How We Measure
Pants and Shorts
Waist:
With the major buttoned up (i.e. the top button) open the jeans and lay them flat, like shown. Measure from the front where the major button closes to the back belt loop. Double this measurement to find the waist measurement.
The way we measure the waist is different from the 'Side to Side' technique. If you are used to the 'side to side' technique you can roughly roughly downsize by 1 inch.
For example, 'side to side' measurement for The Flat Head 3002 waist is 28inch and using our method measures at 29.25inch.
Front Rise:
With the jeans lying flat measure from the crotch bar tack to the top of the waistband.
Back Rise:
Spread out the crotch so the bar tack is visible, then measure from the crotch to the top of the waistband.
Thigh:
One inch down from the crotch, measure flat across to the other side.
Inseam:
Flatten the leg and measure along the inseam from the crotch to the leg hem.
Leg Openning:
