Men's Straight Leg Jeans, Made to Measure

Our Straight is the classic five-pocket: clean through the seat, easy through the thigh, and the same width from knee to hem. We cut it from your waist, seat, thigh and inseam, then you choose the denim, from 13 oz rigid cotton to 14 oz raw Japanese-style selvedge.

Choose your break, then measure for it

BreakHow it looksHow to measure
No breakThe hem just meets the shoe; clean, and ideal for cuffsShoes on, to the top of the shoe
Slight breakOne soft fold at the frontShoes on, a little past the top of the shoe
Full breakThe fabric rests on the shoe and foldsShoes on, almost to the heel; good with boots

Hems, fly and the first-pair rule

A straight leg shows off its hem. Choose regular, raw and frayed, cuffed, or chain-stitch (+$10), add a button fly (+$10), and pick classic gold, tonal or contrast white thread. A monogram inside the waistband is +$10.

New to made-to-measure? Straight is a good first pair: there's no taper to second-guess. Once it fits, every reorder uses the same pattern, in any denim or wash. Long legs are covered too, with inseams up to 40" on our tall men's jeans page.

When not to choose straight

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

How should straight leg jeans fit?

Clean through the seat with no sag, comfortable in the thigh, and a leg that falls straight to a slight break over your shoe. Measure your inseam with your shoes on.

Do raw selvedge jeans shrink?

Raw, unwashed denim can shrink when it's first soaked or washed. Tell us in the notes for your tailor how you plan to wash yours, and we'll confirm the length before cutting.

Can I cuff straight leg jeans?

Yes. Choose the cuffed hem, or add an inch or two to your inseam and turn them up yourself. A chain-stitch hem (+$10) looks especially good turned up.

Are straight jeans good for big thighs?

They give more room than slim. For thigh room with a narrower ankle, try athletic taper jeans; for room everywhere, try relaxed.

What's the difference between slim and straight jeans?

Straight keeps the same width from the knee to the hem; slim narrows below the knee. Straight is the more forgiving of the two, and the easier one to wear with boots.
