FAQs
What does 'Overt Wash' mean?
Overt Wash refers to the specific dyeing and finishing process applied to the denim, resulting in a classic, authentic blue color that highlights the twill texture and gives a true, lived-in look.
Is this denim stretchy?
No, this is a 10.75oz *rigid* denim, meaning it does not contain elastane or other stretch fibers. It is made from a blend of cotton and lyocell.
How should I size these jorts?
These jorts are designed with a relaxed, boyish silhouette that sits lower on the hips. Refer to the size chart provided by Lee for accurate measurements, considering the intended fit.
Can I machine dry these jorts?
Yes, you can tumble dry them on a low setting. However, hanging them to dry is recommended to best preserve the fabric's integrity and prevent shrinkage.
Will the color fade significantly?
The Overt Wash is designed for an authentic look, which may include natural fading over time with wear and washing. Follow care instructions to manage fading.
What is Lyocell?
Lyocell is a type of rayon fabric made from wood pulp. It is known for its softness, breathability, and sustainability, contributing to the lightweight feel of the denim.
Troubleshooting
Denim feels stiff initially.
This is typical for rigid denim. Wear the jorts frequently, or wash them once with like colors in cold water to help soften the fabric.
Color transfer to other clothing or surfaces.
Wash the jorts separately or with dark colors for the first few washes. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored items while the garment is damp.
Fit is too relaxed or low-rise.
Consider styling with a tucked-in top to define the waist, or layer with a belt. The design is intentionally oversized and low-slung.
Fabric seems to be pilling or showing excessive wear.
Ensure you are following the care instructions, particularly regarding washing and drying. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive heat during drying.
