FAQs
What makes the 'Energy Blast' finish unique?
The 'Energy Blast' finish is a specific super-washing process that gives the denim a pronounced tint and a rugged, slightly distressed appearance, reminiscent of a well-worn, boyish look.
What is the blend of the denim fabric?
The shorts are made from a blend of cotton and lyocell, offering durability and breathability from cotton, and softness and a good drape from lyocell.
Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?
While made from a breathable cotton-lyocell blend, the 14oz denim has a moderate weight. They are comfortable for typical summer days but might be warmer than lighter-weight shorts in extreme heat.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Lee. The 'Size 32' in the product title indicates the waist size in US inches. It's recommended to measure your waist and compare it to the chart.
Can I significantly alter the color or finish?
The 'Energy Blast' finish is intentionally designed. Washing the shorts aggressively or using harsh detergents may alter this unique finish, so it's best to follow the provided care instructions to preserve the intended look.
What does 'regular fit' mean for these shorts?
'Regular fit' means the shorts are designed to be comfortable without being too tight or too baggy. They offer a classic silhouette that is neither slim nor oversized.
How much stretch is in the denim?
The denim has a 'small amount of stretch' for everyday comfort, meaning it provides a little give to accommodate movement without significantly compromising the denim's structure or classic feel.
Troubleshooting
Denim appears faded or discolored unevenly.
This is a characteristic of the 'Energy Blast' super-washed finish. The pronounced tint and rugged look are intentional design elements. Ensure you are washing according to care instructions to maintain the intended appearance.
Shorts feel too stiff initially.
The 14oz denim may feel a bit stiff at first. Wear them regularly, and they will soften and mold to your body with time and wear. Washing them according to the care instructions can also help to break them in.
Stitching or patch appears loose.
Inspect the affected area. If minor, a small repair may be possible. For significant issues, contact customer support regarding warranty or repair options.
