pro tips

1. Measure on a pair of 100% cotton jeans, of which you like the fit — and hope to find a similar fit.

2. This method doesn’t work based on body measurements. If you don’t have any 100% cotton jeans to measure on, the only answer is to find some. (more on this in my FAQs)

3. Remember, length can be adjusted, so numbers 1-4 are the most important!

4. I will show waist, rise and inseam (1,2 & 3) on a white slip on the feature picture of each listing.

5. PLEASE be sure to look through the photographs in the listing for measurements 4-5. These measurements will ensure that they will fit in your bum/hips/thighs. Note: This is where many go wrong, ignoring the hips/thigh measurements in my listings & solely going off the waist measurement. Some styles (505 & 517 & 646 & 684) run more narrow in the hips and thighs.

6. Measurement 4 will be the measurement that ensures you can get them over your hips, but also if they’ll be too baggy in the bum. More on that here.

7. When you are ready to shop, you’ll double the flat lay waist measurement to know which size section to look in.
   (examples: measurement #1 is a 14” waist, then that would fall under section 28-29 - and I’d call that an “actual 28”. 14.5” would be an “actual 29”.)

8. I always round down, so 14.25” would be what I call an “actual 28”.

9. Vintage sizing is inconsistently inconsistent. You much remove any attachment to the tag size — of the vintage jeans and of the modern jeans you wear. More on that here.

10. Why is it so important to follow carefully? Because all sales are final and I want you to be happy.
