Wearing men's jeans

8 replies

So I bought some men's jeans (unbeknownst to me) and they fit great! What size should I look for the same as I normally wear?

Basically yes. What waist size do you normally get. If you've got quite curvy hips then sometimes you need to go up a size as mens jeans obviously don't account for curvy hips

Well I bought "athletic fit" jeans which apparently are for wider thighs.

What size are the ones you bought that fit you? Surely that's what you want?

28 (it's Abercrombie) I'm normally a 25/26 at gap. But I'd like to know if it would be the same across all brands.

I don't think you could ever say for definite if you're looking at different brands and styles

Try them on.

They are better because they have decent pockets compared to women's, but the cut isn't quite right IMO. Mine were from Primark and the quality was fine.
They were 28" waist and I'm normally an 8. (or 2 in Gap)

Yes of course! But just realised 28 is the smallest size for men's so maybe a moot point in the end

Speaking of Primark, men's joggers and t-shirts seem better than the women's.

Men's jeans start at 26" but it depends on the brand.
