FAQ

The size charts for NYDJ jeans depend on whether you are shopping for regular, petite or plus size clothing. Each jean on our site has a product detail page with a “Size Guide” link you can click to see sizing information. 

Lift Tuck® Technology is a hidden feature unique to NYDJ jeans that flattens in the front and lifts in the back. It uses a proprietary slimming panel with a patented criss-cross design to shape and support curves for a smoother, more flattering fit.

With petite, regular and long cuts, the length of the jeans varies, but the waist and hip measurements are usually the same per size. Petite jeans also have shorter rises than regular and long jeans.

If you are between two measurements, it is recommended to select the smaller size.

Regular sizes typically range from 0 to 18, while plus sizes range from 14W to 28W.

Slim fit jeans are fitted and a bit tapered from knee to hem, while straight fit jeans are straight from knee to hem.

Detailed information on how to measure yourself for NYDJ jeans can be found on the sizing page of the NYDJ website: https://nydj.com/pages/size-chart

High-rise jeans are designed to sit at the natural waist and usually cover the belly button, while mid-rise jeans are designed to sit just below the belly button.

Yes, NYDJ provides options for extra long inseams on some of their jeans styles.

Most NYDJ jeans are made of stretchy material designed to fit comfortably and move with you.

The ideal jeans style for any body shape depends on personal preference and individual body type. Recognizing the shape of your body can help you find the right type of jeans that will flatter your figure.

To measure your waist for jeans, wrap a flexible measuring tape around the narrowest part of your waist—usually just above the belly button. Keep the tape snug but not tight, and make sure it stays level all the way around. This measurement (in inches) will help you find the most accurate jeans size.

To measure your hips, stand with your feet together and wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your hips and seat—usually about 7 to 9 inches below your natural waistline. Keep the tape straight and level for the most accurate measurement.

Order your NYDJ jeans one size smaller than you would typically wear in other denim brands. 

The inseam is the length from the crotch seam down the leg to the bottom of the leg opening. It determines how long your jeans will be. To measure it, lay a pair of jeans flat and measure from the crotch seam to the hem along the inside leg. You can also use your height to estimate your ideal inseam.

Our plus size jeans are available in sizes 14W to 28W and are designed to fit and flatter women who wear denim in that size range. They're made with the same inseam lengths as our jeans in regular sizes with adjustments that consider the overall body proportions of women who wear plus sizes.

Our petite jeans are designed for women 5'4" and under to ensure a flattering and comfortable fit for smaller frames. They're made in shorter lengths with adjustments that consider the overall body proportions of women who wear petite sizes.

For NYDJ jeans, sizing generally corresponds to waist measurements as follows:

  • 25-inch waist: Size 00
  • 26-inch waist: Size 0
  • 27-inch waist: Size 2
  • 28-inch waist: Size 4
  • 29-inch waist: Size 6
  • 30-inch waist: Size 8
  • 31-inch waist: Size 10
  • 32-inch waist: Size 12
  • 33-inch waist: Size 14
  • 34-inch waist: Size 16
  • 35-inch waist: Size 18

If you're between sizes, consider sizing down, as NYDJ jeans are made with stretch and a smoothing fit to enhance your shape.
