How to determine the size of men's jeans? Tips and necessary data. How long should jeans be?

In general, the length of jeans is calculated from the inseam to the ankle (traditionally in inches).

But it all depends on the style you adhere to and the style of jeans. If these are jeans - trousers, wide jeans - then the middle of the heel for women (maybe lower) and men (meaning classic men's shoes).

If these are classic jeans that you are going to wear with sneakers and sneakers, then the length of the jeans should be such that when you sit down, the jeans do not ride up too high (the effect of open toes or bare legs).

But personally, I like wide-leg pants on both men and women. Unfortunately, more often you meet people in short pants that look too small. This happens if you take classic jeans, but the length is right at the ankle.

If these are fashionable skinny jeans, but this length will obviously be ankle length, or as they say with butt shoes. Moreover, tapered ones are now worn by both women and men.

Besides, what season is it fashionable to roll up jeans. And then the length and style should be such as to allow you to make one or two bends.

1) with classic men's shoes 2 and 3) fashionable variations on the theme

But these ones are too long. See the unsightly bend in the leg below?



Ideal length for skinny jeans



Here's how to wear wide and classic jeans. Length as such is not important here.



Both girls and boys like wide jeans like this. Straight to the floor.



All of the above is purely my personal opinion) Variations are possible, since the boundaries of what is acceptable in the length of jeans for each season are blurred.

Jeans must be several centimeters longer than the leg, and a small fold at the ankle is an indispensable indicator of jeans.

In addition, this type of trousers is placed on shoes and even after that they should have a visible crease.



Jeans are not a classic suit, so they can have different lengths. The best option (for women): if you look at the abrasions, then the length of the trouser legs should end at the place where the heel begins.

If the jeans fit tightly around the lower leg (an option for girls and young women), then various options are possible: a shortened length, an extended length (worn with folds), or you can simply tuck them outward.

For men, the most suitable option is if the jeans form one fold in the front (above sneakers or shoes).

The length of women's denim trousers is determined by the model. Skinny jeans should reach the protruding bone on the leg, that is, the ankle. If these are wide trousers, then they should cover the heel to the middle.

Women's denim trousers have their own fashion. For example, boyfriend jeans are ankle length, although they are wide.



Men's trousers should cover the shoes, but not reach the ground by a couple of centimeters and form no more than one fold in the front.

Ideally, trousers should not wander on the ground, but short ones look funny.



I like jeans that are long and allow them to rip at the very bottom. I don’t know why, but I don’t like ankle-length jeans, although they are fashionable. I also don’t like jeans that fall below the ankle, but jeans that can actually tear at the very bottom, then yes :) Only these, and only loose enough so that the body can breathe and does not strain my genitals... I don’t understand young people who wear tight clothes jeans to such an extent that you could see them from a kilometer away. It’s better to wear clothes than to wear jeans 2-4 sizes too small. Because of my taste, my ass is not like two apples 😀 Loose style, with ragged ends where the ass and genitals are not visible.

It all depends specifically on fashion. Today, women's tapered trousers are worn long so that beautiful folds are formed at the ankles and above. If these are classic straight jeans, for men they should be slightly below the beginning of the heel, but for women they should reach the middle of the heel.

The length of women's jeans should reach the middle of the heel, but if the jeans model is wide, then the length should cover the heel; if the girl has sporty shoes (sneakers or sneakers), then the length of the trouser leg should be 2 cm above the sole.



The length of men's jeans should be accordion-shaped at the bottom (skinny jeans) or straight and the length is allowed up to the beginning of the foot (ankle), and now tucking jeans from the bottom is in fashion.



Nowadays the fashion is for skinny jeans for women and straight jeans for men. If we are talking about men's jeans, then jeans should not fold over the shoes, and should not jump when a man sits down. This about 5-6 centimeters should go to the folds below. As for women's, there are not many options here. Jeans, if they stretch well, then ankle length is suitable, if not, then you need to add 2-3 centimeters.





Men's jeans are in fashion with a little overlay. The length is considered optimal. But if skinny jeans, for example, then fashionistas wear them rolled up and at full length. As for women, everything is more interesting here). Length 7/8 and 3/4, classics, are still relevant. It is important to consider the style. So fashionable boyfriend jeans can be safely worn over shoes, or rolled up in two layers. The same goes for chino style jeans.

Fashion does not dictate the length of your pants. Everyone decides for themselves. Wear jeans in a way that makes you look beautiful and comfortable.



How many people - so many opinions. Fashion is a funny thing. For me, the acceptable length of jeans for men and women is the same - in a standing position it is two - maximum three fingers from the ankle bone. On a man's leg, when the leg is bent at the knee, the jeans should not rise above this bone; in women's jeans, the trousers should slightly fit over the shoes and also when the knee is bent, be below the bone. Here's another opinion from a fashion consultant:

Oddly enough, this is a new post related to style :) I miss you, friends and readers, and did not spare time and pictures for this long-awaited post about the length of trousers/trousers/jeans, so all eyes on length.

The first thing I would like to say is that in two days of targeted observation of women in trousers and jeans, I saw three (!) women who wore the correct length. So, in this sense, there will be few competitors, as well as examples that can be “seen” by people around.

Second - length trousers and jeans depends on their style.

Everyone seems to know that to the middle of the heel is the correct length, and it seems like we heard that it’s universal. But someone says that the rule is outdated. Not outdated. For classic women's trousers, this rule will never become outdated. This is not a question of trend or fashion trends - the question is whether you will look “shot” or not.

I have no idea what kind of girl this is and where she lives, but the photographs of Afisha are indicative...

Flared trousers or jeans

Flared pants should cover your shoes. Preferably completely. This will add height, slimness and reduce a little hips for those who have too much of it. This is roughly what it should look like:

When Victoria Beckham wears jeans, she does it flawlessly.

It is also allowed to wear this way:

With trousers, nothing actually changes:

A lyrical digression about the compatibility of such an aristocratic length with Russian reality.
In essence, it's not as terribly difficult to wear/clean as you might think. But, yes, shot trousers are, of course, more practical. Your will, as they say, and beauty requires, if not sacrifice, then effort.

Tight pants

We're talking about trousers now; we'll talk about jeans below. The fundamental difference is that skinny trousers are not narrow everywhere, they taper towards the bottom. Skinny jeans are tight.

Obviously, pulling tight trousers until they reach the middle of the heel is a worse Fort Boyard test. Skinny trousers should reach the ankle. Not above the ankle, not below the ankle. They should not cover the rise, sticking out from behind, including - this is a common mistake.

When you put on shoes and the heel touches the bottom edge of the trousers or the distance between them is less than a centimeter, most likely the length is chosen well. Correct options:

Skinny jeans

Skinny jeans are for those who either have no hips at all or very, very few. Before you buy them, check how the hips are. Especially if the skinny jeans are low-waisted.

The length is generally the same as for skinny trousers. With the fundamental difference that when you put on skinny jeans, there should not be any footwear (also known as “footprints”), “flesh” nylon socks or any other colors, or tights. Skinny jeans suggest graceful naked leg with thin ankle. No options. If nature has not rewarded you with such a look, then these jeans will not look quite the way you think.

Our own gaze and home mirrors deceive us much more often than we can imagine, unfortunately. This is partly why we have so many poorly dressed women. A little trick: you can admire yourself most realistically in photographs. Especially ones done by accident when you're not posing. Mythical plus a million kilos is good, but not in this case. If you have a big fifth point in the photos, you have a big one. Is it true.

This is what well-chosen skinny jeans of the correct length look like.

And, finally, a selection of “shot” options. There is no need to do this:

Upd: Regarding the accordion in the last photo. The accordion makes logs even from the most graceful legs, this time. I wrote about what skinny jeans should show narrow bare graceful ankles. I highlighted this. Has anyone read it? Do you even see any ankles in this photo? I do not see.

And the last argument - when you wear short pants, a wrinkled suit and jeans that do not suit you either in length or width and create accordions - from the outside, this characterizes you as a person who is extremely careless and unpretentious to life. It's unlikely that your style is meant to demonstrate this.

By the way, many did not notice that the accordions at the bottom are also accompanied by old lady folds at the knee, which are very reminiscent of slipping Soviet tights.

Therefore, the accordion is wrong.

Next up is a tutorial specifically on jeans models, men's trousers and high society fashion.

Do you often wear jeans? How long are they? Ever wondered about the length of your jeans or trousers? Is it correct?

Interesting question, don't you agree? To help you determine the correct jeans length, we decided to write this article. After all, jeans, like other wardrobe items, need to be selected according to your figure, height and individual body parameters.

The correct length directly depends on the cut of the jeans. There is an opinion among fashion designers and designers that the wider the trouser leg, the longer the length of the entire product should be.

How long should women's jeans be?

Let's start with the standard length of jeans, not shortened. First of all, we suggest you deal with flared jeans.

In the case of flared jeans from the knee or from the hip, we have fairly wide legs, so the length of such jeans should be to the floor. If you wear shoes with heels or platforms, your jeans should cover them almost completely. In the case of a smooth ride or a wedge, the same rule applies.

For straight-leg jeans, the leg should reach the middle of the heel. This is ideal.

Let's move on to narrowed models.

In this case, the proportion is the opposite: the narrower the trousers, the shorter their length.

The lengths of skinny jeans vary as follows:

Leg length ¾;

Leg length that covers the heel;

Leg length to ankle.

In any case, the main attention should be focused on the individual characteristics of your body. If nature has endowed you with too thin ankles, you should leave aside cropped jeans and pay attention to longer models, or additionally sew in the trouser leg itself, otherwise the jeans simply will not look like skinny ones.

When choosing jeans, you should also consider the type of shoes you plan to wear with them. Designers advise choosing a separate pair of trousers or jeans for each pair of shoes. But you and I live in the real world and we understand very well that it is not always possible to follow this rule. Therefore, when choosing +/- universal jeans for almost all occasions, try to determine the optimal length depending on the shoes you already have in your wardrobe.

How long should men's jeans be?

Jeans in the wardrobe of a modern man occupy a well-deserved place as a “favorite” item for every day. And this is not surprising, because jeans are so comfortable, they are practical and look very modern and stylish, and besides, they are an excellent replacement for trousers that are too conservative.

But, in order not to spoil the image and favorably emphasize all the advantages of men, among other things, it is worth paying special attention to the length of the jeans. After all, if you wear jeans that are too short, you risk looking simply ridiculous. And if the length exceeds the required length, others will think that your jeans are too big and got them from your older brother.

Basically, modern men choose standard-length jeans that slightly cover their shoes and gather into a small accordion at the bottom. Most often these are slim or regular models (i.e. straight cut).

Short jeans are only good if they are rolled up. In other cases it looks strange. Although modern teenagers like to wear jeans with them rolled up above the ankle. In some cases it looks good and has a right to exist.

To summarize, we can conclude that men's jeans, as well as women's jeans, need to be selected depending on the shoes with which you plan to wear them, your individual body parameters, and, of course, be a little inspired by current fashion trends and allow yourself a little experiment.

And, in conclusion, we will give you some recommendations on how to roll up your jeans correctly to look cool and not get into an awkward situation?

If you decide to embrace the current fashion trends and own a pair of cuffed jeans, here's what you should pay attention to:

Look at your shoes. Now onto the jeans. And again on shoes. After you have rolled up the shanina, the bottom edge of the trouser leg should either be flush with or slightly cover the shoe. That is, if you stand straight, the bottom edge of your pant leg should be in contact with your shoe.

Double cuff. This cuff is folded twice, each step 2 - 3 cm high.

Which shoes to choose:in this case, pay attention to suede derbies or top siders. Also, sneakers or sneakers will look good.

Pinroll cuff. This method differs from others in that the fabric here is folded in two layers and only after that the fold is made. We tuck in 2 steps, the height of each is 2 - 3 cm.

Casual style turn up. The lower part of the trouser leg is folded 4 times, each step is 3-4 cm high.

Jeans are probably one of the most versatile pieces of clothing. Jeans occupy a worthy place not only in women's wardrobes, but also in men's and even children's wardrobes. In this article we will talk about women's jeans, how to choose the right piece of clothing in order to emphasize the advantages of the figure and hide some shortcomings.

Modern designers sew jeans to suit certain types of female figures Therefore, first of all, you need to soberly, objectively assess the characteristics of your own figure, and only after that you can begin to choose the optimal model of denim trousers.

Selecting jeans according to your figure

So, if you have flat buttocks and not too pronounced hips, it makes sense to pay attention to models that flare downwards. It is better to choose jeans in light shades.

High-waisted models are an ideal option for those with a not-so-thin waist.

But if you are a happy representative of an ideal figure, then you can choose jeans with a low waist, which will highlight all the advantages of your figure, making it more prominent, more feminine. Try to avoid models with many different folds - this is an ideal option for girls and women who want to divert attention from the shortcomings of their figure.

When choosing jeans, height plays a big role. For short representatives of the fair half of humanity, a good choice would be jeans with straight legs, which should end where the heel begins. A good option would be cropped jeans, the length of which reaches the top of the shoe. But you shouldn’t choose tight-fitting models that are tapered at the bottom, as they will visually make your height even smaller. You shouldn't choose jeans that are too loose - for the same reasons. Remember the basic rule - jeans should fit perfectly.

As for tall girls, they can pay attention to elongated models with a low waist. It is preferable to choose jeans in light shades. Wide-leg jeans that you can adjust if necessary will also look great. But you shouldn’t choose skinny straight jeans, as they will make your legs look too skinny.

By the way, about thinness. If you think that your hips and buttocks could be more pronounced, and your legs a little thicker, choose jeans made from coarse fabrics in light shades. An excellent option would be models decorated with various buckles, straps, voluminous pockets, and line patterns.

If you are sure that your problem is extra pounds, then choose jeans made of soft and thin fabric that will fit your figure well. Preference should be given to models of dark shades. The legs of denim trousers should not be too narrow or wide: the ideal option is somewhere in the middle. Wide hips can be disguised if you decide to wear jeans with straight and wide legs made of rough, dark-colored fabric.

Length and size

Now a few words about exactly how to buy jeans. The rules are quite simple, but they will allow you to gain confidence that the purchase will definitely be successful.

So, firstly, you should remember that rushing is not the best option if you go to the store - try to allocate enough time to be able to choose, try on, compare. Also, you shouldn’t go shopping alone - it’s better to take a partner (girlfriend, boyfriend) with you, whose opinion you trust.

The purchase will be successful only if you can choose the right size of denim trousers. There is one caveat here: try to choose jeans one size smaller than your actual size. As a rule, when sewing jeans, stretch is used, which has the ability to stretch over time. The ideal option is when, during fitting, you have difficulty pulling on and buttoning your jeans. After a couple of days/weeks of wear, the jeans will “adjust” to your parameters, and you will feel as comfortable as possible.

You should also pay close attention to the length of denim trousers. Unless we are talking about special cropped models, the length of the jeans should be sufficient so that the legs cover approximately the middle of the heel - this rule applies to straight and slightly flared models. Skinny-style models (very tight jeans) should not be pulled up with heels: the optimal length for such models is just below the ankle.

Choosing a color

Color plays an important role when choosing jeans. Dark shades today are considered classics, and therefore they can be called universal. In dark jeans, you can easily go out into nature, on a romantic walk, or to a nightclub. Among other things, dark jeans visually make their owner slimmer and more feminine. But light jeans are an ideal option for summer: such models look more interesting and are easier to combine with a light top: T-shirts, .

Material selection

Another important point is the material from which the jeans are made.. On the one hand, what doubts can there be in this matter? Jeans are denim. Everything is logical. However, today the category of jeans also includes trousers made of denim and corduroy. Jeans and denim are an excellent option for every day: these fabrics wear out for a long time, practically do not deform, and are difficult to stretch. These jeans are the ideal choice for everyday wear. If you want to create a bright, memorable image, you can opt for corduroy jeans, which, however, are highly stretchable, just like stretch. This should be taken into account when choosing jeans, buying models one size smaller.

And the last point that is worth paying close attention to is that there are a very large number of fake jeans on the modern market.

Firstly, you should decide for yourself whether you need the original products of a certain brand, which are not a cheap pleasure. We can buy an expensive but high-quality item, or we can save on our purchase and risk the quality. But in any case, this should be your conscious choice, and for this you need to learn to distinguish original products from fakes.

So, you should first carefully inspect the jeans. When folding trousers along the seams, no folds or distortions should form. The quality of jeans can be guaranteed by neat seams: the threads should not sag, the stitches should be even, there should be no breaks in the stitching or defects.

It’s also worth taking a closer look at the fittings - logos, pull tabs, buttons, zippers, rivets, and so on. Everything must be of high quality and clear. In accordance with the standards, zippers must be made of metal. Rivets can be made from copper. You can see labels either on the back pockets or on the belt - as a rule, labels are made of genuine leather. The absence of a label indicates that the jeans are not original.

By following the rules described above, you can easily find YOUR jeans among the jeans models presented on the modern market - jeans in which you will feel comfortable, free, and easy.

The most popular item in a man's wardrobe is jeans. How to determine the size and what to focus on if you go to the store without a man?

Even if a man prefers an elegant style and goes to work in a formal suit and polished shoes, he still has jeans in his wardrobe. And not just one couple. Why is that? Firstly, these are comfortable clothes. Jeans do not wrinkle, are easy to wash, and always look appropriate. Secondly, jeans visually improve any figure. A small belly turns into abs if you tighten it with a belt. And models made of dark denim completely elongate the legs and narrow them. Thirdly, jeans are sexy! They fit a man's butt, and it is rare that a woman will say that this part of the male body does not attract her. But here the question arises: how to determine the sizes of men's jeans?

The birthplace of jeans is, of course, America. In America, jeans are made according to standard sizes and patterns. Fashion now offers various colors and styles, but men are not at all keen on shopping. It turns out that shopping is almost entirely a woman's responsibility. How can you find out the size of jeans for men and how to choose a specific model so that its length, style, and fit satisfy the taste and wishes of a particular man?

In the case where exclusively American sizes of denim trousers are indicated, the width and length of men's jeans will be required to be measured in advance according to the American system.

On the label of any trousers there is an alphanumeric code, which will give comprehensive information about the product to a knowledgeable person. The letters form a grid of sizes, and the numbers show the names, which are the same for all sizes. By the way, American sizes suggest inches, not centimeters.

If you look at the code, it looks something like this “W37 L35”, where W is the waist for men, and L is the length of the leg along the inseam.

Taking measurements

Take a measuring tape and lay out your man's old jeans in front of you.

• Just in case, it is better to wash your jeans in a machine so that the thick fabric shrinks.
• Now measure W - this is the distance between the edges of the belt. For accuracy, apply the tape at button level.
• Next, multiply the indicated result by two and divide by the length of an inch (2.54).
• Now you need to subtract one from the resulting number, since the trousers nevertheless stretched when worn.

There is an even simpler way: you need to subtract the number 16 from the Russian size of men's pants. So the US size is ready! This rule does not fail, but still, ladies are accustomed to trusting their own calculations, and therefore, to be on the safe side, you can take measurements.

"No!" short pants

Volume is, of course, important, but the length of the jeans is no less important. How to measure it correctly? Again based on an old pair of jeans.

• The two pant legs need to be folded together and aligned in length.
• We measure the length along the inner seam using a measuring tape, starting at the groin and ending at the bottom.
• We also divide the resulting number by 2.54 to get the dimensions in inches.

Knowing how long men's jeans should be, you can easily determine the size of the pair you need. To do this, you can use a special table:

For those who are “outside the standards” This size chart is very convenient, as it will allow you to choose the right model in the store without the presence of a man who is at work at the time or doing other important work.

Basic jeans sizes make life much easier if your guy's figure is within the ideal range. But what if it is too full? Or very skinny? Or maybe he is tall, like Uncle Styopa? How to find out the size of jeans for a special man?

It must be said that choosing clothes by size for such handsome men is, in principle, not the easiest task, but still, trousers are the basis of the wardrobe and they must fit perfectly, and therefore the responsibility increases.

In the case where obvious deviations from the standards are visible in the waist area, a table of men's jeans sizes will help, in which the main selection factors are the waist and hips. How to determine the size of jeans if the guy is very tall? You need to resort to measurements of the waist and leg length. Often the sizes of jeans for obese men can only be found in special stores, and only there the determination of the ideal pair will happen quickly.
