Lee Daren Zip Fly Jeans

Lee is a legendary American heritage brand founded in Kansas in 1889. Known for its durable workwear roots, Lee revolutionized denim by introducing the first zipper fly in jeans. The brand has evolved into a global fashion icon, emphasizing sustainability through initiatives like the one seen on this tag, which features recycled fabrics.

While Lee was born in the United States, its manufacturing is now distributed across a global supply chain including facilities in Vietnam, Bangladesh, and Mexico. Today, the brand is owned by Kontoor Brands, Inc., a publicly-traded apparel company that was spun off from VF Corporation in 2019. Kontoor Brands is headquartered in North Carolina and continues to manage the legacy of both Lee and Wrangler.
