Fun fact: In Scottish slang, wearing your trousers of any kind any higher than no break is known offensively as…….. “ your cat’s died” or “Your cats deed”. Good handy upload for those less aware. 👌🏼
Used to wear mostly only Levi's until about 13 years ago. I proudly state that I've been a Wrangler ® fan ever since and overwhelmingly own more Wrangler ® jeans of many varieties than I do any other brand.
Another thing to look for when buying jeans is where the back pockets lay. The higher up they are the more flattering your backside looks. if they are too far down your butt looks flatter. Another good video Thomas.
@@mrtv777 I have Wrangler jeans that have pockets that are higher up and also a pair of Silver brand jeans that have personally worked for me. I would definitely avoid Rock Revival jeans.
These tips sound similar to how to identify perfect jeans for women, I've always assumed saggy pockets was a look men wanted in jeans... Turns out that it was just bad fit too.
Unfortunately there are no small back pockets or higher up available for sale anymore (like it used to be until 2008). The fashion industry really sucks for men these days.
Absolutely amazing channel and great video. A year ago I walked away from sugar, fast food, soda and bad carbs and quietly lost over 100 pounds. Being in my early 40s, you’re exactly what I needed to find. With the help from your channel, it’s time to start looking as good as I feel.
@@littleinkling4604 I was wondering the same thing. I went carnivore, basically same as the op. And miracles happened with my physique. Lost 15 lbs immediately. It's been 9 months. I'm in great shape!!
@@MadDestructionChaos Excellent! I've lost 17lbs since Christmas through dropping carbs and sugar. Physically I feel great and cognitive function is so much better. Need to shift another 17lbs which will take longer, but my lifestyle changes will make it happen.
@@littleinkling4604 you got this man! It gets easier and you find ways to make satisfying meals without all the extra carbs. Beef, bacon, butter, eggs and cheese, I make miracles with those ingredients. Good luck!! Just what you did dropping the sugar and carbs keep that up and you'll have a summer bod in new time! Lol
@@MadDestructionChaos Yes! Those are all in my fridge, but I also find it important to know what to snack on. When I go the store for snacks, I make sure I head straight to sunflower seeds etc. Okay, nothing amazing in taste, but healthy and deals with the cravings.
I lift and the best kind of fit for jeans I've found is American Eagle's Athletic Fit Air Flex. Standard Athletic Fit and Athletic Skinny. Both styles have that little extra room in the thigh and seat, soft stretch, great taper, and are around $45. I've gotten multiple compliments from friend's wives (mine too) on the fit so I know I chose wisely. I'm 190lbs 5'9" and wear a 34/32 skinny or 32/32 regular Athletic Fit.
I'm on that exact same boat and usually go with Express's Straight Slim (6'2", between 210-220). Especially when they have crazy sales and have the pants go for $20 - 30 a pair. I've tried designer all the way to Levi's but you can't go wrong with value
Great info, I haven't tried those. This past week I've tried on over 30 pairs and did loads of research. I found the best for me (muscular ass and legs, 5'11, 185lbs) are Lee Extreme Motion Athletic Taper (32x32) and Goodfellow Slim Straight (30x32, but ONLY in light blue wash! The other colors use different material blends 😡). They fit identically and are super stretchy. Levi 506 (athletic stretch 32x32) was a close third, would be best for real outdoor work pants. Thicker, less stretchy. Arizona Athletic Taper 32x32 almost made the list.
@@nickisabelle724 I pretty much tried all those and the American Eagle were the way to go. You won't be disappointed. I'm 5'9" 203lbs pretty lean and the 32-34/32 were best for me in the regular and skinny. Still the best jeans I've ever had for being into bodybuilding.
I have come to recently see the benefits of stretch in jeans it’s like having a built in tailor it takes in the baggy areas and stretch’s for the tight areas .
I have a recommendation for a video. Maybe do a breakdown of different style of jeans, depending on your age. When I was in my teens and 20s I would wear designer Jean's. Mostly Buckle and Rock Revival. In my late 30s I usually go with a nice and good fitting pair of classic Levi's. In my opinion age does matter when it comes to the style of jeans you wear. Just a suggestion.
Best video about jeans fitting. Would agree seat is key. I have very bumpy seat and only Levis 569 look good at me. For any other number or other jeans brand I have to size up and look baggy at me. Levis 541 do not fit me well as live huge space in thighs. Now when levis 569 is disappearing from shelves would have go back to wrangler loose fit aka dad jeans.
How about a video on Jean brands. Differences, pros, cons, etc. I struggle to find jeans with all the right proportions. Example...If waist and length fit, thighs or calves are too tight. Some aspect is always off.
For someone like me with not a lot of backside and a little pudge around the midsection the best off the rack brand is Wrangler in my opinion. I am a 36X32. They are a little stiff at first and take a little bit to break in but once you do they fit great.
I'm wearing wranglers right now. I see posts sometimes about where to get normal fitting mens clothing, for men thar don't wear sneakers unless they're actually playing a sport or working out, and western wear catalogs have been my go to.
To add "fit in seat" is rocket science. As I said in other comment I have very bumpy seat. I said Levis 569 fit me well in seat in size w34. But that mean it hug my seat from top to bottom of seat line. For example Levis 550 in w36 fit my sit well to half of it but than go straight down from there and look baggy.
Haven’t worn jeans in years. Kit and Ace are literally the best. Stains wash right out. Comfortable in every climate. Stretch comfort. And the list goes on. Haven’t heard of them. Look em up
I think one of the battles of well-fitting jeans, especially in classic denims, is that we're applying the fit and movement expectations of a wool or cotton smart-casual trouser to a fabric weight and seam construction which was never originally intended to fit that way. It's a case of "style" and "fit" becoming conflated on a garment type that wasn't historically originally designed to fit, fall, or move in the same way as we now want it to.
Just buy Levi's Fitting problems solved. They have a cut for almost every body structure. The look is timeless and classic all at once. Plus, they wear well and look better over time.
Do they have the stretchy elastic ones he mentioned in the vid? I’ve got American eagles with elastic built in and I can never go back. But I don’t like the fade so I’m looking into Levi’s
Where do you find jeans like that. Some of us are in between sizes too big and they look sloppy too small and they cut off your circulation... What to do??
great video. like the idea of tailoring -- esp length. have you tried Revtown denim? I used to wear JCrew 484s only. Then I tried Revtowns -- they actually use their 4-way slight stretch all the way to the waist. I love them... but I think my wife loves them more (her own, and the pairs I wear)...
I think one important issue is never brought up in this kind of video to prevent backlash. It’s about body shape. You have to be lean with good length proportion of torso and legs to look good with jeans. Finding a good fit jeans will be piece of cake. Fitting is also way easier if you have lean body. If you’re like 5’8 and 180lbs no jeans would fit good. Believe me, I know.
Oh, come on now, Bunky. There are no "rules" as to "who" can or cannot wear jeans. COVID did a job on me and I'm fighting to get 20 pounds back off. I'm 74 years old and still love wearing jeans because they're comfy and practical. I'm not using them as a selling point at a bar anymore. I just enjoy the fit and comfort of my 38" Buffalo David Buittons and once in a while I even get attention until I tell the mate that I have to get my Viagra prescription refilled, lol.
If the jeans have stretch, get them a little snug, over time the elastane will give some slack in the stress areas, and make a more custom, perfect fit. You can do this with 100% non stretch cotton, but it will take a loooong time, and it'll be slightly uncomfortable for a while. I would personally just get the non stretch jeans in my size or maybe a smidge bigger, since I like to wash mine to help soften the fabric.
@@bebejoon3664 3-6% is a lot of stretch for a men's pair of jeans. The standard is usually 1-2%. It would take many wears to get the 3-6 to break in if you went with a smaller size, because it has more "stretch memory" and will hold it's shape longer. So, yes, that would work, but I would it might be tight for a bit until the elastane starts to wear down. For me, 1-2% is the right elastane to have a solid break in process.
@@nickkestler4848 Actually it’s 1% elastane and 5% polyester. I have big thighs and after 3 wears it’s loose around the waist, back area and thighs. At first it fit snug and tight but not a uncomfortable tightness. Was thinking since it’s loosened up about an inch or more I should go down a size. What you think? And thanks btw
@@bebejoon3664 Oh yeah then for sure go down a small enough size where it fits snug, but isn't uncomfortable. If you wash and dry on hight heat, you'll get some shrinkage, but it usually goes back to normal after a few wears. The only thing is it'll shorten also, and that's tough to fix, but I don't mind it.
Levi’s 510s and 512s are the only jeans that fit me perfectly, although I have to go down 2 inches in length in 512s. Yes, my hips are wide and I have a big curvy butt so stretchy waistbands are a must for me. Fortunately my legs are so skinny that both jeans are still loose around my ankles.
Thanks for the great tips. 👍🏻 I have been trying to search forever to get thr right siE pants but my husband still ends up showing his Crack! What can help with this?
I recently discovered that Levi's 505 jeans are made lower waist and with only 5 belt loops which causes the butt to sag. I couldn't figure out why my latest Levi 505s sagged in the behind until I did my research. So I compared my one year old Levi 505s to my 4 year old Levi 505's and this is what I discovered first hand: The two belt loops traditionally above the rear pockets were omitted and the waist material is shorter which prohibits pulling them up properly. Further investigation online led to others who had discovered the same thing. I no longer purchase Levi jeans.
They're also incredibly inconsistent with their sizing now. I bought 3 pairs of 505's a month or so ago from a physical store; all of them 34x34. 1 pair was slightly loose, 1 pair fits perfectly, and the 3rd pair doesn't even come close to fastening. Same thing with my 511's.
If you want a great pair of 505’s buy a LVC selvage pair. I’ve had five pairs and my oldest pair are 15 years old and still look great. Remember, you get what you pay for,
I like shorter length because I mostly wear high shoes and boots, such as Converse chuck 70s high or any leather boot that goes up to the ankles or beyond
Do you know short length jeans make the top baggy and droopy? It's true, I get my length longer and I wear my breeches leg over boots which also makes them fit better. You see the leg gets wider as it goes up, which means when you wear them shorter, the leg is naturally going to be droopy. I hope my lesson on Jean fitting helps lol. but true though👌
I've lost weight. I need to find a good pair. I haven't been this size since my early 20s. Great info. Need help since styles have changed since then and I don't want the dad jeans and I don't want to look like I'm trying too hard to look young.
@@RishiSaran I am 30" waist but 501 are so wide at the seat that it looks like they are either made for women or seat part is from 32" or 33" size. It is true I lost about 8 kgs last 2 years (went vegan) but still not a good cut. I do not like taper or slim or non-pure cotton.
I only find high-medium rise jeans (I like the skinny ones) in stores and I have to wear them to the navel anyway, for my shape is quite uncommon and if I wear them as they’re supposed to, it leaves a lot of fabric hanging from my lower back. But no matter how much I tighten the belt, everytime I sit or walk for a while they fall a little (got a bit of love handles that weaken the grip).
In the UK they sell the Super Skinny fit, aka "Spray" because it's so tight that It seems the jeans got sprayed on their legs. No room for imagination...
@Peter Bravestrong I personally find more embarrassing the "from the knees up" half. Despite the body shape, a man in his 40s and over, me included, should avoid any skinny fit clothes, likewise ladies should avoid leggings (at any age, they're so vulgar).
3:25 if your jeans are that long at the ankles, you're wearing them too low. Pull them up properly. No need to roll. A lot of men wear their jeans too low or too big and they look ridiculous. Don't be afraid to show off your ass and bulge in well fitting jeans. I wear my jeans with a belt at the top of my hip bones about 1 inch below the navel.
as a 5 foot 9.5 person whos still growing, i wear 32 inseam length and they fit well, slightly above ground barefoot, and 2-3 inches above ground in shoes. I like the mid to full break the most and even though i wear black low rise slim fit jeans, my legs still look long. I have one pair thats a little too long thats a 34x32, well i measured the inseam and its greater than 32 inches, its actually 33.5 inches and barely reaches ground barefoot, sometimes they might mismeasure the inseam. I say no worries i will grow into them because im growing taller. For people who arent growing anymore if you tailor those 1-2 inches should be good.
Why are inseam length and waist width not the same. Some brands like h&m have 28W/28L but others it's always 28/32 or 28/30 why is it different, is there a reason
1:00 wait. that's exactly what I dislike when it comes to jeans. but most of the jeans I own are like that, because its the style of these jeans, it's modern style whatever it is called. hip hop jeans? ... wasn't there a time, ( one or 2 decades ago or something) when it was modern if the area between the legs was hanging down almost down to the knees ?
What about Levis denim pants? There are more than 10 styles of fit. In my understanding there are more than 10 styles of cut which we can buy in the dept stores.
Video doesn’t take into account that jeans stretches over tine with wear. Perfectly fitted denim on day one does not mean it’ll look that way after a wash and dry cycle. All my denim seem to have stretched out at least a size after wearing them for an extended period of time.

Levi's 501/505 are the best. Durable enough to work in yet good looking enough for casual wear. They fit over boots pretty well too.

I use straight and relaxed fit jeans 👖 were fit nice , plus I workout and sculpture my legs well.l
I think one of the battles of well-fitting jeans, especially in classic denims, is that we're applying the fit and movement expectations of a wool or cotton smart-casual trouser to a fabric weight and seam construction which was never originally intended to fit that way. It's a case of "style" and "fit" becoming conflated on a garment type that wasn't historically originally designed to fit, fall, or move in the same way as we now want it to.

Just buy Levi's
Fitting problems solved. They have a cut for almost every body structure. The look is timeless and classic all at once. Plus, they wear well and look better over time.
I’ve bought 2 pair of 501 and 1 pair of 511 and I love them already
The Levi's are a little more expensive, but so worth it. I'm 65, and still wear 501's with confidence.
I recommend L.L. Bean. They have four main “fits”.
Spot on. They have something for everyone

Where do you find jeans like that.
Some of us are in between sizes
too big and they look sloppy
too small and they cut off your circulation...

It’s about body shape. You have to be lean with good length proportion of torso and legs to look good with jeans. Finding a good fit jeans will be piece of cake. Fitting is also way easier if you have lean body.
If you’re like 5’8 and 180lbs no jeans would fit good. Believe me, I know.

I couldn't figure out why my latest Levi 505s sagged in the behind until I did my research. So I compared my one year old Levi 505s to my 4 year old Levi 505's and this is what I discovered first hand: The two belt loops traditionally above the rear pockets were omitted and the waist material is shorter which prohibits pulling them up properly. Further investigation online led to others who had discovered the same thing. I no longer purchase Levi jeans.
They're also incredibly inconsistent with their sizing now. I bought 3 pairs of 505's a month or so ago from a physical store; all of them 34x34. 1 pair was slightly loose, 1 pair fits perfectly, and the 3rd pair doesn't even come close to fastening. Same thing with my 511's.
If you want a great pair of 505’s buy a LVC selvage pair. I’ve had five pairs and my oldest pair are 15 years old and still look great. Remember, you get what you pay for,
If you are wearing 505, non selvage, then it’s good that you are not wearing Levis at all in the first place 🤣😂🤣
@@RishiSaran I’ve got a few pairs of US made non selvedge 100% cotton pairs from the early 90’s that are still decent jeans.
What brand jeans are featured in the video?
I like shorter length because I mostly wear high shoes and boots, such as Converse chuck 70s high or any leather boot that goes up to the ankles or beyond
Do you know short length jeans make the top baggy and droopy? It's true, I get my length longer and I wear my breeches leg over boots which also makes them fit better. You see the leg gets wider as it goes up, which means when you wear them shorter, the leg is naturally going to be droopy. I hope my lesson on Jean fitting helps lol. but true though👌
Which jeans brand has been used in this video?
Greer video...
great
How about stretch fabric!
What about my package? I’m wearing them how you recommended but find them really snug in the front. Suggestions?
I've lost weight. I need to find a good pair. I haven't been this size since my early 20s. Great info. Need help since styles have changed since then and I don't want the dad jeans and I don't want to look like I'm trying too hard to look young.
Get the 501 non elastane, 100% cotton. Can’t go wrong with this one ever if your waist is 28-32” with fit legs 🦵 to match…
@@RishiSaran I am 30" waist but 501 are so wide at the seat that it looks like they are either made for women or seat part is from 32" or 33" size. It is true I lost about 8 kgs last 2 years (went vegan) but still not a good cut. I do not like taper or slim or non-pure cotton.
Great video, help a lot.
And what about jeans with 10% of poliester and 2 of elastan? Like in some Lee's. Is it ok?
I like Lee's, the straight fit with "extreme motion" are so comfortable.
Interesting 🧐
I only find high-medium rise jeans (I like the skinny ones) in stores and I have to wear them to the navel anyway, for my shape is quite uncommon and if I wear them as they’re supposed to, it leaves a lot of fabric hanging from my lower back. But no matter how much I tighten the belt, everytime I sit or walk for a while they fall a little (got a bit of love handles that weaken the grip).
Nice👍😂
We can wear jeans with dress shoes?
In the UK they sell the Super Skinny fit, aka "Spray" because it's so tight that It seems the jeans got sprayed on their legs. No room for imagination...
@Peter Bravestrong I personally find more embarrassing the "from the knees up" half. Despite the body shape, a man in his 40s and over, me included, should avoid any skinny fit clothes, likewise ladies should avoid leggings (at any age, they're so vulgar).
Skinny jeans on men look feminine, thus not attractive…
@@monicagambino318 bingo 👍👍I’ve never wore skinny jeans don’t intend to
3:25 if your jeans are that long at the ankles, you're wearing them too low. Pull them up properly. No need to roll. A lot of men wear their jeans too low or too big and they look ridiculous. Don't be afraid to show off your ass and bulge in well fitting jeans. I wear my jeans with a belt at the top of my hip bones about 1 inch below the navel.
as a 5 foot 9.5 person whos still growing, i wear 32 inseam length and they fit well, slightly above ground barefoot, and 2-3 inches above ground in shoes.
I like the mid to full break the most and even though i wear black low rise slim fit jeans, my legs still look long.
I have one pair thats a little too long thats a 34x32, well i measured the inseam and its greater than 32 inches, its actually 33.5 inches and barely reaches ground barefoot, sometimes they might mismeasure the inseam. I say no worries i will grow into them because im growing taller. For people who arent growing anymore if you tailor those 1-2 inches should be good.
2:31 those have got to be some high rise jeans. If not, they should have done a side by side comparison.
I wear cowboy boots or wellingtons so I like em stacked
Nice video and I agree with all points raised. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Why are inseam length and waist width not the same. Some brands like h&m have 28W/28L but others it's always 28/32 or 28/30 why is it different, is there a reason
Thank you sir love you from India Hyderabad. My waist is 44 please suggest me Levi's jeans Indian style. I am confuse. Some brand Jean fit 42 also me.
Good education 😂❤
It’s crazy how these skinny jeans in these videos are the new dad jeans lol
1:00 wait. that's exactly what I dislike when it comes to jeans. but most of the jeans I own are like that, because its the style of these jeans, it's modern style whatever it is called. hip hop jeans? ... wasn't there a time, ( one or 2 decades ago or something) when it was modern if the area between the legs was hanging down almost down to the knees ?
Where to buy quality jeans online
What brand are those jeans the guy with the maroon t-shirt is wearing? You guys should list the brand that the models wear so one can purchase them.
What about Levis denim pants? There are more than 10 styles of fit.
In my understanding there are more than 10 styles of cut which we can buy in the dept stores.
Cotton +elastin is best as I use only pepe jeans.
Just wear the jeans you like,dont ever be told how to live your life.
Video doesn’t take into account that jeans stretches over tine with wear. Perfectly fitted denim on day one does not mean it’ll look that way after a wash and dry cycle. All my denim seem to have stretched out at least a size after wearing them for an extended period of time.
I always buy a size up and tailor it.
Niice 😅
