Ive been watching for about a week now and literally only just realised you only have 100k subs. I honestly had it in my head that you were at like 1.5m. I cannot wait for this channel and the budget to blow tf up because in a week alone you've elevated my dress game SO much
My problem is that 32" length jeans are too short, and 34" are way too long. I'm over 6'2, I just have a long torso and short legs. I wish more manufacturers made 33" leg jeans. 😔
This is super helpful but it’s worth mentioning that the taper and the size of the leg opening make a big difference when it comes to length. I’ve had pants (that came intentionally very long) hemmed to the point that the leg hole got noticeably bigger and it looked nothing like what I thought it would when finished.
Thanks for the info Tim! This is a question I have always had when looking for new pants, which makes it hard for me to decide what pair to buy or not. As a shorter guy as well, it is good to get your feedback on this matter! Keep up the great work!
Quality, clear and to the point. Your in a whole different league to other men's fashion channels, congrats on getting to 100k, you definitely deserve it !
Tim seriously went from 20k to nearing 100k subs in 7 months, that's some insane and well deserved progress. If I had to judge your sub count just by your content quality, I'd guess at least 10 million subs no less Keep making great content and making us guys look good!
I am most unluckiest in terms of denims and Pants I have big calves because of muscular dystrophy it's impossible to find right jeans all my jeans are altered I have to buy big size to get fit which results in loose waist and I can't do without belts. I can't wear skinny jeans or slim fit only loose fit is my option
Ok so question. I figured out my fit and the chinos just touch the tops of my shoes. So it’s normal for them to basically flood when I sit down? I don’t have an issue with this but is it normal?
Man, I love your content. I'm a girl but I like to dress more to the masculine/androgynous side and the content of this channel is so interesting. Great quality!
Can relate! I'm also a girl but this is the only fashion content that has ever made sense to me. I love the concise, simple, straightforward way in which it's presented. Fashion is something I want to succeed at because it's important in social/professional settings, but I have a hard time mustering the energy to care and not falling back on jeans and sweats all the time.
1 point to note. Always do a first wash before hemming your pants, especially denims as they have elastin mixture. Coz if you hem them before washing they’ll become shorter than you ideally want them.
The more elastane, the less this is actually an issue. The component that ACTUALLY shrinks is cotton, particularly is if jeans weren't pretreated, prewashed, or (as raw enthusiasts will tell you) pre-set. Cotton is notorious for shrinkage, which is why most fabric comes prewashed or pretreated. Hanging items to dry would prevent most shrinkage, as 90% of what I've seen comes from washing, followed by immediately throwing it into the dryer.
This is super subjective, but the full break will look and feel best for most, especially when sitting, and is more suitable for nearly any type of shoe. When pants are too short, they look dorky and will lift up too high when your knees bend. You can't say something is wrong just because you don't personally feel like it's right. Same vice versa. I personally think the extra length looks and feels much better regardless of the type of pants to be frank. This seems to be the general consensus for most guys that don't wear tight pants. 😅 Why a man would want to show off his ankles is beyond me lol. You do you.
This video is triggering, as I'm a bit traumatized in having pants with no breaks because in grade school you'd be made fun of for wearing 'high waters.' I cut my jeans too short and now I'm regretting it. I'm not used to having pants so short as to not bunch up. Gotta relax.
Nice video, but me being an older guy I can’t wear my pants too short showing too much ankle like younger guys because it looks ridiculous so I prefer a full break.
My opinion of pant length is that it is decided from the whole outfit. Actually for some outfits a big bulge around the ankle ties it all together, while another outfit calls for pants end a couple of inches above the ankle. The shoes is more important in the question than the type of pant if u ask me. If wearing any kind of boot-like footwear my opinion is that the pant should end above it… no break at all… not even touching the boot. But if u instead wear a sneaker or sport type shoe and maybe some cargo-like pants a very extreme break can elevate the entire thing… But it is always different for every case
When I sit down, my pant legs ride up really high, and that's most of my day, but if I get longer pants they're too long when I'm standing, not sure what to do
Hey Ervin! I'm also 5'7'', and when it comes to joggers I would recommend finding a brand that makes sizes that fit your height. I've managed to find some well-fitting ones off-the-rack from Zara and Uniqlo in the past. But yes it is possible to shorten or taper joggers, a good tailor will do it without issue.
I don't agree with everything you say but atleast you give an answer. many other channels end with "there is not right answer, do what you like." people can do that but the reason for watching the video is to see what the standard is so that we can decide to abide by or break it lol. i don’t know why other channels don't get that.
The term “proper” in fashion just creates separation and elitism. I like my jeans stacked you like a half break but as long as we both feel as though we look good that’s all that matters.
I agree with you. This video is more meant for the average guy who perhaps isn't as fashion-savvy and just needs some help figuring out what a "standard" length looks like. They're guidelines, not hard rules 🙂 Perhaps I could've worded it better and done a better job at communicating my POV on this. Keep doing you!
Jeans look ace stacked (and ok with boots) with trainers but not with shoes. I have ones from 30 to 36 depending on what wearing with. I’m 6.2. No strict rules for jeans unlike trousers.
I wanted to keep this one short and sweet, since it's a simple topic and didn't require a very long video. But I'll make some longer videos on more complex topics in the future 🙂
Finding pants "made" long enough is the real problem. A 36 in inseem for casual pants is a rarity. Dress trousers made long enough to turn up a cuff, is a dream come true (in the land of hobbits.
Give it a try some time! Sometimes you think you can't pull off a certain piece of clothing but you'd be surprised how often something you're not used to can look great on you 🙂
i use to buy 31/32 jeans and id often wash them to shrink down. now i just buy 31/30 since they don't make ( 31/31 ) i wash cold and hang dry. perfect fit everytime.
This is such a helpful guide! I’m just starting to wear “men’s” clothing and tailoring my pants myself since I’m 5’2”. Coming from “women’s” clothing I had never heard of a break.
Can’t go wrong with Common Project white sneakers, Koio, Oliver Cabell like he is wearing, Greats or the best bang for your buck, Thursday sneakers. All those White Leather sneakers are great quality and will look good with everything.
Nice info man. I also believe the length of the pants in an outfit and the kinds of shoes you wear needs to be right on point. For example, I personally like to wear boots (midcut) and cargos with a full break in them, that's just me. Also, the half break jeans with the white sneaks look really dope. Will try. ✌️
Thx for video. I want tailored my jeans for no break (im short side). But yes the half break give so much more flexibility. Especially that with different shoe i can adjust easly proper lengt.
I noticed majority of white sneakers in the market have heavy soles and it’s super tiring to wear them for long hours. Cheap brands, affordable brands, expensive brands, whatever…..
Hello. Can u please tell me your opinion on this: I have bought white,. very fine, smooth jeans pants (Hacket London) and shortened them on the size of no brake like u have showed on your chinos. I am not sure is that good now. Looks a bit short. Wanted it like this so the shoes (loafers or other classy shoes) can be seen. Wear it with the Suit jacket also or just with the shirt or T-shirt. Cheers
Hi sir thank you for session.. Sir please make a video on 1.what color, types of jeans and chinos have to wear on BLACK COLOR SNEAKERS Please sir.. Thank you
Why does that bother you though? It's quite normal for pants to rise up as you sit down. If you're wearing socks and your skin is showing, your socks might not be long enough though (unless they're no-show obviously).
School started already mah bro bro. Hopefully u can hook us up with a back to school wardrobe (hopefully something which is unique-ish, with your twist)
I remember the 90s when it was cool to drag your baggy-ass jeans on the concrete and distressing them that way, along with all the dirt and grime that gets picked up along the way. Glad I never did that, but was a XXL tshirt type of student back then (when I am actually a S/M tshirt size). good times!
When you get your jeans shortened, do you get them to keep the original hem or make a new one? If you get them to make a new hem, can they make it look original or does that depend on the skill of the tailor?
A super late response… but for those wondering… your tailor should be able to do a ‘Euro’ hem, where the pant leg is shortened but the original hem is retained. My tailor offers two different Euro hems. One where the original fabric is folded up (on the inside) and visible if you were to roll up your pant leg… and the other where the result isn’t noticeable.
Typically, I measure jeans and dress pants to two different lengths: Jeans, to the floor while on minus an inch. While denim tends to stretch, typically made denim is less flexible than athletic pants, i.e. Dress pants, resting on the shoe. Dress pants are (typically) a more constricting fabric. And despite having SOME stretch, aren't constructed to give a wide range of movement should they fit close to the body. In this case, keeping the pants at a length where they can't touch the ground and only expose one's sock (or foot) slightly while not in motion. Elsewise, your pants aren't falling into either category. Those pants are athletic, casual dress, a form of chino, or a short. This might be an EXTREMELY unpopular opinion, but no man should ever wear a capri pant. If you're wearing your pants longer than an 18 inch inseam (without being quite short) but MORE than 4 inches about your foot.. burn those pants.
Definitely your opinion (that’s obvious). Your chino example for no break, slight break or no break looks terrible. Then add on the rolled up cuff, and to me it looks like a disaster. I had 5 pairs of Lacoste joggers (same exact pair) and sold them after a few months because they basically mirrored the length of your video example - way too short, could afford an extra 1 inch at least. Then your jeans example, if that were me, your recommended example would be way too short. Then your example of cropped trousers have way too big of an opening,

Good video, the only problem with me is that I’m short and most manufactures or brands don’t make short chino pants or jeans. I’m lucky if I find levis with a length of 29 or 30. Jeans it’s not worth it taking them to a tailor unless you take them to a expensive tailor and spend lots of $$$.

In what way? Some tailors will keep the original hem for an extra cost.

I noticed majority of white sneakers in the market have heavy soles and it’s super tiring to wear them for long hours. Cheap brands, affordable brands, expensive brands, whatever…..
Hello. Can u please tell me your opinion on this: I have bought white,.
very fine, smooth jeans pants (Hacket London) and shortened them on the size of no brake like u have showed on your chinos. I am not sure is that good now. Looks a bit short. Wanted it like this so the shoes (loafers or other classy shoes) can be seen. Wear it with the Suit jacket also or just with the shirt or T-shirt.
Cheers
Hi sir thank you for session.. Sir please make a video on
1.what color, types of jeans and chinos have to wear on BLACK COLOR SNEAKERS
Please sir.. Thank you
you dress like a teacher dont talk bout fashion
The problem i find with no break formal pants is that they rise up very high when you sit down
Why does that bother you though? It's quite normal for pants to rise up as you sit down. If you're wearing socks and your skin is showing, your socks might not be long enough though (unless they're no-show obviously).
School started already mah bro bro. Hopefully u can hook us up with a back to school wardrobe (hopefully something which is unique-ish, with your twist)
I plan on doing a back to school video soon!
Quick question, what’s the brand from your white shoes? They look so simple, yet amazing.
Oliver Cabell - Low 1
I'm tall and my legs are really long and skinny - any hint of a break exacerbates all that and ruins whatever look I try to go for.
Dungarees boot cut - all day - Yeh!
Good thing chinos are supposed to look like that, mine shrunk so god damned much in the wash I thought I was screwed
I can understand your arguments, it's fair enough.
I liked this shorter video, does help me rest a little bit.
I remember the 90s when it was cool to drag your baggy-ass jeans on the concrete and distressing them that way, along with all the dirt and grime that gets picked up along the way. Glad I never did that, but was a XXL tshirt type of student back then (when I am actually a S/M tshirt size). good times!
We all went through that phase haha!
When you get your jeans shortened, do you get them to keep the original hem or make a new one? If you get them to make a new hem, can they make it look original or does that depend on the skill of the tailor?
A super late response… but for those wondering… your tailor should be able to do a ‘Euro’ hem, where the pant leg is shortened but the original hem is retained. My tailor offers two different Euro hems. One where the original fabric is folded up (on the inside) and visible if you were to roll up your pant leg… and the other where the result isn’t noticeable.
Typically, I measure jeans and dress pants to two different lengths:
Jeans, to the floor while on minus an inch. While denim tends to stretch, typically made denim is less flexible than athletic pants, i.e.
Dress pants, resting on the shoe. Dress pants are (typically) a more constricting fabric. And despite having SOME stretch, aren't constructed to give a wide range of movement should they fit close to the body.
In this case, keeping the pants at a length where they can't touch the ground and only expose one's sock (or foot) slightly while not in motion.
Elsewise, your pants aren't falling into either category.
Those pants are athletic, casual dress, a form of chino, or a short.
This might be an EXTREMELY unpopular opinion, but no man should ever wear a capri pant.
If you're wearing your pants longer than an 18 inch inseam (without being quite short) but MORE than 4 inches about your foot.. burn those pants.
Pants are always going down to my feet because i’m only 5’5 and it’s sucks. What am I supposed to do Tim?
Definitely your opinion (that’s obvious). Your chino example for no break, slight break or no break looks terrible. Then add on the rolled up cuff, and to me it looks like a disaster. I had 5 pairs of Lacoste joggers (same exact pair) and sold them after a few months because they basically mirrored the length of your video example - way too short, could afford an extra 1 inch at least. Then your jeans example, if that were me, your recommended example would be way too short. Then your example of cropped trousers have way too big of an opening,
hey tim, i discovered your channel about 1-2 months ago and i love the simplicity of the stuff you show. i have been wondering all this time though: you are born and raised in france, correct? your english is completely fluent and you don't have an accent at all. why is that?
Hello! Glad to hear you've been enjoying the content! Welcome to the channel 😊 I was indeed born in France, but not raised there. I grew up moving around countries a lot as a kid (basically moved every 3 years), and one of the countries I lived in at a young age was Canada (Toronto), which is where my English comes from.
@@TimDessaint dude, i can't believe i missed your reply from a year ago! really sorry about that! i don't know why i never got notified. i just randomly revisited this video today and noticed your response. anyway, thanks for the reply. that must have been quite the experience to move around so much. my parents are also from different backgrounds, so i feel we're in the same boat. d'ailleurs, j'aimerais enormement voire une video ou tu parles le francais aussi!;)
I don't know man, not stacking your jeans looks really swaggerless.
Good video, the only problem with me is that I’m short and most manufactures or brands don’t make short chino pants or jeans. I’m lucky if I find levis with a length of 29 or 30. Jeans it’s not worth it taking them to a tailor unless you take them to a expensive tailor and spend lots of $$$.
I just rolled them but they come out smashed donut 🍩 😡
What should I do if my slim fit jeans get looser over time?
Wash em under medium wash
You kinda look like the professor from money heist
Haha first time I've hear that one! 😅
