Perfect shorts for moms of toddlers, soft and comfortable
4 days ago
Love the fit and feel of these. Theyre a really high quality soft denim, fit snug in the waist so they don't sag down but relaxed fit in the thigh so you can still move around. I also love the wash on these, nicely colored, dark but not too dark, perfect for spring and summer.
I chase around 2 toddlers all day, we go so many play places and the park and these will for sure be a summer staple!!

These are high-quality Levi’s jean shorts. I like that they are high rise. The only thing I don’t like it that the jean shorts don’t move. I wear these for short periods of time.

Trendy and cute
6 days ago
The Levi’s 501 original fit high-rise women’s jean shorts are super cute and comfortable. I am on the smaller side so they were a little bit big on me even in the smaller size, but Levi’s are great jeans. I absolutely love them to death. These will last a lifetime no joke.

Still love the cut, but color changed a bit

This is my second time buying these. Love the fit as always, but the color is more grey now compared to the deep black of the older version. Preferred the original color.
