The Levi’s® Shorts I'm Still Wearing On Repeat Weeks Later
According to the calendar, we're still pretty early on in summer. But according to the shopping calendar, summer is basically over. No, no, that's not a bad thing! It just means I'm done figuring out the gaps in my seasonal wardrobe and which new trends I want to try out. Now, I get to put together cute new outfits and, you know, actually do fun stuff in them.
Levi's® jeans shorts are the basis of so many of my summer 'fits. Read on to see why the classic American brand is a go-to for denim shorts, and shop the pairs I'll be reaching for all season long.
A Trend Authority, Period.
When I need to know what's going on with denim at any given moment, I take a scroll through Levi's® new arrivals—it's basically like reading a seasonal trend report. This summer’s biggest fashion darling is the baggy jort, and Levi's® version of this of-the-moment style is oh, so comfortable.
Serious Heritage Cred
I might cheap out on tank tops and socks, but denim? Never. Levi's® has been setting denim standards for more than 150 years, and that experience is demonstrated in the high-quality look and feel of its shorts. (But not the price tags!) And don’t forget, the 501® jean shorts were literally the first jean shorts in existence—and what’s better than the original?
Versatility Like No Other
It’s easy to load up your cart with jean shorts and hit checkout, but in reality, you only need a few good pairs of Levi's® to be set for summer. Take the Ribcage Shorts, for example: It's a classic silhouette that always feels fresh, and transforms with a quick change of shirt and shoes.
The Fit Confidence Is Everything
For me, a brand turns into a closet staple when I know the clothes are going to fit my body the way I want. With its huge range of sizes and cuts, Levi's® can deliver that peace of mind to almost every shopper. I've got hips and a booty, so I know I'll find my fit confidence in the 501® Curve Shorts.
Such a Broad Selection
You might only need a few pairs of jean shorts to anchor your summer wardrobe, but good luck choosing. There’s the ol' reliable Original, but there are also the fashionable micro and easy-breezy mid-thigh versions. And those are just the 501s®—there are so many other styles at your fingertips.
