These Vintage Levi's Big E Black Denim Shorts are in Very Good Condition. They have a distressed look and may have been modified. The waist looks different than original making them more of a low rise shorts. And there are triangle inserts on the outside of the leg bottoms. These shorts have copper rivets and the Big E tag on the back pocket. The tag says that they are Size 30 but the waist is slightly larger. See my measurements below.  Thanks for looking. 

Waist circumference  32 inches 
Leg inseam  2 inches
