About this article

This article intends to match consumers with brands that make jeans for tall men, specifically offering jeans in lengths 36 inches and above. This article is managed by Todd Shelton, a jean manufacturer in New Jersey, specializing in fit solutions for men of all heights. No commissions are made from links in this article.

Why some brands can offer jeans for tall men

Unfortunately, few brands make jeans for tall men, and it’s easy to understand why. Only a small percentage of potential customers need jean lengths above 34″, and it doesn’t make financial sense for brands to carry the inventory costs on slow-moving lengths like 36″ or 38″. Brands would rather invest in lengths they know will sell quicker.

But a few brands are uniquely positioned to offer jeans for tall men. 1) Tall men niche brands, 2) Made-to-order brands, and 3) brands so large that even a small percentage of their customers (who need long inseams) is still a serviceable number.
