FAQs
What does 'selvedge denim' mean?
Selvedge denim refers to denim produced on narrow, shuttle-type looms, which leaves a clean, finished edge (called a 'selvedge' or 'self-edge') that prevents fraying. It's often associated with higher quality and traditional denim production methods.
How should I choose my size?
The description suggests taking your usual size for a regular fit, or sizing up for a slightly more relaxed look. It's recommended to consult the specific size chart provided by Lee for waist and inseam measurements.
Can I machine wash these jeans?
Yes, machine washing is possible. It's best to wash them inside out in cold water with like colors on a gentle cycle. Air drying is recommended for longevity.
What is the benefit of the 20% recycled cotton?
The inclusion of recycled cotton reduces the need for virgin cotton production, which has a significant environmental impact. It contributes to a more sustainable manufacturing process by reusing existing materials.
Are these jeans suitable for all seasons?
While the off-white color is particularly well-suited for spring and summer, the denim's weight and the regular fit make them comfortable for year-round wear, especially when paired with appropriate layers in cooler months.
How do I care for the 'Free Soul' off-white color?
To maintain the off-white color, wash in cold water, use mild detergent, and avoid bleach. Washing inside out and air drying will help preserve the shade and fabric integrity.
What does 'regular straight' fit mean?
It means the jeans have a standard fit through the thigh and knee, and the leg opening is cut straight from the knee down to the ankle, providing a classic, comfortable silhouette that is neither too tight nor too loose.
Troubleshooting
Jeans feel stiff initially.
Selvedge denim can be stiff when new. Wear them regularly for a few days or wash them inside out in cold water to help soften the fabric.
Off-white color looks dull or has slight discoloration.
Ensure you are washing with like colors and using a mild detergent. Avoid overloading the washing machine. For stubborn spots, consult specific denim cleaning guides for off-white materials.
Seams feel tight or restrictive.
The regular fit is designed for comfort. If you experience tightness, consider sizing up for a more relaxed feel, or ensure you are not overloading pockets, which can add pressure.
PU patch is creased or damaged.
Avoid direct high heat from irons or dryers on the PU patch. If creased, try laying flat to dry or applying very low heat briefly from the inside of the garment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
These jeans arrive ready to wear. Their primary care requirement is maintaining the off-white color and the integrity of the denim.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: It is recommended to wash these jeans inside out in cold water with like colors. Use a gentle cycle if your washing machine has one.
- Detergent: Opt for a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh stain removers, especially on the white PU patch.
- Drying: For best results, hang dry the jeans. Tumble drying on a low heat setting may be used, but air drying helps preserve the fabric and color.
- Ironing: If ironing is needed, use a low heat setting and iron inside out. Avoid direct heat on any printed or PU elements.
- Shrinkage: While the stretch component helps maintain fit, some minimal shrinkage can occur with washing and drying. Follow care instructions to minimize this.
Compatibility:
These jeans are designed for men and are compatible with standard sizing conventions. Refer to the size guide for accurate fit. The versatile design pairs well with a wide range of casual and smart-casual tops and footwear.
