How Jeans Should Properly Fit Skinny/Slim Guys | Ashley Weston
About this video
Weston teaches men how to find the best-fitting jeans for their body type by explaining four key fit characteristics: rise, color, cut, and break. She argues that every brand sizes differently, so men must learn to evaluate these specific measurements and fit details to ensure proper jean fit regardless of their body type.
Key takeaways
- Weston recommends evaluating four specific fit characteristics when shopping for jeans: rise (low, mid, or high), color/wash, cut (skinny to loose), and break (how much material bunches at the ankle)
- Weston argues that men should pinch 1-2 inches of fabric on either side of the thigh, calf, and ankle to ensure proper fit across different brands, since sizing varies significantly
- Weston suggests that slim fit is generally the best cut for most men to avoid extremes that make them look too thin, and a slight break is ideal for most body types unless you’re shorter, in which case a no-break look elongates the legs
