This is not what was described. I ordered relaxed fit. No where on the jeans does it say relaxed fit. I have others by Lee that say on the info tag that it is relaxed fit. I'm an older woman that likes the extra room and movement the relaxed fit allows. I'm very disappointed in this purchase although I will keep as they fit my niece. I have been frequently disappointed lately in purchases from Amazon. Either the advertised description does not match ..(although you can usually get a refund, this is very annoying) or it is entirely different from what is pictured! I've also noticed that many items come from China. Amazon use to be my favorite place to shop...now I feel like I'm at Wal-Mart!

I usually wear the Lee Relaxed Fit Straight leg jeans and when I saw the Lee Riders in a similar fit on sale @ Amazon, decided to give them a try. I get the "long" when I buy the regular Lees but these Riders are much longer - I had to hem them! But what I really like about them is the lower waist (Riders vs. regular Lee) - it's much more comfortable fit in that area. Have gotten use to the Lee's material (more stretch and lighter weight) so the Riders are like 99% cotton and heaver weight, which has been a nice change. So be ready for heavier, less stretch and longer length if you get a 'long' in this brand - you just might like it!

these are at least a full size smaller than my Lee relaxed fit jeans, they advertise them as relaxed fit but when you get the pants they don't have anything on the pants labeling or in the packaging that indicates they are relaxed fit.
NOT Relaxed Fit!
Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2017
Unfortunately these jeans are being sold as relaxed fit. These are NOT relaxed fit jeans. I have bought Lee jeans for many years and purchase most from Amazon. Every pair I have or still own are marked on the inside waist band as relaxed fit. These are not nor is the product tag marked as such. This specific order is a replacement for the jeans shipped on my original order so it is not just a one time mistake. Please know that Lee jeans are of great quality and very reasonably priced. So this is not about Lee jeans per se. This is about selling something that is described inaccurately and the inconvenience it has caused me in having to return an item two separate times.

I have several pairs of Lee's Relaxed Fit jeans in size 10, which I have worn for years. I decided to replace an old worn pair with a new pair. The fit is not the same. The jeans are tight in the seat and upper thigh, and they do not feel as comfortable as my other relaxed fit jeans in the same size. I had to return them.
Disappointment in Size Difference
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2016
These jeans were sized wrong. I bought these in this color and in black. The black fit perfect for 16P but the blue ones fit as 14P. The blue ones had a tag stating 16P but were definitely NOT that size. I had already washed and dried both pair before I discovered the difference. Sooooooooo disappointed in this as it was a need for me and not a want.
Riders by Lee Indigo Women's Relaxed-Fit Straight-Leg
Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2016
I am very pleased with the Riders by Lee Indigo Women's Relaxed-Fit Straight-Leg. After Lee Jeans changed the jeans I used to wear, I started searching for something comparable. Although the material on these jeans is not as heavy as the previous jeans I wore, I am still pleased. These jeans are very comfortable. They do relax somewhat by the end of the day, but very comfortable. The only negative review that I would give these jean is they fade rather quickly. When washing jeans, I turn the them wrong side out, wash in cold water and hang them to dry. Even doing this only gives me about 4 wears before the jeans are faded significantly. But if you don't mind the faded look, these jeans are comfortable and I would buy them again.

It seems jean styles and fit keep changing so I just settled on searching for a good pair. These fit comfortably for me. I tried a Monroe classic fit and found they were too form fitting in the legs...they fit but I prefer something looser...not like a legging. These Relaxed Fit feel more comfortable with slightly more room in the legs. The front pockets are also still functional whereas they were cut and sewn short in the Monroe Classics. I am washing and drying them now so will post if there is a problem after that....otherwise, I'm happy with them and am ordering more.

These are a good fit if you're the right shape for them. I have a very hour-glass figure, with a narrower waist and fuller through the bum and thighs. These fit at the waist AND the bum, so I'd say they are great for women of this shape. A few dangling threads here and there, but they seem reasonable quality for the price.

I bought 3 pair of these jeans in the three colours. the light ones were a little snug at the waist but I can wear them, I had to cut 2 and a half inches off the legs, the dark blue fit just fine but I had to cut 4 and a quarter inches off the legs and the black pair fit fine in the waist but were a little big in the thigh, and I had to cut 3 inches off the legs. All were the same style and cut but all three fit differently and were different lengths.

These are not the same sized jeans as were once available at my local Walmart. I could go into Walmart, grab 'my size' off the shelf and go home knowing they would fit. That size and this size do not line up - I'd say it's off by at least 2 full pant sizes. Disappointing. I can't order them again if I can't trust the size will fit me :( Now where do I get my tall jeans?

I have bought these jeans many times and it seems that sizing is getting more bizarre. I have these in blue that are smaller than a the same jeans in black despite the blue jeans being a size larger! Labels inside show they are the same model number.

Very strange fit. Too tight in the waist and big on the butt. I am not very hippy but after recently having my fourth child my stomach is certainly a bit fluffy. This was a very uncomfortable and unflattering fit. I purchased the super soft stretchy denim straight leg version size 14 by the same brand and loved them!

Wasn't sure what size to order. Have other Riders that are too big so ordered a size down. Found the rise for me to be a little long & the fit was a little to large. Overall very nice looking jean. But ended up returning them.

Very comfortable jeans. I have a hard time getting pants to fit, 5'8" and 185lbs pear shaped. The size 16 fit my waist but too tight on my thighs and butt. I returned them and ordered a size 18. The thighs and butt fit fine but the waist was 4 inches too big. This is normal for my body type. I just took in the waist as best I could. The bottom of the leg is a bit too flared to be in style, but I don't mind not being in style, just want to be comfortable. Great quality and great service from Amazon as usual.

Finally a pair of women's jeans that fit a woman's body! Only a bit of stretch to make them comfortable and the proper shape for ladies with a slightly smaller waist and some hips. The pockets are actually functional as well which was a nice surprise. They are a mid weight denim and seem well constructed, hopefully they hold up. I will definately buy more!

I normally love this brand. I have purchased it often and have never had any issues buying in online or in store before. Fit is very unusual. Too large in the legs and bum areas but perfect in the waist. Also the jeans were obviously used. There were no stickers or tags attached and items were found in the pockets! Overall I am very disappointed.

These jeans were not RELAXED fit as stated in description. Because of this they did not fit as well as the black ones I ordered and wear so I had to return them. The material and workmanship was good and color was OK. (I prefer darker --- that's why just OK) Had these been 'relaxed fit' in reality ----- they definitely would not have been returned.

I found these jeans were far to baggy in the legs. If you have a small waist and large thighs, these are the jeans for you. I take a size 10 petite and these jeans were the correct length but far to baggy for me. I found the classic fit much better.

I did not like these jeans. The legs were tooooooo wide. I washed them hoping they would shrink. No Luck so I took them in 1 an1/2 inches.Are straight leg relaxed jeans wider than straight leg jeans if not then I did not receive the product I ordered.I would not advise anyone to buy these jeans they are horrible. I am on a fixed income so therefore had no choice but to fix them I would not order them again

These are the best fitting black jeans I have found in a long time!! Still not enough cotton content, but better than some that have way too much polyester and attract hair and lint terribly!

The waist is too large for the hip circumference.Otherwise exactly as predicted fo fit and holds its colour well even after repeated washing. Would buy them again.
