FAQs

Are these shorts true to size?

Yes, they are designed to be true to size, but since they are made of 100% cotton, you may notice them relaxing slightly for a more customized fit after repeated wear.

How should I wash my Levi's 501 Shorts?

We recommend washing them inside out in cold water with similar colors and air drying them to preserve the denim quality and the distressed finish.

Can I put these in the dryer?

While machine drying is possible on a low heat setting, air drying is the best way to prevent shrinkage and extend the life of the distressed details.

What is the rise height on these shorts?

These shorts feature a high-rise fit designed to sit at or near the natural waist for a flattering, waist-defining silhouette.

Are the holes in the shorts reinforced?

The light destruction is an intentional style choice; while not reinforced, the high-quality denim construction ensures that the distressed areas remain stable during regular use.

Troubleshooting

The fabric feels stiff upon first wear

100% cotton denim naturally softens with movement and body heat; wear them around the house for a few hours to break the fabric in.

The chewed hem is fraying more than desired

Carefully trim any excessively long loose threads with sharp fabric scissors, but avoid pulling at the threads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Flattering waist-defining high-rise fit
Durable, long-lasting cotton denim fabric
Versatile design for various casual outfits
Classic aesthetic that never goes out of style

Cons

Distressed elements may not be ideal for formal settings
Non-stretch cotton requires breaking in for a personalized fit
Chewed hem style requires careful laundering to prevent further fraying

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these shorts feature a raw, chewed hem, we recommend washing them inside out in cold water to maintain the integrity of the fraying. Air drying is strongly suggested to prevent unnecessary shrinkage and to protect the light destruction detailing. While they are designed to fit true to size, allow for a slight break-in period as the cotton relaxes to your body shape after a few wears. They are compatible with most casual footwear, including classic sneakers, leather sandals, or ankle boots.
