Full details

The Lee Workwear Carpenter Short in 'Just Me' blue is designed for adult males seeking a blend of retro style and casual comfort. Its key benefit is the relaxed fit and durable 100% cotton denim, offering both structure and ease of movement. A potential caveat is the rigid nature of the denim, which may require a brief break-in period for optimal softness. This short features a longer cut, subtle heritage pocket details, and an adjustable waist for personalized comfort, making it ideal for everyday wear and outdoor activities.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel stiff or uncomfortable after first wear.

This is common with rigid denim. Wear the shorts for a few hours or wash them once following the care instructions. The denim will soften with use.

Waistband feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the drawstring or button/zip closure as needed. If the sizing is consistently off, consider if a different waist size from the available range would be more suitable.

Color appears to fade unevenly.

Ensure you are washing the shorts in cold water and avoiding harsh detergents or bleach. Washing inside out can also help preserve the color.
