What length do the baggy shorts hit?

You set the inseam length. A longer inseam (8-10 inches) gives the classic baggy jort look, while shorter works for a more casual cut.

Can I use non-denim fabric?

Yes - cotton twill, canvas, or any medium-weight woven fabric works well for the baggy shorts silhouette.
