- How does the Hampton fit compare with Polo's slim jeans?
- The Hampton is relaxed through the seat and thigh with a straight leg, so it is noticeably roomier than the brand's slim Varick cut. If you want a trimmer silhouette, size down or look at the slim line.
- Does the stretch denim shrink or stretch out?
- The cotton-elastane blend holds its size through washing but can relax slightly at the knee and seat after a day of wear. Wash cold and line dry to limit shrinkage and fading.
- What is the rise on this jean?
- It sits at the natural waist with a mid rise, which keeps the relaxed leg from looking slouchy. Men who prefer a low rise may find it higher than expected.
- Is the light indigo see-through or heavy enough for cool weather?
- The denim is a mid-weight cotton, opaque and fine for spring and fall. It is lighter than a heavy rigid jean, so it is less warm in deep winter.
- What sizes and lengths are available?
- It comes in a broad run of waist sizes and several inseam lengths, so most men can find a combination without tailoring. Check the size chart, since the relaxed cut already adds room.
- How should I care for the light indigo wash?
- Wash inside out in cold water and hang dry to slow fading. Skip fabric softener, which can break down the stretch fibers over time.
