Daisy denim a must!

Suuuuper cute! Love the little flowers stitched on. So classic and feminine. I got a 27, my usual, got home and laaaaawd were they too small! I am going to exchange and try for a 29. I know denim gives after a bit and I want them to be comfortable, not tight and riding up with each movement. For reference I’m 5’4” 147 lbs.

Very TTS

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the design. I love the appearance. I love the quality. I did not take a picture because I got a size too small. I thought I could size down one and that was wrong. These are very very TTS!
1 reply from Levi's Customer Service team - 22 days ago
Thanks so much for reaching out. Sometimes, something as small as a change in fabric treatment, finishing, or even color can affect the way a pair of jeans fits! So can a slight change in the composition of the fabric. We're always working to make our fits as consistent as possible, so we'll definitely flag this one. So you know, we have a 30 Day exchange policy where you can exchange your item(s) for a different size, free of charge**.

Amazing quality, super comfy and cute! 👖☀️

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Levi’s 501 Original Shorts. They’re super high quality and durable while still being comfy. The pockets are practical due to their depth. You can style them in so many ways to create various looks. Something I particularly like about these shorts is that the material from the created rips doesn’t just fall out. They’re also super simple to wash. I know I’ll be wearing these jean shorts all summer!

Nice overall fit, but I hate the buttons

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are super cute and I like the overall fit. The pink color is pretty and the denim feels high quality. They are high waisted so I wished I sized up. These shorts also have deep pockets which I appreciate. My biggest gripe is the buttons, they are so inconvenient and the holes for them are way too tight. I can’t even get the second button through so it stays unbuttoned. I wish they used a zipper instead.

Rigid Yet Comfy with a Pretty Muted Pink Wash

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered a size 28 and it fits me well. For reference, I am 5’3” and 138 lbs. My denim collection consists mostly of 100% Cotton and 10% of it has Elastane for stretch (I like to use those pairs for that time of month or AYCE outings). These shorts are very comfortable! They’re 99% Cotton 1% Elastane. They feel rigid with a very slight stretch. What I love about them is its beautiful fading and pretty, muted rose pink wash. The pink is subtle and these shorts look perfectly worn-in. They’re a unique addition to my collection. I’m happy with them and I think I’ve found a new favorite!

Can always trust Levi’s

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are a great option for a pair of lightweight distressed shorts for Summer. They have a button fly which helps keep your stomach supported. Wash well, will continue to wear!

Stylish Denim Shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Levi’s Original Short is beautifully crafted pair of shorts. They are extremely comfortable and stylish. They fit great and have been assembled very nicely. My only gripe is the color of the shorts seem to be a bit off. They are pink dyed blue denim shorts. The blue clashes with the pink a bit. Great pair of shorts.

Comfy and Stylish!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These jeans shorts are super comfy and stylish! They sit well along the waist, fit true to size, and some may say on the shorter size, but perfectly for me. The denim material is the typical light medium blue, which is my favorite jean go to color. The material is durable, and I like the worn rip marks, gives them some character. These jean shorts have a button for vs a zipper, which works for me. Overall, looking forward to the warm weather to wear my new jean shorts!

Super cute and comfortable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never owned a pair of Levi’s before this and I definitely get the hype now. These Jean shorts are not only cute but they are extremely comfortable and flexible. I could see myself wearing these for almost any occasion, they can be dressed up or be more casual. The material is sturdy yet durable. The sizing did throw me off a bit but the sizing chart on the website wasn’t too difficult to use. Overall, I’d highly recommend getting yourself a pair!

Stylishly versatile for summer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love these Levi 501 original shorts. They fit perfectly in Paris so well with many of my cute tops. They’re comfortable, flattering, and true size, which is always a win. Even though the color isn’t something, I usually choose in jean shorts, it actually looks really nice and feel super versatile. I can’t wait to style them all summer long.

Cute

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A super cute pair of shorts. Thick denim fabric. Nice fit and love color. Very comfortable to wear. A high-quality pair of shorts. Tr thing I don't like about these shorts is that instead of a zipper. It has individual buttons.
