In reading many other reviews, I was under the impression that these would run very small. I’ve experienced other Levi’s shorts that did run small, so I originally ordered these two sizes above my normal size. Note that the color was the Pleased To Meet You dark wash. When those were way too big I tried ordering again only one size up and still too big. So I ended up making a third order of my normal size and they fit perfectly. I’m wondering if it depends on the color, which you would have no way of knowing if the color you wanted would run small. I gave 4 starts for lack of clarity on sizing, but otherwise these are great. Super flattering, they are perfectly high waisted and hit at the right spot on the thigh to make legs look slender and long, are a good length but don’t look like Bermuda’s. They’re 100% cotton and do have a little give in the fabric, and aren’t as stiff as I was expecting based on other reviews. Very comfortable. Love the button fly.

I love them so much! 5'9, 175lbs, waist is 33, hips are 45.5 So finding pants can be difficult at times. I looked at all of the reviews which are all over the place, and decided to take a chance on just the sizing chart. I ended up getting a size 34 and I'm so glad I did! They're so comfortable, no pinching when sitting down, no frumpiness. I feel like I might could go to a 33 for a tighter fit, but decided to play it safe.UPDATE: I definitely could've gotten a size smaller for a more snug and tighter fit and would've been fine. But so far I value being able to squat down and bend over without feeling like my internal organs are getting crushed by my jeans.

These were cute and great quality, but they were an awkward length for me! I have pretty short legs and they went down longer than I wanted them to. They fit TTS!

Exactly the type of short I have been looking for! These are a great length and they don’t ride up. Levi is such a great go-to brand. I’m 5’6, 140lbs and I ordered a 27 waist, that’s my usual size. Additionally, they have good stretch and are comfortable to squat down in.

Big fan of these shorts! I was iffy about the longer length at first. After trying them, I realized I liked them so much because 6” bike shorts are my most flattering length, and these are the same inseam. (I’m 5’5” and they hit upper mid thigh for reference).These shorts hug all the right places. The material is a lot stretchier than I was expecting, but still works (97% cotton 3” elastic). I found them to be true to size. I got the white ones and they’re a perfect shade of soft off-white. They are slightly see through, so they will need to be worn with nude underwear… but such is the case with most white pants.I know the longer length inseams are trendy right now, but this style feels timeless and classic. Can’t wait for warmer weather now!

These are good shorts! I am so particular when looking for shorts that it feels nearly impossible to find a pair I actually like. I only like: real cotton denim, a real 5” inseam (not 5” BEFORE a cuff), no holes or distressed hems, and not spending $80 on one pair. I got these on sale for $26 and they’ve been great. I am not a huge fan of the button fly but at least it isn’t bulky and it lays pretty flat.I’d say it runs pretty true to size. . I’m 5’7” and 145lb and ordered what was the equivalent to a size 6 (28?). There isn’t much wiggle room in my hips and the waist is a bit too large, but that’s to be expected with my waist to hip ratio.If it was a regular zipper fly and it fit my waist, these would be a home run for sure. As is, I’m pretty content and have another pair on their way.

So I ordered these in a 29” waist first. They came as a short length light wash rolled hem. I ordered bleached wash mid length frayed hem. So needless to say I was annoyed and disappointed. I returned those for a full refund and reordered in a 30” waist. Although 29 would have fit better the 30 was fine, I tried this as some reviews said they fit snug and no stretch. These definitely have a little stretch but not as much as the first (wrong) pair. Overall I would buy again at the price I got.

I love these levi’s, I’m not a big fan of the cuts that are super short and get sucked into my butt cheeks so these are perfect. They’re super flattering for a longer, Bermuda look. I appreciate that the ends are finished so they don’t roll up and leave dangling threads. A wardrobe must-have!

Let me begin by saying that as someone who has been self-conscious about my legs, I have not worn shorts in at least 15 years (I know, ridiculous, but I'm working on that). It's hot as heck here in FL and figured I needed to get some shorts. I ordered various styles and returned them all...except this one. I am 5'3" and weigh 152 lbs. with big hips and big and not so toned thighs. I ordered these in 30, 31, 32. The 32 fit just right. There is no stretch to this heavy fabric and they felt tight at first, but loosened up a little. They are super forgiving in waist and hip areas since they are higher waisted. The opening to the thighs is ample allowing my thunder thighs to move comfortably. I've washed them twice and though I feared they had shrunk a little, they did loosen up. The crotch area is a little odd as it is high (also causing the shorts to ride up in a little in the bum), but nothing uncomfortable. The length is perfect as it hides my insecurities about my thighs. I am considering ordering in a darker wash and hope that they fit the same (if not better than the first pair). I originally thought the button fly was going to be problematic, but it's been easy to use. I am very happy with my shorts! Wish they were a tad less expensive.

I ordered a size 28 because I wanted the shorts to fit looser in the thighs. Unfortunately the waist was way too big, however I tailored them to make the waist fit better and they are comfy.
