The verdict
Fit
Re/Done rework pieces are by definition unique; this cut reflects the original vintage silhouette, typically higher-rise and straighter-leg than modern cuts.
Quality
Reworked vintage denim inherits the durability of the original garment plus the care taken in alteration and finishing. Quality depends on the original piece's condition.
Is the price fair?
Luxury-contemporary—the price reflects the brand's rework process, vintage provenance, and exclusivity claim, not typical garment durability metrics.
Best for
Collectors and trendsetters drawn to the rework aesthetic and willing to invest in a one-of-one piece that carries brand story.
Care
Vintage reworked pieces need careful washing; hand-wash or delicate cycle to protect alterations and original denim integrity.
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.
