Lee Vintage Pants Herringbone Black/White Ladies Size 16P

Lee was founded in 1889 in Kansas and quickly became a cornerstone of American workwear, producing durable garments for railroad workers, cowboys, and laborers. Known for innovation—like early zip fly jeans and practical work uniforms—Lee built its reputation on function, comfort, and longevity.

Over time, Lee pieces transitioned from pure utility into everyday fashion, with vintage items especially valued for their tailoring details and classic fabrics, like this herringbone weave.

Style History

Herringbone fabric, recognizable by its subtle zig-zag pattern, has roots in traditional tailoring and military garments. Often used in trousers for its durability and texture, it brings a slightly elevated feel to otherwise classic silhouettes like pleated pants.
