Rise Descriptions

Regular Rise: Regular rise is the most common rise and will usually fit average size men. If you are used to buying your pants and trousers off the rack, and they fit well, we recommend our regular rise. For a 34” waist our “regular rise” measurement will generally be around 11 1/2”. Regular rise is offered in every waist size.

Short Rise: Short rise is best for shorter than average men. The shorter rise measurement cleans up extra fabric in the crotch and seat areas of the pant that would be visible if wearing a longer rise. For a 34” waist our “short rise” measurement will generally be around 10 3/4”. Short rise is offered in select trousers and pants beginning at a 30” waist up to a 44” waist, even waist sizes only.

Long Rise: Long rise is best for taller than average men or men who have a longer torso and a shorter inseam.  For a 34” waist our “long rise” measurement will generally be around 12 1/4”. Long rise is offered in select trousers and pants beginning at a 36” waist up to 48” waist, even waist sizes only. Long rise is also available in select big & tall trousers and pants.

Please note, rise varies between models and sizes. For a more accurate rise measurement, please email us with your waist size and the style number of the trouser you are interested in.
