FAQs

What does 'mid-rise' mean for these jeans?

A mid-rise waist sits below the natural waistline but above the hips, offering a comfortable and classic fit for most body types.

How do I determine my correct waist size?

Measure your natural waist with a tape measure. Compare this measurement to the product's size chart, typically found on the brand's website or the retailer's page. For these jeans, the size refers to the UK men's waist measurement.

Is the stretch denim significantly different from regular denim?

Stretch denim incorporates a small percentage of elastane or spandex, providing more flexibility and comfort compared to 100% cotton denim, without compromising the overall denim feel.

How should I care for the hand-sanded finish?

The hand-sanding creates a unique, worn look. Regular washing as per care instructions will maintain this appearance. Avoid aggressive scrubbing or using abrasive cleaners, which could alter the finish.

Can these jeans be worn for formal occasions?

These are casual jeans. While they can be dressed up slightly with a smart shirt, they are best suited for smart-casual or relaxed settings.

What is the benefit of the relaxed fit through the seat and thigh?

A relaxed fit provides extra comfort and freedom of movement, making the jeans ideal for all-day wear without feeling restrictive.

Troubleshooting

Jeans feel too tight after washing

Denim can shrink slightly. If the jeans are too tight, try stretching them gently by hand while damp or wear them for a short period to allow the stretch fabric to adapt.

Color seems to fade unevenly

This can be a characteristic of the hand-sanded, timeworn finish. However, to minimize excessive fading, always wash inside out with similar colors and avoid harsh detergents.

Embroidery is damaged

Avoid ironing directly over the embroidered Pony. If damage occurs, consult a professional tailor for potential repair.
