Full details

The Levis 501 Original Short Z8667 Light is designed for adult females seeking a vintage-inspired, high-rise denim short. Its key benefit is a universally flattering fit that defines the waist and offers a comfortable, straight cut through the hip and thigh. A potential caveat is that, being 100% cotton, the shorts may not offer stretch and might require careful sizing. This iconic style is updated with a modern high rise, featuring a button fly, 5-pocket styling, and a unique chewed hem.

FAQs

What is the rise of these shorts?

These shorts feature a high rise, approximately 10.5 inches.

What is the inseam length?

The inseam is approximately 2.5 inches.

Does the denim have any stretch?

No, these shorts are made from 100% cotton and do not contain any stretch material.

How should I wash these shorts?

Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Use non-chlorine bleach only if needed. Tumble dry medium and warm iron if necessary. Avoid dry cleaning.

What does 'chewed hem' mean?

The 'chewed hem' refers to a distressed, uneven, or frayed edge finish at the bottom of the shorts, giving them a vintage, worn-in look.

Are these shorts suitable for all body types?

The 501 Original fit is designed to be universally flattering, with a high rise and straight cut. However, individual fit can vary.

How do I care for the 100% cotton material?

Wash in cold water and tumble dry on medium. Avoid high heat drying to minimize shrinkage. Wearing them will help the denim conform to your body.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight initially

Wear the shorts frequently to allow the 100% cotton denim to break in and mold to your body. Avoid high heat drying which can cause further shrinkage.

Chewed hem is fraying excessively

Some fraying is characteristic of the chewed hem style. If excessive fraying occurs, you can carefully trim loose threads or consider a professional alteration if preferred.

Sizing seems incorrect

Ensure you have consulted the specific Levis size chart for shorts and measured your waist accurately. Remember that 100% cotton may fit differently than stretch denim.
