Men's Jeans Sizes to Women's Jeans Sizes Conversion
More and more guys are buying women's jeans. Some guys buy them for the fit and some for the choice of styles.
Whatever the reason, I couldn't find anyplace that offered any information on what sizes these guys should be buying.
Men's jeans are sized much more simply than women's jeans. Men's jeans sizes are waist measurement x inseam measurement. I wish that women's jeans sizes were so easy.
Not only do the sizes run differently from one pair of jeans to the other. They also run differently between each brand's style and of course, each brands sizing is different.
On top of that there are three different types of women's jeans sizes, misses, juniors and a whole other scale that many designer jeans use.
Some women's jeans come in specific lengths, some offer short, medium or long lengths, but most women's jeans come in one length and that's it.
Another factor when trying to find your size in women's jeans is that most women's jeans are shaped wider in the hips and narrower at the waist than men's jeans, and are snugger in the crotch area. That could be your perfect fit, but if not, keep it in mind when choosing sizes.
The chart below is a general guideline on what men's jeans size might be equivalent to in women's jeans sizes. For the reasons stated above, there is no way to say that any particular men's jeans size will absolutely be equivalent to any particular women's jeans size, but this will give you a place to start.
Jeans Size Charts is a great place to find specific sizing information for your favorite jeans brands.
