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.

Love the some stretch washes they’re more comfortable than the no stretch. I’m 5’8” 145 and usually a size 28 leaning 27. The blank spot wash does run 1-2 sizes small(went with size 29). No referee runs true to size or 1/2 size small(went with 28). Disco nights white runs true to size(went with 28). I do wish they made the high rise 501 shorts in a slightly longer inseam option as well, 3.5 inches would be ideal and a lighter blue wash with a clean sewn hem.
