Fold your jeans so that each leg is on top of the other.

How to measure men for jeans. Follow the same procedure as explained above, flattening the jeans on a hard, flat surface and smoothening the pants out. Use the tape to measure around the base of your neck, where it meets your shoulders. Place the top of the tape measure on your inner thigh, stay the closest to the crotch as possible.

To measure a man’s shoulders, stand behind him and place the end of the tape at the tip of his shoulder, where the horizontal slope of the shoulder joins the vertical slope of the arm. Pull the front waistband up, aligning the top edge with the back waistband. Your waist measurement will be the entire circumference of the area where your jeans will rest.

To keep it as a reference point around your waist (where you want your jeans to sit) and note the measured size. Make sure you put ribbon or. If you have an existing pair of jeans lay them flat and measure them.

To measure the length of the jeans, hold the end of the tape at the crotch, or cut, then run along. Lay your jeans down flat on a flat surface. Stand up straight with your legs slightly open.

For example, if measuring across the waistband you come up with 17”, your width is 17 x 2 = 34”. Measure the waistband with a measuring tape from one end across to the other. This measurement becomes crucial if you have fuller thighs.

Measure the waistband of the pair of jeans to see if it’s a fit. Put a finger between your neck and the tape measure for a more loose fit collar. Measure the inside of your leg from your crotch to the floor wearing the shoes you will wear with the jeans.
