Favorite pair of shorts now!

15 days ago
I am absolutely loving my new Levi's shorts! The fit is perfect and the color is great. Levi's is my go-to brand for jeans, so I knew I had to try their shorts, and they did not disappoint. I also really enjoy the button-up option instead of a zipper. I've never owned a pair of pants with this feature before, and I'm really happy with it so far. They are so cute!

Perfect “mom” shorts

These shorts are the perfect length! No worrying about riding up or showing everything when bending over. Super comfortable and well made.

Perfect length.

2 months ago
Perfect length and I like that they hug your legs and don't flare out. I normally wear a size 30 and bought a 33. I could have gone with a 32 and they would have fit perfectly. I like the size 33 they are loose and comfortable.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Perfect shorts

Love these! Perfect fit and so light and comfy. I'm 5'11" with most of my height in my legs and these hit me just above mid thigh, perfect length not too long and no booty cheeks hanging out! Definitely worth purchasing!

Perfect shorts!

Best shorts! So soft and comfortable, and the perfect high rise. I am 5’1 and these are a little higher than mid thigh and very flattering! I have a size 28 in wedgie jeans and took a 29 in these although I know different washes can fit differently.
