Our Waverly Jogger Pant<\/p><\/div>\n

Our Ludlow and Waverly jogger pants are designed with a drawstring elastic waistband and elastic cuffs for a sporty, casual look. We think jogger-style pants look best with the elastic cuff sitting at or above the ankle or the top of the shoe, so the following adjustments are intended to help you achieve this look based on your starting measurements.<\/p>\n

Decrease Inseam Length<\/h2>\n

The goal of this adjustment is to ensure the elastic cuff sits at or just above your ankle or the top of your shoe. Depending on where the cuff or hem of your regular casual pant\/trouser inseam hits your foot or ankle, you should make adjustments as follows.<\/p>\n

If your starting pant size has no break: <\/strong>Decrease the inseam length by about .5″-1″.<\/p>\n

If your starting pant size has a small, or half, break: <\/strong>Decrease the inseam length by about 1″-2″.<\/p>\n

If your starting pant size has a significant, or full, break: <\/strong>Decrease the inseam length by about 2″-3″.<\/p>\n

If your starting pant size has negative break, or hits above the ankle: <\/strong>You won’t need adjustments, unless your inseam is particularly short. In this case, measure from the trouser hem to just above the ankle bone and increase the inseam length accordingly.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, <\/strong>you can measure the inseam based on a pair of trousers you already own. Put on the trousers, fold up the hem until the bottom hits the ankle, then pin the fold in place. Take the trousers off, measure the height of the fold, and decrease the inseam length by that amount.<\/p>\n

Decrease Leg Opening Width<\/h2>\n

Joggers look best, and the elastic cuff is most functional, when the leg tapers to a smaller opening at the ankle and the elastic cuff hugs the ankle closely. For most people* a leg opening width of about 7″ will work well; much bigger than this and you’ll have a loose elastic cuff.<\/p>\n

*Alternatively, <\/strong>you can measure the leg opening width of a pair of trousers you already own. Enlist the help of a friend if you can:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. While you remain standing up straight, have a friend pinch the fabric of the trouser hem on either side of the ankle.<\/li>\n
  2. Have them measure the front of the trouser hem to about a .25″ from each side of your ankle.<\/li>\n
  3. Subtract that from your current trouser leg opening width. This new number is your elastic cuff leg opening width.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
