👖 How to Measure for Jeans
For the best fit, measure a pair of jeans that fit you well, rather than measuring your body directly. Lay them flat on a hard surface.
1. Waist
- Lay the jeans flat on a hard surface.
- Pull the waistband tight so the front and back align.
- Measure across the top edge and double the number.
2. Inseam
- Measure from the crotch seam down the inside of the leg to the hem.
- Keep the tape straight.
3. Front Rise
- Measure from the crotch seam up to the top of the waistband.
- This determines if they are high, mid, or low rise.
4. Thigh
- Measure across the leg, 1 inch below the crotch seam.
- Double this number for the full thigh circumference.
