Lee no longer has the quality control that is needed for consistent sizing and fabric make up
Before you purchase any LEE Women's Relaxed Fit Straight Leg Jeans, check out the fabric mix. That is, they say this particular Jean is 98% cotton and 2% spandex, but this is NOT the case. I purchased three of these, same size, 3 different colors. WOW- there is NO, NOT ANY consistency in the actual measurements or fabric make up on these jeans. I found the ones made in Mexico are not made to specs at all.
The one's made in Egypt are great, and as described. I did luck out on 2 of the 3 pairs. Had to return the pair made in Mexico. Even though all 3 pants were the same size, the cut from the one's made in Mexico were 1.5" shorter inseam. Legs (each) were 1" too big on each leg. The material just immediately stretched out. Been buying these specific Lee Jeans for decades and these past few years to current, are so inconsistent in the measurements as well as the material. If Lee is making the same jean, why does each color have a different fabric mix? Why are the one's made in Mexico, not cut/sized as described? Shouldn't this particular model of Lee Jeans be consistent in sizing and fabric content, no matter the color or where it is made.
