LEVI’S® FIT GUIDE: MEN’S JEAN SHORTS EDITION
Style /
marzec 2022
Spring is just around the corner so is shorts season–or should we say jorts season? Either way, we want you to stay cool in style. But finding the right short for you is easier said than done, especially when there are so many different right rises, washes, and lengths to choose from. And while many of you may already be familiar with our denim selection, shorts are a whole different ballgame. That’s why we’re bringing you another one of our fantastic fit guides to help you understand the difference between our range of men's shorts styles and find the one that’s right for you so you can free the knee.
412™ Slim Short
Slim, but not too slim, the 412™Slim Short is designed with a skinny-but-not-too-skinny fit that plays straight man to whatever you want to pair with it. This men's slim shorts offers a mid-rise that sits comfortably at your waist while a cotton blend with TENCEL™ lyocell and elastane makes for a super soft hand feel and a stretchy, moves-with-you-not-against-you kind of fit. An extra bonus: TENCEL™ lyocell is sustainably made from plant fibers for an eco-friendly twist on a staple silhouette. This spring, we’re pairing this with a modern color-blocked t-shirt and some classic sunglasses for an upscale cool guy vibe.

405 Standard Short
There’s a reason we call it the 405 Standard–this all-around reliable short literally sets the standard for a no-fuss jean short. A 99% cotton, 1% elastane denim hits the perfect balance between stretchy and structured, while our iconic 5 pocket styling and an easy zip fly keep things classic. Pair this easy go-to with a polo or button down for a fancier feel or go with an essential tee and a baseball cap for the most timeless of looks.

501® '93 Short
We always like to think of the 501® ’93 at the 501® with a slouchy skater boy twist–so why would its shorts counterpart be any different? The edgy 501® ’93 short is made with a roomier fit through the hip and thigh for a low-slung throwback feel. A raw edge hem makes it look like you crafted these cutoffs yourself when in actuality we did all the work for you. (You can thank us for that later.) We love the idea of pairing these with a graphic tee or a patterned tank then topping off the look with a bucket hat for that effortless vintage look.
