Customer Reviews Lee Legendary Straight Leg Jeans

The legs are a little too tight!

I Have always bought Lee jeans and they were always well made. But this pair was totally made wrong and fit was way off. I believe they are not being check before leaving manufacturers plant. Very disappointed. The hips bunch up and not made correctly. Hope this review helps.

These look like and fit a "boy shape" (no waist/hips/butt) like straight leg jeans rather than bootcut. I'm 5'5, ~140#, fairly fit/slim and wear between a size 8 and 12 depending on the brand (I have a size 8 in [stretchy] old navy bootcut jeans and another pair of old navy in size 10 high waisted that are a bit too snug). I opted to try these in a size 12 and while the waist (and even most of the butt until just before it reaches the back of the thigh) is okay (slightly loose) the bottom of the butt and back of the thighs are baggy (oddly not so much in the front). There's also some "poofing" of material on either side of the thigh just below the hip before it starts to taper down the leg which is probably lack of quality control more than anything (if I'd ordered 5 pair of the same size in these jeans I'm certain each one would've fit different - it was tempting to try this to find the best fitting pair - I do this at the few retail places left to try on clothes - but that's a lot of $ to put upfront and such a hassle dealing with buying clothes online). The 30" inseam is a bit too short for my liking and the material/wash is only just okay - not loving it like I thought I would from the picture. Pants seem to be designed with the notion that if you're thick in the waist you must be thick in the hip, butt and thighs too which gives those of us with a more slender build really loose, baggy looking pants through the butt and thighs. Pretty frustrating. I usually just get men's jeans since they fit my build better without looking like I'm swimming in them (like so many women's jeans do) but thought I'd see if I could find a pair of comfortable women's jeans that are more figure flattering on me. No such luck with these but I've had worse. I just ordered a pair of women's ultra lux comfort with flex motion bootcut jeans in size 10 hoping that between the stretchy waist and (hopefully) slimmer butt and legs will work for the look/fit I'm hoping for.

I ordered a tall but they are too short, even when wearing flats. I'm 5'8" tall.

Too much fabric in the thigh area, as with the pair I bought last year. Regular fit should not fit like this at all. I have 19 inch thighs and do not want skinny jeans either.

Been trying to find a pair of Lee jeans with a 30 inch inseam. Found this one and bought it. Fit was alittle tight. Legs seem to fit more like skinny jeans.

I really like these jeans but the straight leg and boot cut doesn't fit the same. The straight leg I have to size up from the size I wear in the boot cut. I took 2 stars because the messed my order up twice and then was sold out before I could get the second pair I ordered. Very disappointed they replaced the wrong jeans with the exact same wrong jeans then didn't have the correct ones.

For the price, I suppose they are ok but nothing great. The waist is awful, it does not stay put.

Decided to give this brand a try after wearing Levi's (straight leg) most of the time. Really liked the color and according to the size chart, a 10 long should've been perfect. This is the usual size I buy with no issues. I found this style/fit too loose thru the seat and thighs however. I'm 5'10 and 143 lbs. I will go ahead and wear them as they aren't terrible, just don't fit great.

Size runs small. Should have gotten these in a bigger size

These jeans fit very tight. I should have sizes up one size.

I absolutely LOVE the Legendary Regular Fit Straight Leg jeans - when the legs aren't "skinny" legs instead of "regular" legs! I've ordered four pairs - two pairs were perfect and two were too tight in the upper legs. Why is there a difference? I returned two pairs. I would recommend these to a friend with the caution that the comfort of the upper legs will differ.

The Long size on the grey jean is 1 or 2 inches shorter than the long size on 3 other colors I purchased of the same jean. The replacement pair Lee sent is also too short, so I'm returning both.

I love blue jeans and wish I could find good old western denim blue jeans, you know the kind Lee used to make! Now you buy 2 pairs the same style and size and they don't fit the same because when cutting the material at the pattern stage you stack it too high and there is a difference in size within that lot.....stop stacking too high and maybe the the sizing will be right with every pair. Very disappointing from my favorite jean company.

Loose in legs

Tight in waist and hips bit baggy in the seat.

Really nice, well made jeans. The legs in the size 2 were too loose for my liking. I returned them and ordered a size 2 in the Legendary style and they fit perfectly.

I find a big difference in the quality and sizing of the Legendary Fit jesns depending on whether they are made in Egypt or Bangeledesh. Those made in Egypt are much higher quality. I am returning a pair of Nightshade made in Bangeledesh with all the se complaints listed here. I will not purchase anything except the Egyptian made ever again!

I love the jeans and quality, but the Lee brand just runs very small. Everytime I become hopeful and each time I'm disappointed. I will not be buying again.

These size 2 jeans fit loose. They sag. There is too much fading in the thighs. It's a disappointing purchase, but cost-wise, not worth sending back. I've been buying Lee Jeans for 40 years. I've recently switched to women's jeans after wearing men's for a better fit. I'm slim and straight. But, I am frustrated by the pre-fading in the women's jeans. Why can't you sell us the same quality fabric that men's jeans are constructed from and that are a single, solid color throughout the fabric.? These gray jeans would be so nice if gray all over and not faded white across the front of the thighs. Over the years, your quality has dropped in that jeans are no longer sized consistently. I'm disappointed in this recent pair of Lee jeans. Women want better jeans.

I returned the jeans because they were short. I ordered medium, 30 inches, and received medium, 28 inches! I liked the pants, but not as advertised. Also, very slim in legs.

Recommending to a friend would depend on body type. Good jeans, just not a good fit for me.

Nice jeans, absolutely poor fit; way too small for 14S.

I kept these even though I don't like them. Color is not my idea of GREY. More like MUD. Don't fit properly because they're MADE IN EGYPT. Won't be ordering again.

I like Lee jeans but this pair I feel was sized wrong or were cut in between a 10 & a 12
