Q: Why are the size 17 legs so wide when the waist isn't that big? They look like a medium length skirt or skirts.

I did have to go up a size, first time I’ve had to do it in this brand! Good thing they were still in stock, I did have to travel to another city to pick them up! I bought the two colors light and medium wash they fit great!

I don't mind wide legs, but this was basically a split skirt on me. It was not the look I was going for.

MrsJMc - 16 days ago, Verified purchaser
Bought these in my normal size 10 (I wear a 10 or 30 in all Levi’s and in most all brands). The fit is really comfortable, waist is high (love a high waist!), crotch is perfect (I’m 5”6), no pinch or pull. Shorts are just at top of my knees. Legs are stupidly wide making these look almost like a skirt. Very, very comfortable to walk in, sit in, long car ride in. Also, very unflattering. These are just not attractive on but for a really comfortable short that doesn’t ride up, let’s air circulate when it’s hot, is really easy to sit in I’ll wear them all summer long.

A cute pair of Bermuda denim shorts

soziesharonjorg - 17 days ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These seem like good quality denim shorts. I wanted to try the Bermuda shorts trend, and although I don’t think that this look is for me, I do think that they are cute overall and still recommend them. I found them true to size, I’m 5’7 and 130 lbs and the size 4 fit me very well. The denim is very soft, I like the high waist and I the light denim color. I think they look a bit silly on me but would definitely look cute on someone young and trendy I received an incentive to write this review.

I wanted to like these but holy cow they were SO tight on my stomach. They fit in the waist and the thighs were incredibly roomy but my stomach was so constricted.

Uncomfortable crotch

J Cox - 20 days ago, Verified purchaser
I love the style of these shorts and the fact thet they're long enough for my longer thighs but my biggest issue is that the crotch is too short. These shorts have consistently given me a wedgie and makes it super uncomfortable to wear. I personally don't like my jeans trying to floss my butt, but to each their own.

They are good quality but the legs are too wide and they are too long. I’m 5’1 and the fit below my knee. They fit more like a skort. Would not recommend if your short.

Hello everyone I'm 5'4", 163 lbs and the size 14 fit me perfectly in these. At first I wasn't sure what size to get since I'm a first time mom who gained a lot of weight throughout my pregnancy. 52 lbs extra to be exact. I've since lost around 20 lbs after giving birth and have been struggling to find my true size in clothes again. Initially I bought a size 17 thinking they'd be a perfect match but nope wayyyy too big. Returned the size 17 and purchased size 14 online which fits me perfectly btw. The size 14 is not too tight nor too lose but just right. I do have a slight gap in between the shorts and my waist but that's easily fixable with a belt. I'm just happy to have found a pair of good quality shorts that aren't too short bc those types of shorts always ride up my juicy thighs. Overall I'm extremely happy with them since summer is right around the corner and now I have something nice to wear.

soziedhenn - 1 month ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am normally around a size 6 in bottoms, which is the size that I purchased in these shorts. To say that these shorts were not flattering is an understatement. They are very high rise and gave me a huge wedgie. They also accentuated my stomach and we’re very uncomfortable. The fabric is very stiff. Even though the ripped look is very cute, I am not a fan of the shorts. I received an incentive to write this review.

sozieccavin - 1 month ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These women’s size twelve shorts fit true to size. The waist has a button and a zipper fly. The shorts are made from a light colored midweight denim. The shorts are very long in length. I am five foot four and they hit under the knee on me. The leg part of the shorts was wide. They had pockets and a spot with some distressing and a hole. They shorts are very trendy and could be paired with lots of options for tops. I received an incentive to write this review.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These size 4 high rise long denim shorts fit as expected! My measurements at the time of this review are C31 W27 H34 and weight around 120lbs. This is would be a fun look on someone a bit taller, on me I don’t love the way it makes me look shorter and wider! The shorts are lose fit and comfortable and move well, I like the high rise to tuck in a tighter tank top or tee. They could be worn in the fall with a pair of high boots too!

Longer length shorts perfect for summer

soziejkelley1008 - 1 month ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These size 12 long length shirts by universal thread were perfect for what I was looking for. I loved the extra flare of the ripped hole in my leg. These fit perfect and felt good on. I loved the longer length of the shorts. These shorts went past my knees but still flowy enough that it won't be to hot during the summer. If your looking for shorts but hate showing your legs these are it! I received an incentive to write this review.

I didn’t love the fit on these. Thu in no way compliment my figure, maybe on someone thin and slender vs. curvy
