The Coldwater Creek jeans I purchased have a HORRIBLE smell of moth balls or formaldehyde and are absolute GARBAGE. The terrible smell won't go away, despite washing them once in cold water and even after placing them 2 different times in the dryer on the lowest setting with scented dryer sheets. The room where I have placed them also smells of musty old moth balls. User's recommendation: Do Not Buy Products from Coldwater Creek.
