How to Measure Your Inseam for the Perfect Jean Fit
Jeans shopping is easier when you know your inseam! Whether you love skinnies, straight leg, bootcut, or flare jeans, getting the inseam right means a better fit with no awkward bunching or dragging. At Lavender Hills Beauty, we carry flattering fits from Judy Blue, Vervet, Lovervet, and Risen Jeans, making it simple to find your perfect pair.
What is an Inseam?
Your inseam is the measurement from the crotch seam down to the bottom hem of your jeans. It’s how you get that just-right length for your height and shoe style.
How to Measure Your Inseam at Home:
-
Grab a pair of jeans that fit you perfectly in length.
-
Lay them flat and smooth out any wrinkles.
-
Measure from the crotch seam straight down to the bottom of the leg opening.
-
That number is your inseam in inches!
Short or Petite? Here’s a Trick!
If you’re shorter or have petite proportions, finding the perfect inseam can be tough—but there’s an easy hack! Many of our jeans come with a raw hem, or you can make your own.
-
Tip: Choose a raw hem jean or take regular jeans and cut off the extra length to your desired inseam.
-
After you cut them, wash and dry the jeans—the edge will naturally fray and give you that cute raw hem look.
-
It’s an easy way to customize the length without needing a tailor!
