FAQs

What does 'Jort' refer to?

'Jort' is a portmanteau of 'jeans' and 'shorts', typically referring to denim shorts that are longer or have a more relaxed fit.

What is the material of these shorts?

The shorts are made from 10oz denim, consisting entirely of cotton, with no added stretch.

How should I determine my size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Lee, paying close attention to the waist measurement. Given the relaxed fit, some may prefer to size up or down depending on desired bagginess.

Can I wear these shorts in very hot weather?

Yes, the 100% cotton denim is breathable, making them suitable for warm weather. However, the non-stretch nature means they might feel warmer than stretch denim.

How do I care for the 'Mid Stone' wash?

Follow the care instructions: wash cold with like colors, inside out, and tumble dry low or hang dry. This helps preserve the detailed fading and whiskering.

Are these shorts suitable for formal occasions?

No, these shorts have a distinctly casual and relaxed style and are not suitable for formal occasions.

What does '10oz denim' mean?

10oz refers to the weight of the denim fabric, indicating it is a medium-weight denim, offering a balance between durability and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Drawstring feels difficult to adjust

Ensure the drawstring is not twisted and try to smooth out the fabric around it. If it's new, it might loosen slightly with use.

Denim feels stiff or uncomfortable

Wash the shorts inside out in cold water and tumble dry on low heat. Repeated wear and washing will soften the non-stretch denim over time.

Color fading unevenly

This is often an intentional design feature of the Mid Stone finish. For more uniform fading, always wash inside out and avoid prolonged direct sunlight during drying.

Pockets feel shallow

While designed for practicality, pocket depth can vary. For larger items, consider alternative carrying solutions.
