FAQs

What does 'Red Cast' mean for the color?

'Red Cast' refers to a specific dye process that gives the denim a subtle reddish undertone, contributing to its vintage appearance. This color may evolve and fade with wear.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Lee. The size indicated (e.g., 38x34) typically represents waist size (38 inches) and inseam length (34 inches).

Are these jeans suitable for all body types?

The 'Regular Fit' and 'Straight Leg' are designed to be a classic, accommodating fit. However, individual preferences for fit can vary.

Can I machine wash and dry these jeans?

While machine washing in cold water is possible, it's best to air dry to preserve the fit, color, and overall integrity of the denim.

How often should I wash my jeans?

For longevity and to maintain the color, it's often recommended to wash denim as infrequently as possible. Spot cleaning and airing out are good alternatives for minor issues.

What is the difference between this and other Rider jeans?

The 101 50's Rider is a specific vintage reproduction focusing on the 1950s iteration, featuring unique pocket placement and a particular fit profile compared to other Rider models.

Troubleshooting

Jeans feel stiff initially

This is normal for durable cotton denim. Wear them regularly, and they will soften over time. Washing them inside out with cold water can also help.

Color bleeding onto other clothes

Wash the jeans separately or with dark colors for the first few washes to prevent color transfer. Ensure they are fully rinsed.

Shrinkage after washing

Always follow the care instructions, using cold water and air drying. If shrinkage is a concern, consider sizing up slightly or avoid machine drying.

Care Instructions:

  • Drying: For best results and to maintain the 'Red Cast' color, air dry the jeans. Avoid high heat from tumble dryers, as this can cause shrinkage and affect the color.
