FAQs
What makes these shorts 'Extreme Motion'?
The 'Extreme Motion' designation comes from the high-stretch twill denim and the design incorporating an elasticated waist, both of which work together to provide maximum flexibility and comfort for a wide range of movement.
What is the material composition of these shorts?
The shorts are primarily made from 71% cotton and 28% recycled polyester, with a small percentage for other components. This blend aims for durability, comfort, and a reduced environmental impact.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the Lee sizing chart provided. Measure your waist and compare it to the specified waist sizes (e.g., UK 28, 30, 32) to find the best fit. The elasticated waist offers some give.
Can these shorts be worn for formal occasions?
These are casual shorts. While the clean black finish and classic styling offer versatility, they are best suited for casual or semi-casual settings, not formal events.
Are there other colors available?
This guide specifically covers the 'Sion' black wash. Availability of other colors may vary by retailer and season.
How durable is the recycled polyester in the blend?
Recycled polyester is known for its durability and resistance to stretching and shrinking, contributing to the overall longevity of the garment alongside the cotton content.
What is the advantage of the elasticated waist?
The elasticated waist provides a more comfortable and forgiving fit compared to a traditional fixed waistband. It adapts better to body movements and slight fluctuations in size.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose in the waist.
The elasticated waist offers some flexibility. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, consider if a different waist size from the available range would be more suitable. Ensure you are referring to the correct size chart.
Color fading after washing.
Always wash with similar colors in cold water and use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Turn the shorts inside out before washing to protect the outer surface.
Fabric feels less rigid than expected.
These shorts are designed with high-stretch denim for comfort and movement. If you prefer a more rigid feel, this particular model may not be the best fit. Consider other Lee denim options with less stretch.
