FAQs

What kind of fit do these Lee Rider Classic Jeans have?

These jeans feature a fit that is between regular and relaxed, with a regular waist and a straight leg. They are designed for comfortable, versatile wear.

What material are these jeans made from?

The Lee Rider Classic Jeans are made from 100% cotton, offering durability and breathability.

Are these jeans for men or women?

Despite the 'borrowed-from-the-boys' feel, these Lee Rider Classic Jeans are specifically designed for women, ensuring a feminine and flattering look.

How should I wash my Lee Rider Classic Jeans?

To best care for your jeans, wash them inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, hang them to air dry to maintain color and shape.

Do these jeans have any stretch?

As these jeans are made from 100% cotton, they will have minimal to no inherent stretch. They will, however, naturally conform to your body with wear.

What are 'Rider details'?

'Rider details' refer to specific design elements and characteristics, such as the pocket styling and stitching, that are iconic to Lee's historic 1941 Rider Jeans.

Troubleshooting

Jeans feel too loose or too tight in the waist/hips.

Verify the size. The 36W (waist) and 33L (length) are specific measurements. If the fit is consistently off, consider if a different size or style might be more suitable. For minor looseness, a belt can help.

The 'borrowed-from-the-boys' look doesn't feel right for my body.

Experiment with styling. Pair the jeans with more fitted tops, heels, or feminine accessories to balance the relaxed cut. Sometimes a cuff at the hem can also change the overall proportion and feel.

Color fading after washing.

Always wash your jeans inside out in cold water. Use a color-safe detergent and avoid over-washing. Tumble drying on high heat can also contribute to fading, so opt for low heat or air drying.

Jeans feel stiff after washing.

This is common with 100% cotton denim. Wear them for a bit, and they will soften up with your body heat. You can also try adding a small amount of fabric softener (though some denim purists avoid this to preserve the fabric's integrity).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

First Use & Compatibility

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the color, fit, and longevity of your Lee Rider Classic Jeans. Since they are made from cotton, follow these general guidelines:

  1. Washing: Wash jeans inside out to protect the color and minimize fading. Use cold water on a gentle cycle.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh bleaches or strong stain removers.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, hang to air dry. Air drying helps maintain the shape and reduces potential shrinkage.
  4. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a medium setting. Avoid ironing directly on any printed labels or embellishments.
  5. Storage: Fold or hang your jeans neatly to prevent unnecessary creasing.
