Cute shorts

It’s a little bit hard to buckle up the whole buttons, but it’s super cute. But looks like size is bit bigger than other jeans. Bought 3 jeans with size 27, only this one is a little bit big.

These are super cute. I love the button fly. I opted to return the 31 and go for a 30 because they stretched when worn and would get lose.

Super cute and good material, but runs tight
6 years ago
I'm 5'1", 106lb. I have a small waist with bigger thights. I typically wear a 24, and that's the size I ordered. These shorts are really cute and look as advertised. They fit really well when I am standing, but it is too tight around the inseam/crotch area when I sit. So much so that it is too uncomfortable for me to keep. I'd like to give it another try, so I just ordered one size up - hopefully that will fit better!

Great Denim

Love the material and style, but if you want it to fit looser like the models, size up.
I ordered a 26”, my usual size, and it fits tighter. Still a super great pair of shorts! Makes your bum look extra cute!

Really cute but runs a little small
7 years ago
I bought these for spring break and they are really cute but if you are like me and have a little waist with big thighs then I would definitely go a size up than what you typically buy. The material isn't stretchy at all so just be mindful of that!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I got the pink ones and the color is so pretty, not to bright, not to pale. I’m normally a 26 and the waist is huge on me. Kinda disappointed about that but I’m still keeping them. Would recommend sizing down. #sweepstakesentry

Didn’t realize these have two stripes
6 years ago
I bought these because my other purchase didn’t fit ( other style) and didn’t realize they have stripes down both sides with the Levi’s logo. The color is really cute. But I wish there was a more clear up close photo with the stripes, I wouldn’t of bought them if I had seen a better photo. The up-close one online strategically cut them out of the frame. will be returning sadly.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Far too big
6 years ago
They're lovely but the sizing is way off. I am normally a 27" (and according to their size chart) so I ordered a 26 and 27 inch. Both were HUGE!
I've had to return them and order the smaller sizes but now probably won't receive them before I go on holiday.

Lekkere broek, maar niet zoals op de foto
6 years ago
De shorts zitten echt heel lekker, en ze staan mooi. Fijn dat ze high-waisted zijn. Maar ze lijken totaal niet op de shorts op de foto - die je krijgt hebben een paar lossen draadjes eraan hangen, i.p.v. de 'versleten afwerking' op de foto

Good, not great!

I ordered a size up like a lot of reviews said. A little too big on the waist and a little too tight on my thighs. I ordered a 29, when I’m normally a 26 just for reference. I’ll still wear them because they aren’t unmanageable, just a little chunky and uncomfortable

Uncomfortable

Cute but literally cannot sit in them they are so uncomfortable. I tried to stretch them but nothing worked it’s actually so annoying. I spent $80 on shorts that won’t stretch and will make ur cooch uncomfortable when sitting down.

Not as expected

I am usually a size 27 but heard these were a bit large so sized down to a 26 instead and there was still extra room on the waist. I wish it were more “fitted” on the waistline so may try to add elastic or take them to get altered. I do like the “vintage” look of these though! Overall, definitely size down!!

Promise me short fraying problem
10 months ago
I bought this product through aritzia and initially was pleased with it. But after washing it only once, the fraying on the bottom went crazy. I no longer like this product, and don’t think that it was worth the money. However, some of the other shorts that are different colours that held up.

Not like the photo
6 years ago
I bought these in 2 different sizes and when they came they looked nothing like the photo. I assumed they sent me the wrong style by mistake so I emailed and sorted it out. They sent a replacement package today and they are the same exact shorts as before. Maybe these are just the correct ones?? They literally look nothing like the photo, aside from being black. No distressing, no chewed hem, and after trying them on they are not as high waisted as the photos.

Different than photo typo in description
7 years ago
Ordered these thinking they’d be the perfect black wash non stretch denim short. (Like notes in the material section, 100% cotton) I always look at the materials used because I hate stretchy denim. These said 100% rigid denim. Once I received them they were way different. No distressing, and stretchy! Beware if you like non stretch rigid denim these are 97% cotton 2% polyester and 1% elastane. I returned these and will repurchase in darkest hour hoping they aren’t as stretchy
