The key to a well-fitting pair of jeans is measuring your body properly (and of course trying the jeans on). If you are shopping online (and can't try the jeans on), body measurements are extra important. Let us show you how to measure. And then you can use our size charts below to determine your correct jeans size (both waist size and jeans length!) How to Measure Jeans Waist Size: Measure around your natural waistline (circumference). Your waistline is usually situated just above your belly button (narrowest part of torso). Still not sure where your waist is? Stand in front of a mirror, and bend to one side. Your waistline is simply where you can see a natural indentation in torso on this side. Take a relaxed measurement, and keep the measuring tape parallel with the floor.
How to Measure Leg Length (Inseam): Measure from your crotch to your ankle (where you want your jeans leg to end). Ask a friend for help measuring! If you already own a pair of perfect fitting jeans, simply do your measurement on those jeans. Start at the crotch seam and measure to the bottom of the pant leg.
