The verdict
Fit
Same straight, mid-rise silhouette as the Mel line. Stone blue is a lighter, lived-in wash; the lighter tone may hide wear less dramatically.
Quality
Same quality as River Indigo—mid-premium seaming and finishing. Stone wash is slightly more forgiving with staining.
Is the price fair?
Same value as the River Indigo version. Price is consistent with fit and dye precision.
Best for
Shoppers preferring a lighter, softer-toned indigo that looks pre-worn and pairs easily with light layers.
Care
Stone-washed denim can continue fading; wash inside-out and cold to slow further lightening if desired.
What owners report about Re/Done jeans
Owners report rigid, heavyweight denim that holds its shape through repeated wear and washing, with a fit that hugs the waist and seat and relaxes through the leg. Reviewers describe the jeans as comfortable straight away with no break-in needed, and the free lifetime repair policy (owner pays shipping) comes up as a plus. Complaints are smaller-scale: some wearers get lower-back gapping that needs tailoring, the button-fly hardware can feel flimsy over time, and pricing sits at the luxury end.
- Strengths
- Heavyweight denim that keeps its shape after washing and frequent wear, with reviewers reporting no break-in period.
- Watch out for
- Lower-back waist gapping that requires tailoring, flimsy-feeling button-fly buttons, and luxury pricing are the recurring gripes, and reworked-vintage pairs vary more in wash and size than the standard line.
- Sizing
- Reviewers report true-to-size fit with a high rise and long inseams; wearers with slimmer thighs may find the leg loose, and reworked-vintage pairs are less consistent in sizing than the standard line.
