Stand with your hands on your hips and bend over to one side to identify your waist. The area where your body folds is your waist.

Hold the end of the measuring tape in front of your body and wrap it around your waist. Look at the number where the end of the tape intersects with the piece that is wrapping around your body. Write your waist measurement on a piece of paper.

Place the end of the tape just above the bump on the inside of your ankle. Pull the measuring tape up toward your crotch. Stop at the inside bend of your thigh to obtain your inseam length.

Turn the waist of the jeans outward to examine the label. Look for jeans that match the size measurements you noted. For example, if your waist and leg measurements are both 30 inches, look for a label that reads "30W 30L."

Tips & Warnings
Jeans for women may be in sizes instead of measurements — the smaller the size, the tinier the waist. For example, a Size 6 is for a 24-inch waist. The jeans go up one size for every inch of waist. The leg measurements may be short, regular or long. For example, a short leg is about 30 inches, regular is 32 inches and above 32 inches is long.
Jeans sizes can vary regardless what the label states. Make the closest choice based on the measurements and try the jeans on before purchasing them. Take your body measurements without clothing. Ask a friend to do the measuring for you, if possible.
