Love these shorts
I am 5’1, about 126-133 lbs pending how I’m doing in the eating category. I bought these in the 27 because the 28’s were not available. I thought I’d have to send them back as size 4 is usually too tight. They fit and I can breathe, but I AM waiting to see if they restock in the 28’s. I like them enough to keep them for my slimmer days, so if you are short like me and below 125 in weight, I highly recommend these jean shorts as they are an excellent length. They don’t make me look like an old lady. They are a thin jean, but wash well and still are high quality. These thick jeans from back in my old days (I’m 50) I just can’t figure out why girls want to bring them back as I think they are uncomfortable. These shorts are mid rise, which I love. The high rise...since I am short in legs and body...are just uncomfortable and make my stomach bulge. These come right below my belly button and make my stomach look flattering. They push in the lower bulgy part but don’t come up to my chest! Yay! So IF you like midrise, and like soft jeans, these are the shorts for you. The distressing is not exposing either. I can garden in these and wear them to the local winery/out and about. My husband even likes these and told me to not send back this pair if they don’t have the 28’s, so I guess that is saying something! But ...I’d recommend going up if you are on the higher end of the weight. So I would definitely prefer they restock! So i can get the 28’s.

Not what I expected.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had to return these shorts. The length and color were great. However, they have too much stretch in the fabric. I am looking for a pair of longer jean shorts without stretch. I don’t care for stretch in all of my jeans. They also fit much smaller than I expected. I usually wear a 28 or 29 and the 30 was good in the waist but too snug on thighs. That might be because of the stretch material.

Heavy Distressing
These shorts were way to distressed for me, so I sent them back. The fit was perfect

near perfect short
I love the fit of this pair of shorts. I had almost given up on shorts. I’m over 50 and everything seems to be too short, weirdly styled. I absolutely love this one. I don’t know what it is with the fit but it’s just more flattering than most denim shorts. I will say while I love the distressing, I am a little concerned about how it will hold up. I’m hoping I can find this style in my size in a less distressed wash. The wash is lovely and has a very bleached-denim vibe but I am concerned there will be large holes where it is thinner. I plan to wash on gentle in a mesh bag and lay flat to dry. As far as sizing I took my AG size 28 and it seems fine. I can’t see taking a size down. They are fitted, but not skin tight. Practically perfect!

Most comfortable shorts ever!
I love these shorts. They are a super comfortable, relaxed fit. I had to buy several pairs to find the right size. Im 5'0' 127lbs. I could wear this particular short a Size 27 or 28. In my opinion, they run big in a 28 and will stretch. Size down.

So cute but runs very large
These shorts are so cute and so comfortable. I love them. I am 5'6" and weigh 103lbs, I ordered the 23 and they were a little big when I put them on but they were so cute I kept them anyway. I wish they cam in one size smaller because by the end of the day play8ng with my girls they were extremely stretched out-that is why I deducted one star. I just washed them in warm and dried them on high and they seem to be back to normal. Love them!!

Great shorts for being a 58 year old!
Love these shorts. They do stretch out a bit but still love them. Good for all day but need to put in the dryer if want to wear again before washing them. I actually bought a size smaller (I can squeeze into them now) so I have a pair that works when I drop the LB's...love them that much! :)
