Lee® Women's Heritage Classic Denim Short, Sizes 2-18

These shorts are amazing. Very comfortable. The material is softer and has a nice stretch to them. They are a little longer but I just fold them up to the length I want.

These are 100% cotton, so they don't stretch like a lot of brands these days that add elastic. I sized up one size, but I think how you carry weight will change whether you should or not. I'm a muscular pear shape- I'm thicker on the bottom than on top, so these are great in the waist for me, they're not loose in the legs like they are in the photo though; In fact, they are rather snug. Had I followed the size chart, based on hip measurement, I would have been sizing up two sizes but they'd be too big in the waist- pick your poison! I'm going to keep what I have and hope they stretch a little bit with time once worn.
