    • 501s are the absolute BEST
Size: 28 Color: Ojai Frost - Light Indigo
Absolute BEST fitting shorts on the market right now. I buy 501s in all the different washes because they provide great cheek coverage but look super cute!

I’m 5’7, 135lbs, on a scale of Kim to Kendall butt, I have a Kourtney. And I got a size 28 (: *I did originally order a 27 and it was wearable but not at all breathable, 28 was perfect. Pros: The quality is great. They’re a true vintage high rise fit. They are loose enough to breathe and be comfortable which is perfect since there’s no stretchiness in them at all. They are great coverage, so even if you bend over your butt cheeks won’t show. Cons: So while they fit perfect around the waist and hips, the cut off at your legs is horrendous lol. In the last picture, the piece I’m holding was attached with strings that went over my thigh but it was so bad and even tighter than the actual shorts so I had to cut them out. The third and forth picture show what I mean, sitting down you will have biscuit can bulging thighs, period. Lol and they roll up when sitting down so it can get really uncomfortable quick…and as you can see the space on my waist and belly area even when I’m sitting so it’s not that the shorts are overall too small. When standing they aren’t tight around my thighs at all though. Also, in the third pic when I’m sitting, that poof that looks like my belly is actually space just more space in the shorts. Lol. The last two cons I have aren’t really cons that just are weird little things about the shorts that bug me but not enough to actually call them cons. So first one is the crinkle on the butt in the center area. I dont have a huge booty but I have a booty, if that makes sense, so it’s just a weird thing they do I guess. If you have a bigger butt you may not have that issue idk. The second thing is there’s 5 buttons. Which isn’t an issue expect the lowest one is LOW lol and it can be a booger to get them in the loops as some of the loops are not that big. So to sum it up, they’re great shorts for anything that doesn’t involve a lot of sitting. ... show more

    • Bigger bottomed friends!!!
Size: 34 Color: Salsa Halfway - Medium Indigo
These are my favorite shorts, I now own 6 pairs so I just about have them in every color, They fit I would say pretty true to size, if you have a bigger bottom half SIZE UP 2-3 SIZES!!! the sizes are not much different from one another but the booty and thigh room are a big difference

    • Cute/Flattering but Uncomfortable
Size: 32 Color: Luxor Heat - Light Indigo

I feel like "cute/flattering but uncomfortable" is the tagline I could use for pretty much every pair of Levi's I've tried, minus the stretchier styles. To start, I got these in both a SIZE 32 and 33 in the color LUXOR HEAT. I'm anywhere between a size 8-12 with a 31" waist and 43" hips, give or take, but I always feel like I have to size up in Levi's. True to form, I would not have liked my true size 30 or 31 in these, so I'm glad I went up. I ended up keeping the size 32 (pictured), as the 33s were way too baggy. I could probably have done a 31 but I like having a little extra room for my thick thighs and big butt. Keep in mind these do have the button fly, like all the 501 styles do. I personally hate button flys, but I wanted to give them a shot anyway. These shorts are adorable on - I feel really cute when I wear them and my butt looks great. However, they are pretty uncomfortable. This jean material is what I'd consider a classic, sturdy fabric with almost zero stretch, though I will say the Levi's Premium fabric is softer than the Original. These do not conform to your curves much, though I'm sure wear will eventually soften the denim (or you can search for tricks to soften them, like I eventually did). If I'm walking around or standing, I don't really have complaints, but I would probably not wear these in a situation where I'll be sitting very much. On that note, if you have thicker thighs, these shorts feel like they're going to cut them off when you're sitting. I was a soccer player for a long time so have always had larger thighs, and this is one of the reasons I've never loved wearing short-shorts, because they cut into my thighs. The edge of the fabric just digs in while you're sitting, even with these cut off styles. I'd recommend these to someone who likes a stiffer denim and/or has skinny thighs, or someone who just doesn't care, but I find myself super self-conscious sitting in these, so I don't reach for them much. I kept them because there are situations I'd still wear them, plus I just needed shorts. I much prefer my Levi's Premium 501 Mid Thigh Shorts in the same size. ... show more

    • Great shorts that aren’t too short!
Size: 33 Color: Athens Mid Short - Medum Indigo
I love that my butt doesn’t hang out of these so I can wear them to work. I’m a bartender and these are comfortable. Soft enough and long enough. They give me a little bit of a flat booty because they are such a high rise but that’s ok, cuz the rise keeps my panties from showing. I’d say if you want a tighter fit, go true to size. But I ordered one size up after reading reviews and they are casually loose. They do loosen up after an hour or two since there is no stretch, so keep that in mind. I ordered the black ones two but will probably exchange for my true size. These are fitted through the waist and thighs and loosen up a little at the legs. Very comfortable. Good for curvy babes! ... show more

    • Run a little small
Size: 26 Color: Athens Mid Short - Medum Indigo
These are the cutest shorts! But they have no stretch to them and run a little small. I wear a 26 in Levi’s jeans but I could barely button the 26 in these. I will wait until they go back on sale and order the 27. I’m 5’6” 130ish lbs.
