Since its inception in 1996, Lee National Denim Day has adhered to a simple philosophy: one day, one cause, one cure®. In 15 years, that philosophy has become a mantra for millions and has made an impact Lee Jeans never dreamed possible.
The 2011 campaign sought to change up a few things. With celebrity ambassador, Mike Rowe, (Discovery Channel's "Dirty Jobs" spokesman) the campaign was not only humorous, but was also authentic. For the past 14 years the program has been based a $5 donation model. This year we dreamed big and asked instead for donations to come in the form of what you would normally spend on a pair of jeans.
