Lee Stella Selvedge Denim Wide Leg Jean - Xion - Size 27x33

Selvedge denim is produced on narrow shuttle looms, creating a clean, finished edge (the 'self-edge') that prevents fraying. It's often associated with higher quality and traditional denim manufacturing.

The ultra-high waist is designed to sit significantly above the natural waistline. For best results, measure your waist at its narrowest point and compare it with the garment's specified waist measurements.

The hems are turned up and tacked to display the selvedge detail. While they can be carefully unpicked and re-hemmed, this may affect the appearance of the original selvedge detail.

The 'Xion' is a dark navy rinse. While it offers a deep indigo color similar to raw denim, it has undergone a washing process, making it softer and less likely to transfer dye heavily compared to true raw denim.

This is a 'low stretch' denim. It contains 19% recycled cotton, which contributes to its structure. Expect minimal stretch initially, with the denim conforming to your body shape over time through wear.

The A-line wide leg is very versatile. It looks great with sneakers, flat boots, heeled boots, platform shoes, and even sandals. The slightly cropped or ankle-grazing length (depending on your height) allows for showcasing various footwear.

This is common with low-stretch selvedge denim. Wear the jeans regularly for a break-in period. Natural body heat and movement will help soften the fabric over time.

Selvedge denim, especially dark rinses, can release excess dye. Wash them separately in cold water for the initial washes to prevent color transfer to other garments.

This is a characteristic of selvedge denim and can contribute to a unique fade pattern over time. If it's undesirable, ensure consistent washing methods and avoid harsh scrubbing in specific areas.
