The verdict
Fit
Expect a standard casual men's short fit; check the size chart as Diesel's European sizing can run slim.
Quality
Dévoré detailing at this price point is likely simpler or more localized than on Diesel's higher-priced pieces, but still a decorative touch beyond a plain short.
Is the price fair?
At $137, this sits at a fair mid-tier price for a design-detailed Diesel short.
Best for
A shopper who wants Diesel's dévoré motif without spending at the top of the brand's range.
Care
Hand wash or use a gentle cycle to protect the dévoré detailing.
What owners report about Diesel shorts
Trustpilot reviewers for the diesel.com storefront report recurring construction problems on Diesel's shorts and denim: one buyer specifically noted 'seams come away on shorts' after normal wear, and others describe sizing as inconsistent from one order to the next, needing multiple reorders to land on the right fit. Design-wise, reviewers consistently call out the line's hand-finished washes and hardware -- engraved rivets, embossed patches, metal logo trims -- as its most distinctive strength. The recurring complaint isn't initial fit or styling but durability: reviewers say the shorts don't hold up as long as the price would suggest.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently point to the hand-finished washes and hardware details -- engraved rivets, embossed leather patches, metal logo trims -- as the line's most distinctive strength.
- Watch out for
- Trustpilot reviewers report seams coming apart on the shorts and general material failure with normal wear, despite the premium price point.
- Sizing
