Poor quality
January 4, 2012
"I initially thought these jeans would be good for work. They were a good price and they were carpenter jeans, something alot of places don't make any more. However I have only worn my first pair less than 10 times and the corners of the back pockets are already tearing away from the jeans and are developing holes. I think the jeans have only been washed a handful of times. I will not be buying these again...only wish I hadn't bought 4 pair from the outset."
Pros: Affordable
Cons: Not Stylish

Need my size!
December 19, 2011
"I am a 36x36 and for some reason it's extremely difficult to find all the colors/styles in that size. I love the carpenter jeans and have worn them for ages...it's just irritating that my size isn't widely available."
Pros: Affordable, Comfortable

"Jeans are nice, fit very well, price was right, and I received them faster than expected. The color chart however, had me believing that I was buying black jeans, which is what I wanted, but they were a very dark blue. If I could get them in black or charcoal color, I'd be much happier."
Pros: Stylish, Affordable, Comfortable
Cons: need black or charcoal color

Great fitting jeans
November 27, 2011

Pros: Stylish, Affordable, Comfortable
Cons: durability

Carpenter Jeans
July 30, 2011
"My son has moved gracefully from the children's line to the men's line through Lee.com. I have been getting his jeans from this website since he first started wearing jeans, and will continue to do so for many more years to come. I did notice that the child sizes material is softer and comes out of the dryer ready to fold. I have to iron the men sizes (my washer/dryer is a single unit and does effect the outcome of the laundy; most households have a separate washer and dryer, which would not generate the same results)."
Pros: Stylish, Affordable, Comfortable, size availibility

Excellent Jeans
June 6, 2011
"I have an athletic build with large thighs. These are the only jeans I have find comfortable and they have a perfect pocket for my cell phone. I have read complaints about holes at the top of the rear pockets. That depends on the color. While I have had some pre-worn colors give out in less than a year, the deep indigo usually last two years of work in a sheetmetal shop."
Pros: Comfortable
