501® High-Rise Shorts

Women's

I bought the lady gray in size 26, which is what I typically wear in Levi’s shorts. I love the color of the denim, which is prettier and has more variation in person. They do not have a cool frayed hem, but all you have to is wash them once and that will develop. They have a tiny bit of stretch (99% cotton, 1% elastase), which makes them very comfortable. They are way more comfortable than my 100% cotton (no stretch) Levi’s Eat Your Words shorts, which are tight when walking or sitting. Anyhow, these are great and the price is well worth it!

Cute, but not for me. I really wanted to like these. The fringe at the bottom is super stylish, and the washed color is really nice. I just didn't expect these to be as short as they were. I ordered my normal size (26) and it fit okay in the booty area, but a little large in the waist. That's okay as I usually have that issue with high waisted bottoms, I was prepared to get them taken in if I liked them, but they were super short, like booty shorts. My butt was nearly sticking out the bottom. Granted, I have a curvier butt, and your mileage may vary. But for me, the shortness combined with the complete lack of stretchiness made it very uncomfortable. When I sat down in these, my thighs noticeably spilled out from the top. Additionally, the annoyingness of trying to button up the 5 buttons, which I didn't think would bother me, but they are hard to button! They look great in the mirror though. Maybe if I were 18 I could make it work.

They do not have the distressed threading across the front of the thigh like it shows. They are normal jean shorts with no distress to them and some fraying on the edges. They are button up which isn't exactly clear in the description. Like I said, the first picture of these shorts that is shown is not what they actually look like. I also tried them on and they were not too tight, but the front of the left leg immediately split up the middle. I still wore them because I spent so much on them, but the split is about 2 inches long now. The ends of the frays are not sealed, so it will likely continue to split. I hope that I can get a refund

I read the reviews and they were very mixed with too small/too large. I decided to just order my normal size (6/28) and they were very small! Could not meet the buttons so going to order up a few sizes and see if they work. Material has no stretch so these would probably be a no if you love stretch jean.

Cute. High rise and pretty short but they make the butt look good. After I lose some quarantine weight I think they’ll fit perfect. 5’6 130 and I sized up to a 28.
