These Levi’s 501 high rise shorts have quickly become one of my favorite summer denim. The design is classic and timeless, featuring the iconic Levi’s denim look. The length is just right, the fabric feel durable and high quality. They are comfortable with every day activities, running errands, casual outings or summer vacations. ✨❤️

I’m usually not a huge fan of a button fly but these fit so perfectly and I really love the wash. Levi’s button fly is also a lot The easier to button than other brands I’ve worn. Every time I try denim from a different brand I always come back to Levi’s because I am never disappointed.

The jean shorts are super, super comfy! They aren’t too tight or too loose — they fit just right. So far, I haven’t seen any color changes after washing them. The color has stayed the same. They also have lots of pockets, which is super useful. They have 2 in the front and 2 in the back! I will be recommending these Jean shorts to my friends!😉

Material is great and feels comfy. They are definitely shorter but cute to wear for a winery or time out! Size is as expected. Definitely worth the buy!

These are the perfect length and fit. I'm 5'4/140 lbs and the size 28 are perfect. They're short without being *too* short and I need a pair in every color.
