FAQs
Are these jeans true to size?
The 501 Curve Jeans are designed to fit the specified size, but denim can vary. It's recommended to check the size guide and consider that they may feel snug initially and will break in with wear.
What is the material composition?
These jeans are made from 99% cotton and 1% elastane.
How do I care for the black color?
To maintain the black color, wash the jeans inside out in cold water with like colors. Avoid bleach and tumble drying on high heat. Air drying or low heat tumble drying is recommended.
Will these jeans shrink?
Some minor shrinkage may occur after the first wash, which is typical for cotton denim. The elastane in the fabric helps to minimize excessive shrinkage, and they are designed to conform to your shape after breaking in.
What does 'Curve' mean in the product name?
The 'Curve' designation indicates that this model is specifically designed with a fit that accommodates and flatters curvier body shapes, typically offering more room through the hip and seat compared to a standard straight-leg jean.
Can I wear these for formal occasions?
While the black color offers versatility, these are fundamentally casual jeans. They can be dressed up with smart separates for smart-casual events, but may not be suitable for very formal settings.
What is the rise of these jeans?
These jeans feature a mid-rise waist, designed to sit comfortably at the natural waistline.
Troubleshooting
Jeans feel too stiff or tight upon arrival.
This is common with new denim. Wear them frequently, sit down often, and wash them according to care instructions. The fabric will naturally soften and mold to your body over time.
Color fading after washing.
Ensure you are washing inside out in cold water with a small amount of detergent and avoiding harsh chemicals like bleach. Washing with similar dark colors can also help.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or candle wax rubbed on the teeth can help it slide more smoothly.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Please refer to the care instructions on the product label for the most accurate guidance. Generally, washing inside out in cold water with like colors is recommended to preserve the black dye. Avoid using bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to maintain fabric integrity and prevent shrinkage.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting.
- Shrinkage: Some initial shrinkage may occur, especially during the first wash. This is normal for cotton denim. The elastane content helps to mitigate excessive shrinkage.
