Party & Bullshit
Words by Elliott Layland Photos by August 23, 2014

Sometimes great things happen by chance. Like Henry David Lee deciding he not only wanted to feed the backbone of America-­ the cowboys, farmers, railroad men and factory crews-­ but dress them, too. Clothing designed with a purpose, sturdy jeans that would last the throws of the day.

Then there are those great things that happen with time. Like the evolution of a brand over 125 years. From the invention of the overall, the Lee Union Alls, to the Railroad Jacket with triple stitching. From the 101 zips, the hair on hide patch, to the 101 Jacket. To showing ladies some love with the Lady Lee Riders. The list goes on.

Then some time great things just happen just because you feel like it. Like a party. To celebrate getting older but younger at heart, all at once, Lee Jeans did just that.
