FAQs

What is selvedge denim?

Selvedge denim is a high-quality denim fabric with finished edges that prevent the fabric from unraveling. This creates a durable and long-lasting product.

How should I measure my waist for these jeans?

Measure around your natural waistline, keeping the measuring tape snug but not too tight. Check the size chart for specific measurements.

Why is the denim rigid?

The rigid denim is untreated and designed to develop unique wear patterns over time, providing a customized fit and a vintage look.

What is the Big "E" Red Tab™?

The Big "E" Red Tab™ is a vintage detail found on some Levi's jeans, indicating a specific historical production period. It is a sign of authenticity.

How do I break in the jeans?

Wear the jeans frequently and wash them sparingly. The more you wear them, the more they will soften and conform to your body.

Are these jeans true to size?

The fit is a slimmer, post-war design. Refer to the size chart and consider your preferred fit when choosing your size.

What is the button fly?

A button fly is a closure system featuring buttons instead of a zipper. This is a classic detail on many Levi's jeans.

Troubleshooting

Jeans feel too stiff initially.

Wash and wear the jeans repeatedly to soften the denim. This process will create a personalized fit.

Jeans shrink after washing.

Always wash in cold water and hang dry to minimize shrinkage. If shrinkage occurs, wear the jeans to stretch them back out.

Color fading too quickly.

Wash the jeans inside out in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid washing too frequently.
