FAQs
Do these jeans have any stretch?
No, these jeans are crafted from rigid, non-stretch denim to maintain a structured, vintage shape.
How high is the rise?
These feature a super high-rise cut, specifically designed to sit well above the natural waist to define the waistline.
Are these suitable for petite or tall frames?
The wide-leg cut and high rise are generally very flattering for various heights by elongating the leg, though you may need to check the inseam length to ensure the perfect hem.
How should I wash them to maintain the colour?
Wash them inside out in cold water to prevent fading and keep the denim looking fresh for as long as possible.
Should I size up because they have no stretch?
Many users find that because the denim is rigid, sizing up allows for a more comfortable fit, especially if you prefer a slightly relaxed feel in the waist and hips.
Troubleshooting
The waistband feels too tight upon first try-on.
Rigid denim often requires a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house to allow the fibers to soften and mold to your specific shape.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Avoid using heavy fabric softeners which can coat the fibers. Instead, air dry the jeans and manually flex the fabric once dry to restore natural suppleness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Levi's Ribcage jeans last for years, proper care is essential. Since the material is rigid denim, avoid frequent high-heat drying, which can alter the fabric's integrity. Instead, wash in cold water with similar colors and hang dry whenever possible to preserve the fit. Because these jeans do not have stretch, it is recommended to ensure your sizing accounts for the lack of give in the waistband; if you are between sizes, you may find that sizing up is more comfortable for long-term wear. Always check the internal garment tag for specific care instructions regarding the specific wash of your denim.
