Really nice shorts but not if you had a butt!

5 years ago
Really nice shorts, loved them when I tried them on however, after going out in them for a walk the just rise up my bottom which is not flattering! Really disappointed as there's nothing I can do.

Too short in the back!

5 years ago
If you have any backside to speak of, these aren't for you. I'm not even particularly curvy (27" waist, 39" hip) and these just did not keep me covered at all! If you're less curvy than me (or don't mind being kinda exposed) these would probably be really nice, but if your measurements are similar to mine I'd look elsewhere.

Cute, but not for the tall girl

5 years ago
I love love ribcage jeans, they fit my waist, thighs and butt--a feat all other jeans fail to do. So needless to say I saw these shorts on sale and bought both colors, however they're cut too short!! I am 5"9 and 145lbs with a 27.5in waist, and these shorts were scandalously short, but the 28 in wasit fits like a dream. I still stand by this cut! I'm just sour they don't work for my body... I will admit that I have a higher waist than most people (American Apparel "high waist" come up below my belly button) but I still think these run mad short for tall people.

Zero Stretch

5 years ago
The material seems sturdy but if you got a booty or an athletic build, these shorts don't have any stretch to them which makes them uncomfortable to sit down in. Wanted to love them because of high waist but they just didn't work.

Not as advertised!

5 years ago
The two washes that I purchased, Urban Oasis and Charleston Chill, both fit great and true to size (like a glove)! Here’s the issue: the Charleston Chill wash is incorrectly advertised which is a huge bummer. On the site, it is shown with a finished hem... what you really get is a raw hem. I reached out to customer service about this and provided all the product numbers (style number, PC9 number, etc.) to verify that I hadn’t made a mistake. They confirmed that I received the correct pair, but this “may very well be a defect”. Also, they stated that they could NOT guarantee a non-defective, finished-hem pair upon exchange. Um, how does that work? Anyways, based on others’ reviews, looks like all shorts in Charleston Chill wash are “defective”. Or, the photo shown needs to be updated to accurately depict what the customer is actually receiving.

Terrible sizing

a year ago
Be sure to size up at least 1 if not 2 sizes!! I followed the size chart and ordered my usual size (which is the same in the ribcage jeans that I love and fit perfectly.) But these couldn't even fit up my thighs and were more than an inch smaller in the waist than they claimed to be.

I wear a 30 in the ribcage pants (and LOVE them!) but could barely get the 30 in the ribcage shorts over my hips! Very disappointed. And, extra disappointed because the larger sizes were sold out by the time I got my order.

Cute until you wear!

3 years ago
I loved these when I tried them on. I usually only buy vintage Levi's and these seemed great. Unfortunately, after wearing these out and about and sitting/ walking in them they had horrible wrinkles, seemed extremely loose and baggy, and the quality already seemed to degrade. Extremely disappointed! Will only buy vintage Levi's again from now on because the quality seems to et much worse.

I ordered big because people say it runs small. Size 34 arrived and it measured 36. Way too big. Overall even if it fits, ribcage is too hippie and wider legs than 501. I returned and got 501 shorts size 32 instead and love it

Seams were already coming undone upon opening

I liked the wash of the jean but the seams on the right side were coming undone already the day I got them in the mail. For the price, the stitching on the sides of the jean was very poor quality so I returned them

Disappointed in Levi's

5 years ago
I bought 2 of the same shorts in black. I measured them. One is a 35" hip and the other is 2 inches smaller in the hip. The waist measurement is consistent for both. Levi's, don't do this. Please make your sizing consistent. Every Levi's review I've read states that the sizing is inconsistent. Help me understand why you haven't addressed this yet? Step up.

Acabo de recibir el pedido hoy, los pantalones sientan bien, y son tal cual la foto, pero la etiqueta del bolsillo posterior viene defectuosa y no pone levis (adjunto foto). Espero, que por parte del equipo me den solución. Ya que estás pagando un precio por una marca y no aparece tal marca.

Did not get the short that was advertised

I ordered the hemmed ribcage short and instead recieved a short with a different wash and cutoff legs. I typed in the SKU number and it brought up this short. It seems like there is a manufacturing error... I am pretty upset because I was stoked to get these for spring/summer!
