However, with a special ink, the new jeans of Lee Japan are“printed out.”That has made a substantial cut in the amount of use of water and chemicals. And Lee Japan has cleared problems like discoloration, getting blurred and so on with their original technique. Then the new jeans were born succeeding to the goodness of ever usual jeans.
The new jeans are made of“Pre-organic Cotton”that’s expected usually unknown. So let us explain it simply.
