As good as 501 jeans, without the shrink to fit. They fit like 501 jeans. I feel like I have the jeans on, but I don't. Good job Levis.

No, I do not recommend this product.

SPRING IS ALSMOST HERE.....

I ordered multi shorts for the summer. Usually I go to the mall to tey them on, because sometimes the sizes are off. But this time, all my orders were a perfect size.

501 original hemmed 9" mens' shorts, black

4 years ago
Wore this straight out of the shipping bag. Snug waist (didn't need a belt for once), hemmed cuffs came down just below my kneecaps, moved well, didn't bind when stretching or bending. I am going to be wearing this with the aforementioned Gothic Biker Vest (big trucker jacket) from my last review. With Tripps chains attached to the belt loops and with fishnets and Doc Martens, an old-school club outfit. Again, THANK YOU for a fine product.

Always stylish essential Jean Shorts Originals

I personally own all three of these 501 Originals and they are a must have addition to your wardrobe. Always in style no matter if you’re going for the modern, classic or relaxed look. These essential Jean Shorts will complete all your outfits with a feel good vibe. You know you are wearing quality denim when you’re wearing Levis! #sweepstakesentry
