Our take on the Levi's Distressed Denim Shorts

Levi's distressed denim shorts are cut-off style shorts in cotton denim with a touch of stretch, offered in light blue and other washes with ripped and frayed detailing. They come in a wide span of waist sizes and several rises and fits, so most shoppers can find a pair that sits where they want. Against fast-fashion cut-offs, the denim is heavier and the hardware sturdier, which owners say holds up better through repeated washing. They suit anyone after a broken-in summer short rather than a clean, tailored one.

Questions and answers

Do these shorts run true to size?
Most owners say they fit true to size, but the stretch denim can relax after wear. If you are between sizes, size down for a snugger fit.
How should I wash them?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and tumble dry low. Skip bleach and dry cleaning, and iron only if needed.
Are they high waisted?
The range includes high, normal and low waist versions, so check the specific listing's waist style before buying.
Will the rips get bigger over time?
The distressing is cut in, so it can spread slightly with washing and wear. Wash inside out and avoid a hot dryer to slow it.
What is the fabric content?
They are cotton denim with about 1% elastane, which gives a little stretch and helps them move with you.

At JCPenney, for $17.49, 58% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
