Product Information
Full details
This guide is for adult females seeking a classic, durable denim short with a unique, distressed look. The key benefit is the iconic Levi's 501 fit combined with a vibrant red hue and a contemporary chewed hem. A potential consideration is that the 'light destruction' may not suit all preferences. These shorts feature a straight cut through the hip and thigh, a five-pocket styling, and a finished hem with a worn-in appearance.

FAQs
What does 'straight through hip and thigh' mean for the fit?
This means the shorts have a consistent width from the hip area down to the thigh, offering a relaxed fit without being overly tight or baggy.
How should I care for the chewed hem?
The chewed hem is designed to have a frayed appearance. Avoid excessive washing or vigorous cleaning that could lead to unwanted unraveling. Follow standard care instructions, and gently trim any threads that become too long.
Are these shorts suitable for formal occasions?
No, these shorts feature light destruction and a chewed hem, making them best suited for casual and informal settings.
How does the red color hold up over time?
With proper care (washing cold, inside out), the red color should remain vibrant. However, like most dyed fabrics, some fading may occur over extended periods of wear and washing.
Can I expect the 'light destruction' to increase with wear?
The level of destruction is fixed upon production. While normal wear and washing may slightly soften the fabric, the distressed areas are designed to maintain their appearance without significant change.
What material are these shorts made from?
These shorts are made from denim, providing a durable and classic feel.
Troubleshooting
Color bleeding onto other items
Wash separately in cold water for the first few washes. Ensure thorough rinsing.
Distressed hem fraying excessively
If excessive fraying is a concern, carefully trim any loose threads with sharp scissors. Avoid further washing if this is an issue.
Fit is too tight or too loose
Consult the Levi's size chart for accurate measurements before purchasing. If the fit is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size based on the provided sizing guide.
