To be totally honest, I saw a picture of myself with my 1.5 year old son and I was shocked at how bad my previous shorts looked. I decided it was time for some longer shorts for this new era haha! These are way softer than my other Levi’s and super comfortable. I am wearing my normal size 25s and the fit is perfect.
