Jeans for Tall Girls: Top picks for 35″ 36″ 37″ and 38″ inseam denim

Long legs may look amazing but being tall comes with it’s own set of fashion problems. Namely finding pants and jeans with an inseam long enough so that the cuff goes all the way down to the shoe. After all you don’t want every pair of pants and jeans you own to be capri length.

A tall 6″1 friend of mine had been hunting for jeans for months before she decided it was easier to task me with the challenge of finding fashionable denim that had leg lengths long enough for her long legs. Who doesn’t love a a fashion challenge? So I I accepted the challenge and started my search – online of course – for jeans for tall women.

First we had to confirm the length we needed, so out came a tape measure out and measured the inseam of her favourite pair of trousers – the inseam should be measured from the crotch to the hem. This is ideal because you will know for sure if you need a 35″, 36″, 37″ or 38″ inseam.

Most denim brands offer a standard 34″ inseam which is great if you’re about 5″10 or shorter, but for the taller girls you’re looking at a required inseam of 36″, 37″ or even 38″. That extra inch can make all the difference when it comes to wearing heels or having an extra few centimetres to work with.
