Really cute! True to size!

I don’t usually write reviews, but I wanted to warn everyone not to size based on Amazon suggestion . These are old school, no stretch Levi’s . I normally wear a 2 or 4, xs or s. I sized up to a 4 based on Amazon’s suggestion, and they fit a little roomy. Since they’re original fabric, I’m a little concerned that they’ll stretch out through the day. I’ll update on that after I wear them. I’m fairly straight figured and don’t have a tiny waist compared to my hips, but the waist was roomy too. If you have an hourglass shape, the waist may gap.

Update—these hold shape really well and don’t stretch or sag throughout the day. I can get 2-3 wears between washings. I’m actually glad I got the 4 rather than the 2. They are comfortable from the time I take them out of the dryer to next wash.

They look great but hard to size it

The media could not be loaded.

They do look stunning! I got the Find Time color and it is not your standard light jeans. It’s like almost white pastel light blue. Very pretty. Check my video :) at the end I did fabric close up.
Size hm I am for reference 5’9, 27 waist and 37 hips. Ordered 27. Well hips work somehow the waist is a bit too loose for my liking :(. I wonder if 26 would have been better but they didn’t have it on Prime and I could not wait over 2 weeks.
The holes in it are just the right size. They are comfortable, great quality (like most of Levi’s). Pockets are right size. Good value for the money especially that those were $20 for some reason and other colors for $40 and up! Ha! :)

Very comfy!

Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2024

Thin material that is definitely like jeggings not Jean. Great stretch and comfort. I don’t think they will hold up for years and years, but for the affordability they are great. Color and look matched the picture!

Runs small, very low buttons

Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2024

Ordered these shorts based off size chart and measuring myself with a cloth tape. Arrived and did not fit - could only button two of the multitude of buttons (there is no zipper and the buttons go to near literal crotch territory). Ordered a size up. Those fit very snug on my butt and slightly snug on my thighs, but there is extra room in the waist. It could be a very harrowing day indeed if I even wanted to squeeze my phone in one of the pockets, which is a shame because the pockets are all decently sized/deep. Then I sat down… I have to pull the legs of the shorts up so they are not even touching my legs or else the lack of elasticity and tightness of the shorts on the thighs would probably at best bruise my thighs and at worst split the pants in half. However, the material feels like it’s decent quality, the note of no elasticity wasn’t a complaint, I prefer this. But if a company’s product isn’t going to match their size chart and doesn’t have the wiggle room from a little stretch, it makes the product a lot less appealing or a likely “go to.” The shorts are still comfy when standing, but near impossible to sit in comfortably.
