Size Guide
We highly recommend checking your measurements before placing an order, especially for vintage denim. Our jeans are measured in inches, and you should use a soft measuring tape for best accuracy.
Key Measurements
- W (Waist)
- L (Leg/Inseam)
- H (Hips)
HOW TO MEASURE
WAIST
Unlike modern high-waisted fits, vintage Levi’s typically sit mid-to-low rise.
To find your waist size:
- Measure 1–2 inches below your belly button, around the area where you'd like the jeans to sit.
- If you're going for a low-rise fit, measure slightly lower on your hips.
- Don’t use your natural waist (the narrowest point) — it won’t give an accurate denim fit.
HIPS
Measure around the fullest part of your bum/hips.
This ensures the jeans fit comfortably around your curves and prevents tightness or gaping at the back.
LEG / INSEAM
Measure from the inside of your leg, from crotch to ankle.
If you prefer your jeans stacked or long enough to sit over heels or trainers, add 1–2 inches to your inseam.
Fit Tips
- Vintage denim has less stretch, so measuring correctly is essential.
- All of our jeans are reworked or sourced in authentic vintage fits — we match each pair to your measurements as closely as possible.
- If you're between sizes, we recommend going up for comfort.

Style tip: If you plan to wear your jeans with heels, measure your inseam while wearing them or add 1–2 inches to your preferred length for a stacked or floor-grazing look.
