10 Foolproof Pairs of Jeans To Buy If You Have a Long Torso & Short Legs

Regardless of your body shape, size, and height, finding the perfect jeans to fit your body is never an easy task—and no one is exempt from this universally frustrating struggle (yes, even those long-legged supermodels have trouble). Finding jeans for a long torso and short legs, however, is a uniquely unsettling experience, because it seems that the majority of denim designers failed to remember this fairly common body type is, in fact, in existence.

In fact, long torso and long waistline are oftentimes viewed as virtually the same thing, but that’s not exactly the case—you can have a short waist and long rise too, and while it’s often that thought that long torsos belong only to tall people, this type of body proportions actually has nothing to do with height. Unfortunately, these nuances are often neglected in on-trend denim designs, which makes it difficult for those of us to find actually flattering jeans in our size (and, perhaps more importantly, designed with proper proportions) that hit all the other benchmarks in jeans that we’re seeking—and that we freaking deserve (!!!).

In fact, while most of us are familiar with the horizontal body type theory (pear, apple, hourglass, etc.) the vertical body type model, which is based on the ratio and balance of your torso to your legs is grossly under-considered in fashion design—especially in the jeans sector. The good news is that, with some extensive research and hours of scrolling, I’ve found quite a few pairs of jeans that are not only suitable for those of us with long torsos and short legs, but actually flattering AF to boot. Scroll through to check out some of my favorite styles below.
