FAQ

Does LRD have a size chart?

No.

At LRD, we source and launder thrifted, used denim clothes to create our one-of-a-kind garments. While we prioritize finding plus-size men's and women's denim clothes, the sizes we come across are random. As a result, creating a uniform size chart for our products is not practical.

Moreover, the process of upcycling used clothes is not a standardized one. It involves a high level of craftsmanship, and there is no standard for how brands and denim designers combine measurements to create different fits.

To help you choose the right size, we provide detailed garment measurements in the photos accompanying each listing. We recommend comparing these measurements to those of an item in your wardrobe that fits you correctly and is measured flat. If you have any questions about sizing or fit, please don't hesitate to contact us, and we will be happy to assist you.

Are all LRD garments Unisex?

No.

The item title will contain the word Unisex and the description will give the Original manufacture size as ‘men’. 

My intent is to distinguish those pieces whose FIT is  suitable for female or male body frame.

In my thrifting experience I have not yet found manufactured denim brands labeled as Unisex sizes.  I have only found Men or Women. The best way to determine if a LRD garment is a fit for you is to compare the LRD garment’s measurements provided in PHOTOS.

Can I custom order a piece I like in my size or color of choice?

Each LRD garment is handcrafted one at a time, one-of-a-kind and is only available in the size and colors posted in the listing. I currently do not offer custom service.

Please subscribe to receive LRD emails or follow me on Instagram for future announcements should I offer custom service and when new pieces drop.

 

Does LRD alter garments?

I do not offer the service of after purchase alterations.

Please visit lucyrootsdenim.com to shop and purchase from my catalog of ready-to-wear designs.

 

What should I keep in mind about garments made from thrifted denim?

Due to the handcrafted process in which LRD garments are created, pieces may contain variations in color, pattern, texture or have natural hide marks in the leather.

Thrifted, used, laundered denim clothes may have discolorations, distressing or other irregularities. These fabric ‘flaws’ add to the character of the piece and are an artistic design choice that speaks to the authenticity of LRD garments and my commitment to honoring the Earth’s resources used to make those thrifted clothes.
