Perfection

Love these! I am 5ft 90lbs and it was hard to find a pair of shorts that fit me. After months of searching I pulled the trigger and ordered a size 23 online bc I can’t find that size anywhere in stores. So happy I did! Fit great and look great. Love the quality can’t wait to get more.

Levi shorts - summer staple

8 months ago
Gorgeous shorts! They fit really well and I love them so much I now have two pairs. At 5’2, I find them on the shorter side, but that actually makes my legs look longer—which I prefer. Levi’s never disappoint; these have been a summer wardrobe staple for me

Yes, I recommend this product.

The PERFECT Jean shorts

8 months ago
I’ve had Levi shorts for over 13 years and decided to replace them with new ones. These are slightly higher and the back of the shorts is slightly longer than the front which makes them very flattering. Wash well. Wear well. Feel like they’ll last ages. I’m a 10-12 and bought a size 30.

Yes, I recommend this product.
