Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too loose or too tight
Utilize the belt loops to adjust the fit with a belt. If the fit is significantly off, consider the sizing guide and alternative sizes or fits within the Lee range.
Color fading after washing
Ensure you are washing in cold water and avoid harsh detergents. Washing inside out can also help preserve color.
