While everybody else debates the merits of barrel legs versus '90s cuts, when it comes to denim, I obsess over shorts. (Blame it on growing up in Florida, where there are two seasons: humid and scorching hot.) And the one trend I'm seeing from the Gulf Coast beaches to the streets of NYC is...baggy shorts.
I'm not talking oversized fits or Bermudas; these pairs still run a few inches above the knee, with a fitted waist and wider legs. It creates a more flattering fit for a wide range of body types, and it's breezy and easy to run around in, without constantly wedgie-picking or readjusting.
After trying on nearly a dozen styles this summer, I can say Levi's makes the best baggy shorts around. And right now, you can snag the 94 Baggy Shorts for $28 (they're normally $59.50) during Amazon Prime Day. Now through July 11, Amazon is featuring serious discounts on everything from beauty products to Yeti tumblers to mattresses. With all those big buys, it's easy to overlook shorts, but here's why you shouldn't—especially not this pair.
