The most perfect shorts ever! Do haply with the length and fit. I’m 5 foot so they’re just long enough. I’m usually a 25 but I got a 24 and they fit perfectly

I am 5'3'' and 140 lbs and got the 28. I ordered 29, but it was way too baggy. I am very picky when it comes to clothes, but I am in love with these. I wear them everyday with a crop top tshirt and it looks amazing. They aren't too short or tight and fit just right especially if you are a mom. I bought the bees knees color and would buy another color.

These ran incredibly small. 33s are usually big on me and these I couldn’t even come close to buttoning. I’m so disappointed! otherwise they’re pretty perfect. Love the style and the length! Just size up.

I bought my usual jean size. These were very stiff and snug the first day of wear but soften up and loosen after a couple of days! These are my new favorite shorts because they are high waisted AND have a longer inseam. So glad to have found cool looking long shorts.

These are so cute but so very small. I couldn’t even get them up over my thighs and I wear a size 6 normally. I’m so disappointed. They just arrived and already sealed up to be returned.

Love these shorts! I got my regular size which is a 25 and they didn't feel tight or uncomfortable at all.

These shorts are not properly sized. I own a few other pairs of Levi's and know my size. These are 2 sizes too small

So I love Levi’s and I have a pair of distressed cut off shorts so I thought why not buy another (less distressed). But these were very unflattering, made me look frumpy. I’m 5’5 136 ordered 28 fit was good but style was not good. Loved the length loved the hi rise but together it didn’t work.

Wasn't sure it would fit, but was pleasantly surprised. Love the 1% stretch, it still feels and looks like premium denim. Love, love, love, can't express that enough!!!!

The black color is very TTS. The length is very flattering and the distressing is super cute. My favorite shorts of the summer for sure.

Runs big, size down at least 1 full size. I’m 5’2 105lbs, I ordered 23w and after a couple hours of wear the waist becomes way looser. Soooo cute tho and after washing they drink back to original size.

Bought these after searching everywhere for black denim shorts that weren't *too* short and I'm happy with the purchase. I know exactly what size I am in Levi's. Even though these say they're no-stretch, these do stretch out almost a full size while wearing. I'll wash in hot water to shrink back. I trimmed the bottom edges because I'm just too old to appreciate all that fringe, and I'm sure I'll have to do that again after washing.

These shorts worked out great for me. I'm 5'2" and weigh about 100lbs, so on the petite side and got a size 24. The shorts hit my mid-thigh and fit my waist just fine. Looking forward to wearing them in a little more.

Extremely comfy and stylish! I’m 5’1 and was worried that these would be too long and look silly on me, but they still look trendy and cool. I weigh 105 lbs and got size 25 and they fit perfect.

True to size and exactly as pictured. I’m 5’8 long legs and this is such a great length! I imagine if you’re shorter they may be too long

These are so cute! The legs don’t flare out weirdly and the overall fit would be excellent if they didn’t run so so small. I typically wear a 12 and a 32 & 33 are tight/uncomfortable.

I think these are the perfect jean shorts. I love the high waist and they are long enough that my butt isn't hanging out. I usually do one roll on the leg but can roll twice and they still aren't too tight on my thighs. I don't generally like button closures but a zipper would create a big crotch bulge when you sit down. I just bought my second pair, my first pair ripped shortly after I got them in a very random place - a 3 inch tear vertically next to the button fly. Not sure why they would rip there, it's not a seam or anything. I assume it had something to do with the distressing. Hopefully this next pair holds up a little better because they are otherwise perfect. I'd say they fit true to size and tend to loosen up throughout the day as you wear them then shrink back down a little bit after washing. I am 5'5" 125lb and bought a 26 which is my normal size in Levi's.

Fit well in hips but too big in the hips. Should have been high rise but ended up being mid to low rise because of large waist.
