34, 36 or 38 Inch Inseam? How to Choose the Right Jeans Length. 

If you've spent years searching for long inseam jeans for women, you've probably discovered that finding the right length can be surprisingly difficult.

A jean can fit perfectly around your waist and hips but still be several inches too short.

That's why choosing the right inseam is one of the most important parts of buying jeans for tall women.

Our Tall Basic Mid Rise, Straight Leg Jeans – Indigo are available in 34", 36" and 38" inseams, giving you three different long-length options.

But which one should you choose?

What does inseam mean?

The inseam is the measurement from the crotch seam down the inside of the leg to the bottom of the jeans.

For example:

• 34" inseam = 34 inches from crotch to hem
• 36" inseam = 36 inches
• 38" inseam = 38 inches

It's important to remember that your ideal inseam isn't determined by height alone.

Two women who are the same height can have very different leg lengths.

Who should choose a 34 inch inseam?

A 34 inch inseam can be a great starting point for taller women who want a full-length jean but don't need an extremely long leg.

Depending on your proportions and footwear, 34" may provide a clean full-length finish.

Who should choose a 36 inch inseam?

If you're searching specifically for 36 inch inseam jeans, you're likely already aware that standard denim isn't giving you enough length.

A 36" inseam provides an additional two inches compared with a 34" inseam and can be ideal for women with longer legs.

Who should choose a 38 inch inseam?

A 38 inch inseam is designed for women who need significant additional length.

If you've regularly experienced jeans that sit above your ankle when you want them to reach your shoe, a 38" inseam may be worth considering.

How to measure your inseam

The easiest way to find your ideal inseam is to measure a pair of trousers or jeans that already fit you well.

Lay them flat and measure from the crotch seam down the inside leg to the hem.

You can then compare that measurement with the available inseams.

Another option is to measure your body from the crotch to where you'd like your jeans to finish.

Your shoes matter too

Think about what shoes you'll wear with your jeans.

For example:

Trainers: You may prefer the hem to sit neatly around the shoe.

Boots: A longer inseam can work particularly well.

Heels: You may want additional length to create a longer, uninterrupted line.

Why offering three inseams matters

One of the biggest frustrations with tall women's jeans is having very limited choice.

You shouldn't have to choose between jeans that fit your waist and jeans that are long enough.

Offering 34, 36 and 38 inch inseams gives tall women more control over the final fit.
