BDG never worn (slightly damaged!!) jean shorts

Shorts are in brand new condition. However, I had attempted a YouTube hack to make them fit my waist better by cutting slits into the inner waistband of the shorts and putting elastic band through them (it unfortunately did not work). The shorts do have slits in the inner waistband, but this does NOT affect how they feel on the body, and how they appear. Damage is NOT VISIBLE from the outside of the shorts, and they are in otherwise BRAND NEW condition! I have attached photos of all damage!
