Sizing Information
I measured a selection of these pants and found the waist size of the pants to measure out consistently at 2” larger than the stated size. Most men’s jeans will be sized this way these days…. it’s called vanity sizing. We recommend you measure your waist or the waistband of your favorite jeans to see what size pants you need.
Inseam on the regular size pants is about 33” and inseam on the tall size pants is about 35”.
Here is a chart I put together to show you how each pant size measures out so you can select the size based upon what you come up with when you measure yourself.
| Pant Size | Max Waist Size | Inseam Regular | Inseam Tall |
|---|---|---|---|
| 32 | 34 | 33 | 35 |
| 34 | 36 | 33 | 35 |
| 36 | 38 | 33 | 35 |
| 38 | 40 | 33 | 35 |
| 40 | 42 | 33 | - |
