FAQs
What does 'selvedge denim' mean?
Selvedge denim is denim woven on a narrow-width shuttle loom, creating a self-finished, clean edge (the 'selvedge') that prevents fraying. It's often associated with higher quality and traditional denim manufacturing.
How should I choose my size?
The product description suggests taking your usual size or sizing up for a more relaxed fit. It's recommended to consult the specific size chart provided by Lee or measure your existing well-fitting jeans for comparison.
How much stretch do these jeans have?
These jeans contain a 'small dose of stretch' for comfort, in addition to the 20% recycled cotton. They are not designed as performance stretch jeans but offer improved flexibility over 100% cotton denim.
Are these jeans suitable for all seasons?
The 'Free Soul' off-white color and the denim weight make them particularly suitable for spring and summer. However, the regular fit and durable material mean they can be worn year-round, especially when paired with appropriate layers in colder weather.
How do I best care for the 'Free Soul' color?
To maintain the bright off-white color, wash inside out in cold water with similar light colors. Address any stains immediately with a gentle, color-safe stain remover before washing.
What is the benefit of recycled cotton?
Using recycled cotton reduces the need for virgin cotton production, saving water, energy, and reducing waste in the textile industry. It contributes to a more sustainable product.
Can I machine dry these jeans?
Yes, you can tumble dry them on a low setting. However, for longevity and to minimize potential shrinkage, air drying (hanging them or laying them flat) is often recommended.
Troubleshooting
Jeans feel too stiff initially
This is common with selvedge denim. Wear them frequently, wash them inside out in cold water, and consider a gentle tumble dry on low heat to help soften the fabric.
Color fades unevenly
Wash jeans inside out in cold water to minimize fading. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. For the 'Free Soul' color, be extra cautious with spot treatments to avoid discoloration.
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. You can try rubbing a pencil lead (graphite) or a bit of wax along the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.
Seams appear to be unraveling
Check for loose threads and carefully trim them. If the seam is significantly damaged, consult a tailor for repair.
