Product Information

Full details

The Lee Stella Wide Leg Jeans are designed for women seeking a retro-inspired, flattering silhouette. Their key benefit is the versatile A-line cut that pairs well with various footwear and the comfortable, durable 13.25oz low stretch selvedge denim. A potential caveat is the 'low stretch' nature of the denim, which may require a break-in period for optimal comfort.

FAQs

What does 'selvedge denim' mean?

Selvedge denim is made on narrower looms, creating a clean, finished edge (the 'selvedge') that prevents fraying. It's often associated with higher quality and traditional denim craftsmanship. The signature red or white stitching along the edge is a hallmark.

How do I care for my selvedge jeans?

To maintain the integrity and color of your selvedge denim, it's recommended to wash them as infrequently as possible. When washing, use cold water, a gentle cycle, and mild detergent. Avoid machine drying; hang them to air dry. Wash them inside out to protect the color and the selvedge detail.

Will these jeans stretch over time?

The Lee Stella jeans are made with 'low stretch' denim. While they won't stretch significantly like jeans with elastane, they will break in and conform to your body shape over time, offering a personalized fit.

What is the 'Xion' rinse?

Xion refers to the specific dark navy rinse applied to the denim. It's a classic, deep indigo wash designed to be versatile and timeless.

Can the hems be altered?

The hems are turned up and tacked to showcase the selvedge detail. Altering them would require careful unpicking and re-hemming, potentially losing the intended design feature. It's best to ensure the length is suitable as is.

What does the 19% recycled cotton mean?

This indicates that a portion of the cotton used in the denim blend is made from pre- or post-consumer recycled cotton fibers, contributing to a more sustainable production process.

Troubleshooting

Jeans feel stiff initially

This is typical for low-stretch selvedge denim. Wear them frequently for a few days; they will soften and mold to your body with wear and washing.

Sizing seems slightly off

Refer to the Lee size chart for accurate measurements. Low-stretch denim can fit differently than stretch denim; ensure you are measuring your waist and inseam correctly according to the guide.

Selvedge line detail is not visible

The selvedge line is part of the rolled and tacked hem. If the hem is not turned up sufficiently, the detail might be less prominent. Ensure the hem is styled as intended.
