The Lee X platform expands upon the brand’s best-selling Extreme Motion line, which introduced stretch fabric and flex waistbands to men’s denim nine years ago. Lee X hallmarks those features and incorporates new ones designed for comfort and performance. Key features include an updated gusset for movement, premium fabrics with TruTemp™365® technology and moisture-wicking, and being responsibly crafted with sustainable details like a patch made from recycled apple skins.

“We’ve been working tirelessly developing Lee X to bring game-changing innovation to our consumers, so I’m excited to see these products in market,” said Jimmy Shafer, global vice president for Lee. “The jeans are built on a foundation of performance fabrics, but engineered to retain that true denim feel. And the casual pants are incredibly versatile; you’ll want to wear them everywhere. I’m confident that Lee X is creating a new value equation in the market and that these styles will become new favorites of our current loyalists while attracting new consumers to the brand.”
