What jeans fit my body type male

The guidelines above apply to all men, regardless if you’re 5’6” and 230lbs or 6’ with a 28” waist.

In order to get that kind of fit though, you have to make sure you’re buying the right cut for your body type.

You don’t know how many guys I’ve worked with who complain that jeans never fit when they go shopping, and I find out that they’re shopping in the skinny fit section when they look like they should be over at the big and tall.

Jeans fit men

And while everything seems to be “skinny fit” these days, there’s actually a method to the madness. Here’s how to decode your local denim section:

Skinny fit: For guys with skinny thighs and skinny calves.

True skinny fit jeans are meant for guys who basically have pencils for legs, they’re roughly the same straight, slim shape from their thighs to their calves.

Best for: Guys who have really skinny legs all the way through.

Tapered fit: For guys with a bit of thigh and butt muscle, but calves smaller than their thighs, hence the tapering of the cut.

Best for: Average to Fit guys that don’t have big thighs
