How To Find The Perfect Fitting Jeans

Buying a new pair of jeans can be challenging. There are so many styles, fits, and brands with each one fitting just a bit differently. Some run small through the hips but a tad long while others can be larger through the waist but shorter in length. With all of these variables, it is easy to buy a pair of jeans that just isn’t right for you. It is especially hard to buy a pair that is the right size if you are shopping online. The best way to find that perfect fit is to try the jeans on in the store. However, even in the store, it is easy to choose jeans that aren’t quite the perfect fit for you. We are here to help you make sure you purchase jeans that fit your body and your style perfectly.

Size

The first thing that you need to know when buying a pair of jeans is what size you are. Take a look at the jeans in your closet that fit you best and see what size they have listed. This should give you a ballpark range of your size. But since all jeans fit differently, you are going to need to do some more investigating. The next stop should be the store. Try on jeans of different sizes and see which one feels and looks the best. They should be somewhat snug around the waist, with enough room to fit a few fingers between yourself and the jeans at the waist. They should be snug but not so tight that they cause discomfort. But they also shouldn’t be loose enough that you have to worry about them sliding down. Lengthwise, they should come about three quarters of an inch above the bottom of your shoes. With straight fit jeans, they should come to just below your anklebone. Keep in mind that every style and brand will fit differently so do not just assume you are the same size for everything. The best advice is to try things on!

Style

The style of jeans is just as important as the size. Straight fit jeans will obviously be tighter than baggy or loose fit jeans. Your goal should be to maximize both stylishness and comfort. With so many options – skinny, boot cut, low-rise, straight fit, loose fit – you can be sure that there will be a pair to fulfill these goals. Be careful in your selections and make sure not to sacrifice style for comfort or comfort for style.

With this in mind, you should be well on your way to finding that perfect fitting pair of jeans. Good luck and happy shopping!
