Jeans Size Guide: How to Measure and Order Online
Jeans sizes vary a lot between brands and even between styles from the same brand. A tape measure and the listing's size chart beat the number on your old pair.
Measure yourself
- Waist. Measure around the narrowest part of your waist, or where you want the jeans to sit.
- Hips. Measure around the fullest part of your hips.
- Inseam. Measure a pair that fits from the crotch seam to the hem.
Read the chart
- Match your waist and hip to the chart, then pick the size that fits the larger of the two.
- Check whether the chart is women's or juniors' sizing.
- Look for length options: short, regular and long.
