jeans measuring guide
How to determine your perfect size |
 |
|
 |
Find the ideal jeans – and fit – without trying them on! Follow this guide for hassle-free jean shopping. All you need is measuring tape, an old pair of jeans that fit just right, and a little know-how. For the most accurate figures, do not measure over clothing (wear intimates only).
|
 |
waist
Bend to one side to find your natural crease. Measure this area keeping tape parallel to the floor and comfortable (not too tight). |
 |
hips
Stand with feet together and measure the fullest part of your hips and rear, keeping tape loose. |
 |
rise
High – waistband sits above natural waist, covering the navel
Mid (or Regular) – sits just below the navel
Low – sits 2-3” below the navel
|
 |
inseam
Lay your old jeans flat, choose a leg, and measure from crotch seam to hem. |
