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.

I'm 5'5 115 lbs and usually a size 27 in levis, so that's what i got. I got them in "lunar black" and "black deconstructed." Not sure why, since both of these shorts are really similar except for one of them has more rips in them (I can't remember exactly what i was thinking at the time when i ordered, but LOL I do remember feeling ridiculously torn about which ones to get!). Despite the fact that they're supposed to be the same size, the "black deconstructed" pair was too small for me (both too short and tight). They did seem to have a 2.5 inch inseam, so maybe they were just tighter in the waist and forced me to pull them up higher? I don't know, but they measured about 11inches long from the waist band to the bottom on the sides. They're really cute, but small enough that i had to return them. Still considering if it's worth ordering them in size 28 (since i'm keeping the other ones, probably not, but i also feel like i can never have too many pairs of shorts if i like them). The size 27 "lunar black" shorts measure nearly 12 inches long with a nearly 3 inch inseam. They weren't as tight as the other pair and fit me like normal. You wouldn't think it from looking at them though (i don't know if it's the cut or whatever, but they LOOK like they should be shorter than the other pair). I hate that they have a button fly (i find them so annoying!!!) but i like the style enough to deal with it. As for whether you should order up, Levis DOES advise sizing up with these. I ignored that, b/c I was worried that if i ordered these shorts too big they would look like a saggy diaper on me, but now i think one size bigger would be okay, so i say go for it. They are 100 percent cotton, so they'll loosen up with wear, but they could also shrink depending on how you wash.

These Levi’s 501 shorts are an absolute staple! The fit is flattering, with just the right amount of structure and a vintage, lived-in feel. They have that classic high-rise look that hugs in all the right places without feeling too tight. The denim is sturdy but comfortable, and they only get better with wear. Perfect for dressing up or down—definitely a must-have for any wardrobe!

These are my favorite denim shorts and I have them in 4 colors. Perfect fit, great material and they don’t ride up. They are a little more snug fitting rather than a loose short. I ordered my usual size but you can size up and it will still fit and not be too baggy just a little bit looser than I think their intended more exact fit. Every color I’ve gotten looks exactly like the photo. The rips are just sometimes a little more or a little less than what’s in the photo.

I love the look of these shorts so I’m pretty bummed they didn’t fit. My true to size barely buttoned and I sized up 2 and they buttoned but were up my butt and too tight on my stomach. If you’re curvy with booty and a belly, these likely won’t work well. So sad!

Great quality, nice jean material, thick ,style was great, fit great with room to spare .

Got these shorts on sale for a great price. They fit as expected but on the smaller size. I normally wear a size zero but wanted a looser fit.

I normally take a 30-31 in Levi’s - these run a bit small. I could have got away with a 34 and they would be loose but the 33 fits just right. There isn’t any stretch. I love them but not sure if they are too short or not. I may wear a long shirt over them but they’re definitely a good quality and comfortable. Run small. By 1-2 sizes is my guess.

I love the fit and they are so comfortable. I sized up because I want it not too tight on my thighs and hips. A tiny bit loose on waist but not a problem.

Lo compre para unas vacaicones, llego antes de tiempo y me quedo justo pero bien, horma muy bonito y no esta tan corto como otros. Aguanto super bien las 4 usadas y la mojada. Excelente calidad y lo mejor lo compre en oferta

Super cute shorts, not too short or long. Yes they have the paper label, it’s the outlet style, hence the price. That being said they fit and look exactly the same so I’m fine with it. The measurements are weird In the pictures, I went with the measurements off the Levi’s website and I would say they fit true to size, they don’t have any stretch but they do “loosen” in the waste and leg as you wear them.

I really like the shape and length of these shorts. I got the size 27 w, my waist is in between 27 and 28. I went with the 27 and they actually fit great.
