Gemma Short
The verdict

At $135, seams are reinforced and fabric has substance. Expect durability through multiple washes and regular wear.
Price check
At $135, mid-tier pricing reflects solid construction and Hudson's brand positioning. Fair value for shoppers who rotate shorts regularly.
Best for
Shoppers seeking a reliable, fitted denim short from a recognizable brand that works across casual occasions.
Care

What owners report about Hudson Jeans shorts
Reviewers describe the brand's denim as notably soft and stretchy, and the shorts follow that pattern — the Amelia mid-rise is described as a fitted, near-knee-length cut in the same stretch denim as the jeans. Aggregate owner sentiment runs positive (a denim community site averages 4.46/5 across 142 reviews), with fit and comfort the most repeated praise. Complaint reviews, though, report inconsistency between pairs — some stretchy and fitted, others stiff — plus holes developing with wear and a customer-service team that often does not respond to defect claims.
- Strengths
- Owners consistently praise soft, comfortable stretch denim that holds its shape.
- Watch out for
- Complaint reviews report pair-to-pair inconsistency in fabric and fit, holes developing (including at the back pocket), and unresponsive customer service when items fail.
- Sizing
- Most cuts are reported true to size, though the brand itself advises sizing up in some of the women's skinny cuts and owners note lengths run long.
