feel durable. After a couple washes they are holding up great.

Great summer shorts

These are super comfortable shorts. There is a bit of stretch but not too much. The length of these shorts is great too, they are the perfect length for me., and I like the color too.
