More jeans mistakes to avoid — Part 2. Shopping for jeans is tricky, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. Here are a few more tips to help you find your perfect pair! 4. Check the inseam measurement: make sure the jeans aren’t too short by verifying the inseam measurement is at least as long as yours. 5. Fabrication: choose 100% cotton if you like the denim to feel stiff and rigid. For slight stretch and flexibility, make sure it has at least 1% elastane. 6. Over order: there is so much variation between brands (and even within the same brand) that the only reliable way to shop for jeans is to order multiple sizes and styles, try everything on and return what doesn’t work. ⚠️ Same brand + same style ≠ same jeans. Jeans from the same brand, with the same style name often have different fabric compositions depending on the wash. In other words - you can order the exact same pair of jeans (brand + style) in another color expecting it to fit the same - and it won’t. 👀 Tell me your jean struggles, I’m listening and ready to help!
