Ariat Women's Pants Size Chart

Body measurements in inches for Ariat women's jeans and pants, including FR jeans and FR work pants. Ariat women's bottoms are sold by waist size and inseam length.

How to measure

  • Waist: around your natural waist, the narrowest part of your torso.
  • Low hip: around the fullest part of your hips and seat.
  • Inseam: the inside leg seam, crotch to hem, measured on a pair of pants that fit you right.

Keep the tape snug, not tight. Waist and hip in the chart are body measurements; inseam is the length of the pant leg.

Between sizes

  • Ariat's advice: take the smaller size for a closer fit or the larger size for a looser fit.
  • From size 31 up, the body waist runs bigger than the size number: a 32 fits a 33 inch waist and a 34 fits a 36 inch waist.
