Worth the buy!!
Size: 26 Color: Luxor Heat - Light Indigo (Non-stretch)
I LOVE these shorts!! I have 4 variations of them and I seriously wear them almost everyday. They are so comfortable yet still thick and durable. They hold their shape even after many washes. I bought them on sale so worth it for sure! They are a staple in my wardrobe at this point!

Love 501
Size: 29 Color: Luxor Heat - Light Indigo (Non-stretch)
I love the 501 shorts. I have a different pair but I have the mid thigh length. I ordered these thinking they were the same. NOPE! Way too short for me. But they’re super cute for the young gals

Love these shorts. Definitely run small.
Size: 29 Color: Luxor Heat - Light Indigo (Non-stretch)
I read that these shorts run small and to size up, so I did. They fit. Slightly snug, but they fit. I prefer a looser fit when it comes to shorts, particularly cut offs. So if you’re anything like me, I’d size up by 2 for this pair of shorts. There is no flexibity with the fabric, even wearing them all day they don’t lose their shape or stretch out. So depending on your preference I would take that into account when picking sizing. ... show more

Cute - SIZE UP
Size: 33 Color: Luxor Heat - Light Indigo (Non-stretch)
these are super cute and look very flattering but they run SMALL. I used to wear 32s in Levi’s but lost 30 pounds this year so I ordered a size down and they didn’t fit at ALL. I reordered a size 33 and they still fit tighter. My Levi jeans in a 32 barely stay on me anymore but these are snug in a 33. They’re still super cute and comfy, guess it gives me room to size down into them for awhile lol ... show more

Favorite Summer Shorts worn on repeat
Size: 31 Color: Luxor Heat - Light Indigo (Non-stretch)
These are my favorite shorts for summer. I have several pairs that I wear on repeat because they’re comfortable, flattering, and hold up really well. I ordered a size up from what I already have since I’m postpartum, but I ended up not needing it—my original size still fits me best. So I did return these, but only because of sizing, not the product itself. I do suggest sizing up 1 size from your normal size. I usually wear a 29 and have these in a size 30 and they fit great. They are a true jean material and not strechy. Highly recommend these if you’re looking for a reliable, go-to pair of denim shorts. ... show more

Cute/Flattering but Uncomfortable
Size: 32 Color: Luxor Heat - Light Indigo (Non-stretch)
I feel like "cute/flattering but uncomfortable" is the tagline I could use for pretty much every pair of Levi's I've tried, minus the stretchier styles. To start, I got these in both a SIZE 32 and 33 in the color LUXOR HEAT. I'm anywhere between a size 8-12 with a 31" waist and 43" hips, give or take, but I always feel like I have to size up in Levi's. True to form, I would not have liked my true size 30 or 31 in these, so I'm glad I went up. I ended up keeping the size 32 (pictured), as the 33s were way too baggy. I could probably have done a 31 but I like having a little extra room for my thick thighs and big butt. Keep in mind these do have the button fly, like all the 501 styles do. I personally hate button flys, but I wanted to give them a shot anyway. These shorts are adorable on - I feel really cute when I wear them and my butt looks great. However, they are pretty uncomfortable. This jean material is what I'd consider a classic, sturdy fabric with almost zero stretch, though I will say the Levi's Premium fabric is softer than the Original. These do not conform to your curves much, though I'm sure wear will eventually soften the denim (or you can search for tricks to soften them, like I eventually did). If I'm walking around or standing, I don't really have complaints, but I would probably not wear these in a situation where I'll be sitting very much. On that note, if you have thicker thighs, these shorts feel like they're going to cut them off when you're sitting. I was a soccer player for a long time so have always had larger thighs, and this is one of the reasons I've never loved wearing short-shorts, because they cut into my thighs. The edge of the fabric just digs in while you're sitting, even with these cut off styles. I'd recommend these to someone who likes a stiffer denim and/or has skinny thighs, or someone who just doesn't care, but I find myself super self-conscious sitting in these, so I don't reach for them much. I kept them because there are situations I'd still wear them, plus I just needed shorts. I much prefer my Levi's Premium 501 Mid Thigh Shorts in the same size. ... show more

Perfect Classic Denim Shorts
Size: 26 Color: Luxor Heat - Light Indigo (Non-stretch)
These 501 shorts are everything I wanted in a classic pair of cutoffs. The denim is sturdy but softens up after a few wears, and they hold their shape without stretching out too much. The length is just right—not too short but still flattering—and the high rise makes them super versatile with crop tops or tucked-in tees. A timeless style that feels like it will last forever. Definitely worth it. ... show more
