How to Choose the Right Length Pants?

Of course, there is the material, the color, the confection, a cut adapted to the silhouette. But men (like women) do not always pay enough attention to the length of their pants. This is an essential detail. Here are some tips for choosing the right length.

Neither too long nor too short

Too long pants made of unsightly wrinkles on the shoe and pick up any dust. This is neglected and can ruin a beautiful costume.

Conversely, when it is too short, we see the sock even when standing. It's even worse (except for fishing, maybe). Pants should have the right length. That's what makes all the difference and gives a slender and neat look.

Non-brittle pants, good but not top

Non-brittle pants will brush the shoe. There is no crease in the ankle and can stop a centimeter above the wholesale shoes. It fits all styles but must be forgotten for suit pants. The bottom can be narrower for a particular look.

The slightly brittle pants, the ideal length

This "classic" length makes it possible to avoid all errors. The bottom of the pants marks a slight crease on the shoes. Just a crease! No more and not too pronounced. Have all your pants adjusted to this length to be sure of you?

Traditional costume, jeans, chino ... If you need to change your look, it is always possible to make a small hem by hand while you can never lengthen your pants.

A very brittle length: the beginner's mistake

This must be avoided at all costs. We forget definitively the pants that fold on the shoe to form an unsightly pile. Whatever the style of your pants, it is imperative to make it shorten.

Differences depending on the type of pants ...

Depending on the type of pants, you can afford some variations. For a chino, the length can be slightly shortened. It can be non-brittle especially on ankle boots. With jeans, anything is possible, since you can, for example, wear it with or without hem ...

However, the pants suit does not allow any digression. It must imperatively be very slightly brittle on the front and stop at the beginning of the heel at the back. Above all, do not under any circumstances let the sock show.

... and also depending on the shoes

It is very important to wear your usual shoes to have the retouches of your pants done. Just be aware that if you wear high-top boots or wholesale shoes, you can opt for a shorter length.
