FAQs

What is the rise of these shorts?

These shorts feature a high rise waist, designed to sit higher on your natural waistline.

What does 'chewed hem' mean?

A 'chewed hem' refers to a distressed, raw edge finish on the bottom of the shorts that has been intentionally frayed for a vintage or edgy aesthetic.

Are these shorts stretchy?

No, the Levis 501 Original Shorts are typically made from 100% cotton denim and do not have added stretch. They will break in and soften with wear.

What is the best way to care for the light pink color?

To preserve the light pink color, machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

How do I know if I should size up or down?

The 501® fit is a classic straight cut. If you prefer a more relaxed fit, consider sizing up. If you want a snugger fit and are willing to break them in, stick to your usual size or consider sizing down slightly.

Can I wear these shorts in cooler weather?

Yes, while they are shorts, their durable denim construction makes them suitable for cooler weather when paired with tights or leggings underneath.

What is the material of the shorts?

These shorts are made from 100% cotton denim.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight/stiff initially.

This is common with 100% cotton denim. Wear them for short periods initially and they will soften and mold to your body with wear. Avoid excessive washing.

Color fading unevenly.

Ensure you are washing inside out in cold water with like colors. Avoid harsh detergents or bleaching agents. Consider a color-specific detergent for darks or brights.

Chewed hem appears to be unraveling excessively.

The 'chewed' hem is designed to fray. If it unravels beyond your desired look, you can carefully trim any stray threads or stitch the hem at a desired length to prevent further unraveling.

Sizing seems different from other shorts.

The 501® fit is a classic straight cut. Review the Levi's® size chart and consider your preferred fit (e.g., snug, relaxed) when selecting your size. Measure your waist and compare.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shorts require no setup, as they are a ready-to-wear garment. Compatibility is straightforward; they are designed as women's apparel.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach. This can damage the denim and affect the color.
  • Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry for best results and to minimize shrinkage.
  • Ironing: Iron on a medium setting if needed. Avoid ironing the chewed hem directly to maintain its distressed look.
  • Color Preservation: Washing with similar colors is recommended, especially for the light pink hue, to prevent color bleeding.
