| 6 / 28 | 28.5 | 38.25 |

How Gap measures
Gap’s US chart measures straight down the inside leg from crotch to floor. Measure the natural waist separately, and measure hips at their fullest with heels together. Its tips distinguish a longer Long option from an extra-long, proportioned Tall fit.

Before you order
- Check both the fit tab (Regular, Tall or Petite) and any separate length selector.
- A 35.5-inch general chart does not make every Tall jean 35.5 inches.
- Confirm your wash and size. A measurement list does not establish stock in each combination.
