Soft feel, flattering fit
4 months ago
This is my first pair of Levi’s and I have been convinced the price tag is so worth it!!! I sized up one size and got a 32 rather than a 31 (size 12, which is my usual size). It was slightly snug but it stretches out comfortably throughout the day. It has a very soft feel to it, and is soft against my skin. I don’t have much of a behind, but it hugged my hips and curves perfectly. I was shocked to find not one button and a zipper, but six buttons! Which, I will say, are a little difficult to fasten with long nails. All in all, I would purchase another pair (but may size up to a 33).

Great length and color. Rigid denim with button fly has great fading and style. Wears well with summer sweater, slouch socks for a laidback preppy vibe.
