Levi's A Frame Short

Shorts

The verdict

Premium Levi's-licensed shorts with an iconic vintage silhouette for heritage denim collectors.

Fit

A-frame cut is widest at the hip, narrowing toward the knee; a classic 1950s-60s proportion. True to size for Levi's vintage patterns, likely roomier through the hip and thigh than modern shorts.

Quality

At 295 USD, this sits at Re/Done's highest price tier. Expect meticulous construction faithful to original Levi's specifications, with premium hardware and seaming.

Price check

Premium pricing reflects both the Levi's heritage licensing and Re/Done's design authority. The price is justified for authentic vintage reproduction.

Best for

Serious denim collectors and shoppers who value historical accuracy and heritage silhouettes.

Care

Vintage-inspired denim requires careful washing to preserve the indigo; wash inside-out in cold water and air dry.

What owners report about Re/Done shorts

Owners describe rigid, 100% cotton denim with restrained distressing — a little fraying rather than heavy destruction — that holds its shape after the first wash and through repeat wears. The recurring friction is sizing: one shorts reviewer found her usual size tight through the hips while the next size up ran long and looser, and reviewers note the all-cotton fabric shrinks slightly in the wash. The cuts also run short in the leg, and the price is high for a pair of cutoffs.

Strengths
Reviewers report the rigid cotton denim keeps its shape wash after wash, with distressing that reads subtle rather than beat-up.
Watch out for
Sizing between adjacent sizes is the common failure point — one size pulls tight at the hips while the next runs long and large — at a price that punishes a wrong guess.
Sizing
Because the 100% cotton denim shrinks slightly in the wash, reviewers advise sizing up from a tight fit, and ordering two adjacent sizes to compare is common.
