Best Jeans for Every Male Body Shape

Find your body shape with the body shape calculator for men, then jump to the guide for your shape below.

• Jeans for trapezoid

  With a balanced lower half, most cuts work. The goal is a clean line that matches the taper above.

  Try: Slim-straight or straight jeans that follow the leg without squeezing the thighs.

• Jeans for inverted triangle

  Add visual weight below the waist with straight or relaxed jeans, not skinny cuts.

  Try: Straight or relaxed-straight jeans with a little room in the thigh.

• Jeans for rectangle

  A rectangle shape suits most jeans, so choose a cut for the look you want rather than to fix a proportion.

  Try: Slim, straight or tapered jeans in a mid-wash for a clean line.

• Jeans for oval

  The best jeans sit comfortably on the waist and have a straight, clean leg so the lower half balances the middle.

  Try: Straight or slim-straight jeans with a straight, even leg.

• Jeans for triangle

  Keep the lower half clean and dark, with enough room in the thigh not to pull.

  Try: Straight or bootcut jeans that fit the hips and thighs without squeezing.
