How to: Find Your Fit
Women's magazines talk a lot about "dressing for your body type," but there's a reason for that—it works. And it works for guys as well. Knowing your build and being honest about your shape is crucial to finding clothes that fit well. Don't get wrapped up in the number on the tag—as any well adjusted woman will tell you, your self worth is not connected to the size on the tag. Just try on a few pairs until you pull on the one that suits your taste. Because whether you prefer your jeans a little loose or nice and tight, the right style or fit depends on what you're working with underneath.
Jeans in a range of colors—from light grays to dark, inky blues—trimmer men can pull off most shades. Fits to keep an eye out for are straight leg with a low-rise, along with skinny and slim fits.
Relaxed or Loose fits. While the jeans may feel "comfortable and roomy," it gives you the look of a kid who doesn't properly know how to read labels.
Straight leg styles best show off your proportions. A lower rise will help lengthen out the look of your legs and torso. For guys with a smaller waist, look for "athletic fits" that will keep the seat from sagging.
Tapered jeans, longer rises and cuffing your denim—all make you look slightly shorter, so beware.
Dark washes (which have a slight slimming effect) in straight fits. Some relaxed fits offer a bit more room in the seat or thighs.
Skinny, boot cut or some slimmer straight leg fits. And more importantly, don't try to hide any excess weight by wearing oversized, baggy jeans—they only make you look heavier and sloppy.
