Understanding jeans sizes

Jeans sizes are indicated in inches. The first number refers to the waist size, in this case, 31 which comes down to 78.7 cm. The length size is the second number, which in this case is 36. Converted into centimeters this is 91.4 cm. Length size 36 is often for the tall man with an above-average height from 1.95 meters.

Measuring yourself

You can do this with a measuring tape. Use it to measure the circumference of your hips, waist, and thighs. It's important not to forget the length of your inside legs. Has this all been done? Then consult the size chart for the right size. The circumference of your thigh is especially important when buying skinny-fit jeans or slim-fit jeans.

What are width sizes

You can recognize the width size from the first number of the size combination. With a pair of jeans, that's therefore 31/36. The width size is based on a waist size.

What are length sizes

You can easily measure this! Use a tape measure and measure from your crotch to the place where you want the trouser leg to sit. Consult a size chart to eventually determine your pant length.
