Copy your favourite thrift-store pair
Found the perfect vintage pair that gaps at the back or pinches at the hip? Lay it flat, measure it with our measuring guide, and order with "copy my best-fitting jeans". Then use the notes for your tailor for what's wrong, for example "take 1 inch out of the waist, keep the hip". We check your numbers before cutting and email you if anything looks unusual.
You keep the shape you fell for in the shop, and lose the gap that made you hesitate at the till. Once it's right, reorders in another wash use the same pattern.
When not to choose mom
You dislike a tapered ankle, or your calves are full.
Try Straight instead
You want a fuller, curved leg.
Try Barrel instead
You want a close, stretchy fit all the way down.
Try Skinny instead
We check your numbers before we cut
Copy your best-fitting jeans laid flat (easiest) or measure yourself with a soft tape. Height and weight are optional, as a cross-check.
Within 1 working day a pattern maker compares every measurement with the others and with your height and weight, and emails you before cutting if anything looks unusual.

Questions and answers
What makes a jean a mom jean?
A high waist, a relaxed hip and thigh, and a leg that tapers to the ankle. Traditionally it's made in rigid cotton denim in a light or mid wash.
What's the difference between mom and boyfriend jeans?
Mom jeans sit high and taper; boyfriend jeans usually sit lower and hang looser and straighter, often rolled at the hem. For a looser look, choose Roomy as your fit preference.
Which wash looks most like real vintage?
Light wash or Bleached (+$5) in Classic Rigid, with light whiskering and fading (+$10) if you want them to look already loved. Ripped knees are available too (+$15).
Do mom jeans work on curvy hips?
Very well, because the relaxed hip already gives room and we cut the waist separately. See curvy jeans with no waist gap.
Can I get plus size mom jeans?
Yes, in waists up to 70" at the same price. Our plus size jeans page explains our approach.
Will petite mom jeans look right?
Yes: the inseam is cut to your ankle bone and you can choose the rise. See petite jeans.
