How to Buy the Perfect Pair of Women's Jeans

Womens Fit Guide Sizing Info

Not all brand sizes are identical. Nor the fitting will be equally comfortable compare to your favorite pair of denim. It can take countless hours trying on different brand that will work for you.

It’s not enough to know the two basic measurement – waist and inseam. You’ll also need to know the difference between styles and cuts. Understanding the type of denim and how much stretch you prefer. Deciding between aesthetic and comfort.

Start with the basics:

Commercially sold jeans have tags that reads 36” X 32”. This identifies the waistband (36”) and the inseam (32”). A third component to consider is the type of rise of the jeans. The pant rise determines where your pants sit on your body, which in turn creates your perceived waistline. Knowing your rise can insure a comfortable fit and how it impact on the rest of your look.

Key Measurement Areas:

Waist: Is the circumference, in inches, of the waistband of the pants.

Inseam: Starts in the crotch area, where the four seam

Rise: It’s the measurement from the center of the crotch, up to the center of the waistband where the button usually are located. 

Type of Rise:

Low Rise Jeans: Generally sit at or below your hips, typically 3-5 inches below the waist. These styles are flattering to physically fit people. Perfect for women with shorter bodies who wants to show a flat stomach or toned abs.

Mid Rise Jeans: Typically seen as the most neutral and potentially comfortable rise of jean. This is the most flattering and looks good on most people.  It is the most common rise worn by men and women.

High Rise Jeans: Sits close to the belly button. It is best fit for those with longer bodies and can accentuate naturally long legs. High-rise are the least worn, creating a boxy shape on the wearer, flattening the rear and cutting the waistline in half.
