Customer Reviews Lee Instantly Slim Straight Leg Jeans

These jeans fit and feel good on. I gave them a four out of five stars because the straight leg is somewhat flared, and the fabric collects lint.

I have worn Lee Jeans for about 10+ years. I am a 67 yr. old senior and yes, still wear jeans. Due to weight changes of the years, I have worn 4 different sizes. I think because I wash and dry in the dryer, they have shrunk over time, but I will continue to buy from Lee Jeans. I also like buying the long because I am not that tall, but I like the longer length.

These are great pants, they fit well out of the package and, as advertised, slim your shape. However, after washing, they shrink and therefor I would recommend sizing up. The color is great and the look good and are well made.

The leg of this jean is not straight. The hip and thigh areas have a lot of extra fabric. They become straight from the knee down. They are constructed more like jodhpurs. They are at the tailor now (an extra expense) to take in the hips and thighs. Hope that makes them fit like a straight leg should.

The website said they run small and recommended going a size up. That's what I did and they are too big. Very disappointing!

The jeans were too tight, I think because of the slimming panel. I ordered the short length but they were very long.

The rise is an inch (or more) shorter than my vintage Lee jeans that fit me perfectly. I was hoping for a replicate, but these don't come up to my natural waistline. I would call them mid-rise jeans.

. . . LEE jeans. Have been trying to get new ones for a LONG time but had to wait through the 'skinny leg' revolution. And still find most Lee's are still very narrow except for wide leg which are TOO wide for my taste. Now I need a 'high-rise' as mid-rise slides down my hips due to my apple shape. Unfortunately, these high-rise jeans weren't. They only came as high as my sole existing pair 16M mid-rise (which I can still wear) AND were lower in the back than the front. The 16s were too tight in the waist. When I bent over in the 18s they pulled down far enough in the back to show the a** crack - VERY uncomfortable. Both pairs were returned. Have no idea whose or where I'll find jeans that fit as Lee has ALWAYS been my jean of choice.

I ordered the same product a few years back but the sizing has changed. I compared the old with the new jeans and should have ordered a larger size.

Only buy jeans directly from Lee if you have already tried on the jeans and know they fit. Shipping free exchanges are for only the same design. These jeans are not flattering to me, so I will probably only wear them for yard work. Maybe donate to Goodwill. In my opinion they are not relaxed fit jeans.

I loved these pants when I first put them on, but within the first wear the front belt loop broke. I really was excited to find nice pants with belt loops, but it feels like they're decorative more than anything.

I am wearing them but not crazy about these pants. Material is very thin. Does not feel like denim at all. They are looser than I was expecting. They look OK on but not great

These jeans are made cheaper than previous!

Lee jeans do not fit like they used to and I have only purchased lee for many years. No longer can get tall ( if avaialble in style desired, always out of stock) Usual size for years is no longer comfortable based on styling changes

not likely it seems Lee has altered their sizes and no longer can purchase tall sizes

I had a pair in darker color that fit fine. These NO way to small. Only difference was color the fit no. Had the nerve not to refund my postage

Glad to see high rise. Not quite high enough to fit comfortably at the waist and quite tight in the thigh.

I suppose I just wish the 'classics' were still available. I have 3 pair of Lee womens jeans, circa 1990. Non-stretch (I HATE stretch), true high rise (at least 1 1/2 " higher than these supposed 'high rise') pockets only a couple inches deep and way too close-fitting in the bum and crotch. They are size 8, just like my wonderful 1990 size 8s. I'm not likely to be satisfied by any of the modern models, since I want a pair of jeans that fit me like my 30+ year old jeans (which still fit me perfectly.) Guess I will have to shop the thrift stores.

I purchased the "long" length of these and another pair with the identical description (but in a different color). The other pair is perfect and this pair is more than an inch shorter.

Pants fit fine before washing. Leg bottom opening shrank from 15.5" wide to 12" wide. Overall pants shrank quite a bit. Was hoping for a looser fit than trendy skinny jeans, that did not happen.

I purchased three pairs of the high waist insta slim jeans, two at the same time. Then a third pair hoping they would be true high waist. None were. The waist dips in the back in the center. There's a crimp on my belt when I take the jeans off. The last pair, paradise I think is the color, have folds in the fabric when I stand up. I have to pull the legs down every time. I expected better quality and workmanship from Lee jeans. I will not purchase another pair of these jeans.

Legs are too big. Buttonhole is not quite right and are very hard to button.

I don't like how they have shortened the pockets

I thought I purchased grey pants; however, when they arrived the color was actually somewhere between grey and beige. I did not like the color so I sent them back.

I love the relaxed fit jeans. The reasons for the 3 star review (otherwise they would have been 5 stars) are 2 fold: one is that most of the jeans are only mid-rise. I don't like that. But I buy them if I have no choice. I wish there were more high rise selections. Those are so comfortable I can sleep in them! Second is they don't all fit the same. Some are tighter than others. I've bought enough of them online and in stores (when I can find them) to know when they're my size they're perfect. Once in a while (actually 3 times lately) I get some that are much tighter overall than the rest. Rather than spend the money to send them back I do wear them when I have no choice, but they are very very uncomfortable. And if I gain a pound or two I can't wear them at all while the others are fine. Someone needs to do something about quality control!
