FAQs
Are these shorts true to size?
Yes, they are designed to fit the standard 32W measurement accurately, though personal preference for fit can vary.
Does the red tab always have writing on it?
Levi's red tabs vary by production; you may receive a classic red tag with or without writing, all of which are authentic.
Can I bleach these shorts?
It is not recommended to use bleach, as it will damage the garment-dyed finish and degrade the denim fibers.
What material are these made of?
These specific shorts are crafted from high-quality denim, chosen for its durability and classic texture.
How should I store them?
Keep them folded in a drawer or hung by the waistband to prevent wrinkles and maintain their structure.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels slightly rigid after washing
Tumble dry on a low setting for a short period or wear them for a few hours to allow body heat and movement to soften the fibers.
Difficulty with the button fly
New denim button flies can be stiff initially; button and unbutton the fly a few times while off the body to loosen the metal hardware.
