Measuring Your Inseam

defiled · 29-09-2007

WHAT IS YOUR HEIGHT/INSEAM?

how is inseam correctly measured? (ie: crotch to ankle, crotch-under ankle, crotch-floor?)

does inseam determine how long your legs are?

Couture_Tribe · 30-09-2007

The last question is yes, but I am unsure about from crotch to ankle or floor.

baRose · 01-10-2007

I heard it was from your crouch to the bottom of your ankle. At least that always worked for me.

I'm 5'6" with a 32" inseam.

Trista · 02-10-2007

I'm barely 5'6, with a 28" inseam.

burning_autumn · 03-10-2007

I don't know what it is in ' but I'm 161 cm tall.

I always measure crotch to bottom of my inner ankle. I am 5'10 and have a 30 inseam, but sometimes I have to buy 31s because sometimes they shrink in the wash a little bit.

crepebacksatin · 04-10-2007

i'm 5'2 and 3/4" (don't forget the 3/4", very important!

)

my inseam is 28".

Moremi · 05-10-2007

I am 5'11 and 36 inseam
Its hard to find pants/jeans that fit.. which is why I fell in love with Rock and Republic - this is the only jeans that fit.

kokopuff · 07-10-2007

5'1", 27.5" inseam for flats, about 30" inseam for heels

Lea · 08-10-2007

5'7", 32 inch inseam

RubyJewelStone · 09-10-2007

5'1.5" with a 27-29 in. inseam

mcflyandgemmafan · 09-10-2007

5'10" 35" or 36" inseam

nikita · 09-10-2007

so, is it decided that the correct way to measure is crotch to bottom of inner ankle? i dont have any pants other than jeans, so the only way i know my inseam is by which jeans i buy. im 5'8" with a 34" inseam.

defiled · 09-10-2007

i measured almost to floor, otherwise jeans are too short

5'7... 32" (without heels)

writergal28 · 22-10-2007

I'm 5'2" and wear can get away with 31" if I wear heels. I can wear 29 1/2-30 with flats.
