Product Information

Full details

This guide is for adult males seeking a vintage-inspired, comfortable, and durable pair of jeans. The key benefit is the authentic 1950s styling combined with modern relaxed fit and straight leg. A potential caveat is the specific 'Red Cast' color might require separate washing initially to prevent color transfer. The Lee 101 50's Rider is a faithful reproduction of the iconic slim-fit Rider jean from the 1950s, featuring a regular fit and straight leg. Key features include durable cotton construction, and distinctive back pocket placement moved towards the side seams for an authentic vintage look. This particular model is in a 'Red Cast' color and a size 34x34 waist and inseam.

FAQs

What does 'Red Cast' mean?

'Red Cast' refers to the specific dyeing process that gives these jeans their unique vintage-inspired red hue, distinct from traditional blue denim.

How do I care for the 'Red Cast' color?

Wash in cold water with like colors and avoid high heat drying. It is recommended to wash separately for the first few washes to prevent dye transfer.

Is this a slim fit jean?

No, this is a 'Relaxed Jean' with a regular fit and a straight leg cut, inspired by 1950s styles, not a modern slim fit.

What is the material of the jeans?

The jeans are crafted from durable 100% Cotton.

Where are the back pockets located?

The back pockets are positioned towards the side seams, a characteristic detail of the 1950s Rider jeans.

Do these jeans shrink?

Cotton denim can experience some shrinkage, especially with high heat washing or drying. Following the care instructions (cold wash, low heat dry) will minimize this.

What other sizes and colors are available?

This guide focuses on the 34x34 'Red Cast' variant. Other sizes and colors, including different shades of red and blue, are available for the Lee 101 50's Rider Relaxed Jean.

Troubleshooting

Color transfer to other clothing

Wash the jeans separately in cold water for the first several washes. Use a color catcher sheet in the washing machine.

Jeans feel stiff initially

This is normal for durable cotton denim. Wear them regularly; they will soften with wear and washing.

Sizing feels incorrect

Check the product's specific size chart and compare it to your measurements. Consider that cotton denim may have minimal shrinkage after washing.

Seam or stitching coming undone

Minor issues can often be repaired by a tailor. For significant damage, contact customer support regarding warranty.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

These jeans require no setup; they are ready to wear upon purchase. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal fit.

Compatibility:

As a clothing item, compatibility is primarily with personal style and other apparel. The regular fit and straight leg are versatile and can be paired with a wide range of tops, footwear, and outerwear.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. For the first few washes, it is highly recommended to wash separately due to the 'Red Cast' dye, which may transfer to lighter fabrics.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
  • Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry for best results and to minimize shrinkage. High heat can damage the fabric and alter the fit.
  • Ironing: If needed, iron on a medium setting, preferably while the jeans are still slightly damp or inside out.
