FAQs
Are these jeans stretchy?
The Parkside Active line is designed for flexibility and ease of movement, incorporating materials that provide a comfortable stretch compared to traditional 100% rigid denim.
What does 'Active Taper' mean?
It means the jeans are slim through the leg for a modern silhouette but offer a more relaxed, generous cut through the seat and thighs to accommodate movement.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
This model is a UK size 42 waist. Measure your natural waistline where you typically wear your pants to ensure the best fit.
Can I dry clean these jeans?
It is generally recommended to avoid dry cleaning. Machine washing in cold water as instructed is the best way to maintain the hand-sanded finish.
Does the hand-sanded look differ on every pair?
Yes, as the distressing is done by hand, each pair of Parkside jeans will have subtle variations, making your garment unique.
Troubleshooting
Color fading after a few washes
Always wash inside out in cold water and avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.
Jeans feel slightly stiff after air drying
Give the fabric a gentle tug or tumble on an air-only cycle for a few minutes to soften the fibers.
Indigo dye transfer to light-colored furniture
Wash the jeans with a cup of vinegar in the rinse cycle to help set the indigo dye before the first few wears.
