Troubleshooting
Jeans feel stiff or tight initially
This is normal for new denim. Wear the jeans frequently, and they will soften and mold to your body with time and wear. Washing them inside out in cold water can also help to soften the fabric.
Color bleeding during the first few washes
Wash the jeans separately or with dark colors in cold water for the first few washes to prevent color transfer to other garments.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a bit of wax to the zipper teeth can help it glide more smoothly.
Fit is not as expected after washing
Denim can sometimes shrink or stretch slightly. Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions. If the fit is still not right, consider an exchange or consult Levi's sizing guide.
