Q: What is the actual number of inches for the inseam? It just says "high rise," but no inches provided.

submitted by AK - 1 year ago

  • A: Check in specifications. Long was 34

    submitted byJanet - 1 year ago

  • A: "Rise" has nothing to do with inseam length. Rise is the distance between the crotch and the waist. The inseam is the length of the leg.

    submitted byTrixiebelle - 9 months ago

  • A: Inseam measurement for short

    submitted byTwiggy - 1 year ago

  • A: Hello AK - Thank you for your interest in this product! The inseam is 32 Inches. I hope this helps! - Monica.

Q: I’m normally a 2 or 4 and had to buy a 6 and 8. In trying to decide which size to keep (the 6 or 8). Do these shrink after washed or stretch out after wearing? So confused on sizing for these jeans but I do really like them.

submitted by Diana - 7 months ago

  • A: I sized up 2 sizes. They did shrink ever so slightly but I just wash with my normal laundry, no extra care.

    submitted byAnonymously Sarah - 6 months ago

  • A: Hello - Thanks for asking! The jeans are made of 80% Cotton, 12% Polyester, 6% Elasterell-P, and 2% Elastane, so you can wash them in cold water using a gentle cycle to reduce shrinkage. Have a great day! - Archita

Q: What height should I switch to a tall instead of regular for these jeans length?

submitted by Kk - 9 months ago

  • A: Hello Kk - Thank you for your interest on - Women's High-Rise Wide Leg Jeans. The Regular is standard inseam (about ~32″) and is good for most people of average height, the short is a few inches shorter (~30″) better if you’re under ≈5′4″ so they don’t bunch at the bottom. Long is a couple inches longer (~34″) better if you’re ≈5′8″ or taller so they reach your shoes nicely. Please choose the size accordingly. Hope this information helps. Happy shopping! - Rose

    Super chic, BUT size up and prepare for tailoring

    Sizing for jeans at Target is bonkers. I am a 10 in most, but in these I needed a 14 or they were constricting my waist like crazy. I am also 5'7" and even the 12R would have needed to be brought up 2" or more. But at $28, a $20 hem job still keeps these under $50 all in.

    Great fit and true to size!

    absolutely love the quality, fits just right on my hips and hides my tummy perfectly! Im 5'4, 150lb I ordered size 8 in regular. They are a tad bit long on me but nothing a good hem can't fix!

    Great but size up

    I really like these but they do run a size small. I wear a 4 and needed a 6 for the waist. I’m 5’7 and they are slightly flooded🥰 but 🤷🏽‍♀️they are still cute.

    My new favs

    Can I give these a 10? Because I would. I love these so much. The fit is very flattering, the jean is just the right amount of stretch and they’re true to size. I’m normally a 27, and am a 4 in these. I’m 5’8” and the length is just right. People that rated this a 1, mostly rated it such bc of the delivery, not the product… how do we delete those types of ratings?

    Nice jeans.

    They are comfortable and have stretch which I love. They do run a little small in my opinion. I ordered my usual size 4 and a size 6 and the 4 was a little tight in the waist. I haven’t gained weight. The 6 fit better. My skinny daughter is a size 2 and she kept the 2 but the 4 fit her waist but they were baggy in the thighs and seat on her. I think it’s a waist issue. But I love the jeans overall. Got them on sale for a deal of the day promo.

    Good!!

    Not sure why so many people are saying to size up?! I normally wear a size 10, sometimes a size 12. Luckily I bought these in a 10 and they fit perfectly. I am 5’6 and the regular length fits pretty much perfectly. I wish they were maybe a tad longer, but they work with flats. They are pretty wide but I like that the top part is more fitted. I will say that I also bought the black pants and the material is not as soft and they just looked kind of weird so I returned them.

    Soft, high rise, wide leg jean

    Fit as described. Very soft. Some stretch. I’m usually size 6 bought size 8 regular. Fits like my normal 6, so size up. I’m 5’10” 147lbs. Regular length was just right for flat shoes.

    The jeans themselves are great and feel great on. True to size, but the regular length is not short girl friendly. My size was not available in the short option.

    Short is not short enough

    The reason I don't like them is because even though I ordered a short(I am 5 ft 1 1/2, they were extremely long.?I will have to return.

    The jeans fit great everywhere and are very flattering. However, they are EXTREMELY long. I’m 5’ 6” and bought regular length and they were about 5in too long…

    Comfiest jeans

    As a 5,9 girly, I am so excited to have a pair of jeans long enough! These are so comfy that I’ve literally napped in them, something unheard of for me. The size 8 was perfect (150 lbs for sizing context.) I got the two darker colors and wear them everywhere.

    I love these pants, the fit the style, but I am 5‘3” and I don’t like for my pants too drag the ground. It I had to add a hymn to the pants. I would love if universal would make petite sizes.

    Soft Material, misleading fit

    love how soft the material is. dislike how sloppy Target is getting. details describe regular fit, but the sticker on the pair that arrived are "slim" fitted.

    Should've bought 2 pairs!

    I haven't bought jeans in over 15 years! After having my 1st child and discovering leggings and jeggings, I said goodbye to jeans 😂 But these?! I LOVE them!! They're sooooo comfy, cute, and flattering! I feel so confident wearing them. I just wish I had bought two pairs!
