Love them. Run small so size up. Worth every penny
a year ago
Love the style, the fit and length is perfect. These do run small so size up 1 or 2 sizes. Im normally a waist 32 in 511 jeans with using a belt so they dont sag down over time but in these 501 shorts im comfortable in a 34 with using a belt also. I recently ordered a 33 as well and they fit without a belt but just a hair snug. Me personally, up 2 sizes from normal and use a belt should be perfect for comfort.
The color is perfect, i cant say anything on washing and fading as i have not washed them after 2 uses to preserve the denim as long as possible.

The 501 9inch hemmed jeans were a great fit for me. I'm 5' 4' so the shorter length is what I prefer. As always Levi's are the best look and fit.
