5.0 out of 5 stars Great shorts!
Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2024
I bought these on recommendation and they did not disappoint! They are shorter than they look, but the sides and inseam are longer so they are very flattering. These were true to size although the waistband does not have much stretch at first.

Ladies! These shorts are the ONE! For reference, I have a “toned” physique. (Pilates and weights). So I do have thicker thighs etc. I am usually a 28 in jeans, and based on other reviews, went up a to a 29. These shorts have the perfect “relaxed” fit, and to not have any stretch, are very comfortable. For me personally, I can tell that my usual size would have been a little around the waist but likely doable. Happy with the fit of the 29.

I will say, due to the destruction in the front, they are a bit shorter in the front, but definitely full coverage in the back. Easily could be dressed up or down. I had an outfit in mind: (shorts, heels and a long sleeve satin blouse) and they are super cute w some sexy heels. Still not too short with 3.5 inch heels on. I will be buying another wash!

These shorts are my favorite shorts to wear in the summer, all though they are on the pricey side they do not shrink, the color doesn’t fade and they don’t wrinkle easy. The only thing is if you have smaller hips they are a bit loose around there but not to bad at all, great quality and material. The pockets are very roomy for anything you need to put in them. Overall recommend!

4.0 out of 5 stars Flattering but a little short
Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2024
These are very flattering and true to size. They are a little on the shorter side, fyi. They also don't have a lot of stretch so if you have thicker thighs this is something to keep in mind as it's not super comfortable in the Jeff's when sitting down and it tends to roll up. This might be solved by sizing up. For reference, I'm 5'6 and 160 lbs. I should have sized up but I got them on a really great lightning deal so it's not that big of a deal.

I recently purchased the Levi's Women's 501 Original Shorts and couldn't be more pleased with my decision.
These shorts are incredibly comfortable. The denim has just the right amount of stretch, which allows for ease of movement without sacrificing the classic denim feel.
The high-waisted design is spot on. It accentuates the waist and provides a flattering silhouette. I followed someone else's advice and sized up, and I'm glad I did because the fit is just right.
If you're looking for a pair of denim shorts that are comfortable, stylish, and have that classic Levi's quality, look no further than the Levi's Women's 501 Original Shorts.

3.0 out of 5 stars Bought several pair and all fit differently
Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2024
I bought three pairs of these shorts, and they all fit differently. I bought two pairs with the rips in them, and the split color pair. The ones with the rips were extremely baggy in the legs and crotch area, and I ended up returning them. I purchased my normal size and they were too big, so I went one size down, and the waist fit, but they were still too huge, so I ended up returning those as well. When I ordered the split color shorts, I ordered one size smaller than normal and they fit perfectly. I love them and can't wait to wear them out! They're far less baggy than the ones with the rips in them. It seems like different styles have different fits to them. Also, these are regular denim, so they have zero stretch.

Absolutely love these shorts. The fit is great, the color is just as pictured and they are the best quality. They are short, so you have to be ok with that, but you can't beat how well made they are.
