When you're looking for men's jeans, the size number is not the only thing that matters: the fit makes the difference. Here you can see in plain terms what each term means, how much they differ in centimetres and how to choose your size.
The short answer
- Baggy: wide through the whole leg, they hang loosely.
- Loose fit: relaxed at the waist, narrowing towards the ankle. Not baggy.
- Regular & straight: a classic, straight fit.
- Balloon: a more rounded leg.
- Slim & skinny: a closer fit.
What are baggy jeans
Baggy jeans are wide through the whole leg and hang loosely, without clinging to the body. They are wide on purpose: if they look big to you, don't take a larger size. In size 32, based on our size guide, they have a leg opening of 42 cm and an inside leg of 80 cm.
What are loose fit jeans
Loose fit jeans are relaxed at the waist and thigh, but narrow towards the ankle. Many people expect them to be as wide as baggy jeans: they are not. In the same size 32 they have a leg opening of 34 cm (baggy: 42 cm) and an inside leg of 66 cm, so they end higher at the ankle.
Regular and straight
Regular and straight jeans have a classic, straight fit. If you also want side pockets, take a look at the cargo jeans in the collection.
Balloon jeans
Balloon jeans have a more rounded leg. In the collection you will also find baggy balloon styles with a drawstring or elastic waist, for a more comfortable fit.
Slim and skinny
For a closer fit there are slim and skinny jeans. In size 32 the leg opening is 28 cm. You will find fewer styles in this fit.

How to choose your size
Our jeans come in waist sizes, usually from 29 to 36, while some styles go up to 40 or 42. On each product you enter your height and weight and the size recommendation shows you the size that fits.
What size to get in each fit
The fit changes how wide the jeans look, not your size. In the Size Guide of each product you can see where its fit sits, from “Close fit” to “Very roomy”.
- Baggy, balloon, cargo: take your usual size, not a larger one. They are wide on purpose. Want them less wide? Go one size down.
- Loose fit: take your usual size. It is not baggy: it narrows towards the ankle. If you want a very roomy fit, choose baggy.
- Regular and straight: take your usual size.
- Slim and skinny: if you are between two sizes, take the larger one.
Colour and style
Black jeans can be worn from morning to night and you will find them in baggy, loose fit, straight and skinny fits. If you like a more street look, there are jeans with small rips, ripped knees or frayed hems, mainly in loose fit and baggy fits. For extra comfort, some relaxed, regular and loose fit jeans contain elastane or stretch, which is stated in their title.
