Too long in the rise
"I wanted these to work! The style and fabric are so good, and I love the buckle in the back but sadly they are too long in the rise and it’s especially noticeable when sitting down. An inch shorter rise would solve it."

"I LOVEEE the Bodie shorts!!! They’re so much better than I expected!! Definitely size up if you’re unsure. They feel like a perfect 90’s vintage short and I’m so excited to wear them this summer!! They tighten up slightly when sitting down but I’m glad I went with a size large (size 9 in Chrissy’s). They’ll look good once I’m done losing the baby weight too. Truly a short for every season of life!"
"So I love the comfy chair easy fit! It’s the barrel shorts edition. Huge fan. Love the adjustment in the back. I would like these in a white denim wash please"
"I am 5'6" with a long torso, waist 27 inches, hips 40 inches. I bought these shorts in XS, and this is an important note when you're considering sizing: I was nervous about these being too tight/small in the hips because I had to seriously shimmy in to put them on. Knowing these are 100% cotton denim, I decided to stick with this size and see if they'd relax with wear. As I've continued to wear them, they have significantly softened and loosened up to the PERFECT custom fit for me. Cute, baggy (but not too baggy) mom shorts that go with everything. Thank you CJLA for these amazing shorts!"
"I’ve been waiting for CJLA to release something like these for a while and wow did they deliver! These are just the best. I’m size 1 in Hollands but a size 0 in Bodie. I was really unsure which size to get in these so I just got both XS & S. I’ll keep both. The S is loose so I’ll pair those with tuck-in tops or for slouchier looks. The XS is more fitted and polished looking. Definitely slimming with the ultra high waist. But still so modest! Couldn’t love these more. I’m 5’8” ~140 lb"
"I really loved the material of these shorts and debated keeping them because I loved so many aspects of them. I ended up returning because they were not flattering on my body type. They flared out at my already wide hips. But I think the style is super cute and would recommend."
"In a world where cute and modest clothes are harder to come by, these shorts are a welcome change. Long enough to wear to a church picnic but short enough that they don’t feel frumpy."
"Love! Perfect length and baggyness."
"CJLA knocks it out of the park again with these Bodi shorts!!! I am in love with them. I am mostly a true 9 in CJLA denim (one pair a size 7) and I opted for the medium. They fit great, but are tight when sitting down, so if unsure, size up. I am in the process of losing weight, so I feel confident they will continue to fit better and better. They feel like a 90's throwback. The length is perfect, the wash is perfect, they are PERFECT. I honestly think I might like these better than the Hendrix and I never thought I would say that outload."
"Actually obsessed with these. One of my all time favorite purchases from CJLA"
