How to Take Measurements For Your Jeans
Finding the perfect pair of jeans starts with accurate measurements. Following a simple step-by-step guide,
you can ensure that the jeans you choose fit you comfortably and flatter your body shape. Here's how to
measure for the right fit:
Measure the Waist
Keep the measuring tape loose and wrap it around your natural waistline to determine your waist measurement.
This is typically located above your hips and below your navel. Make sure the tape is parallel to the floor
for accurate results. Note down the measurement, which will help you find the right size.
Measure the Rise
The rise of the jeans refers to the distance from the crotch seam to the top of the waistband. To measure the
height, place the jeans flat on a table and locate the crotch seam, which is the spot where the inseams
meet. From this spot, measure vertically to the top of the waistband.
This measurement is crucial for determining whether you prefer a low-rise, mid-rise, or high-rise fit.
Measure the Inseam To Figure Out The Length
The inseam measurement determines the length of the jeans from the crotch to the bottom of the hem. To
measure the inseam accurately, lay the jeans flat with the front rise facing up. Locate the crotch seam and
measure along the inner leg seam to the bottom of the hem.
This measurement is essential for ensuring the jeans are the correct length for your legs.
Measure the Leg Opening
The leg opening refers to the width of the hemline. Lay the jeans flat on a surface to measure the leg
opening. For any wrinkles, it is advisable to take multiple measurements and compare the results. Measure
the width of the hem from end to end, ensuring the tape measure runs parallel to the floor.
This measurement can help you determine whether you prefer a slim fit or a wider leg opening.
