I like a mid rise on me but that is 8.5 inches which may be low rise on others. I rarely find any pants with this rise in the thrift stores in my area. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-the-approximate-rise-of-these-jeans#post-2339023 Wed, 20 Sep 2023 18:41:27 +0000 ophelia 2339023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would say those are very low rise, which are my fave. I also have a generous rear end &amp; these are the only style that minimizes that. So, I only wear very low or just low (since mid rise has been redefined by marketers &amp; is much higher than they used to be).<br /> Belts will prevent any gaping. Also low rise unders so they don’t stick out.<br /> My parents were good about letting me choose my own style, but my friend had to smuggle prohibited clothes out &amp; change elsewhere.<br /> Eta: low rise does not cause stomach distress, to which I am highly prone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-the-approximate-rise-of-these-jeans#post-2339003 Wed, 20 Sep 2023 16:58:49 +0000 slim cat 2339003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like low rise - works for my short waist - but not super low rise. Recently I see &nbsp;enough options for mid rise jeans ( wide leg, straight, relaxed ) that suppose to be worn lower on the waist in a slouch-y style - that could work instead of low rise jeans that in the pic.&nbsp;<br />It is a very personal matter of course.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-the-approximate-rise-of-these-jeans#post-2338999 Wed, 20 Sep 2023 16:41:49 +0000 Jules 2338999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a parent and am uncomfortable with discussions of minors' bodies to this degree&nbsp;on this forum. I think people who want to ask these types of questions should keep them general, not specific to anyone's body other than their own. This is based not just on this post but some that have happened in the past.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-the-approximate-rise-of-these-jeans#post-2338985 Wed, 20 Sep 2023 15:01:49 +0000 Carol 2338985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They definitely look low rise. I have heard they're back in style, so I'm surprised it's hard to find new ones.</p> <p>I lived painfully through the low-rise years, and I definitely sometimes had butt crack issues. My advice would be to always wear a belt with them--this helps.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-the-approximate-rise-of-these-jeans#post-2338980 Wed, 20 Sep 2023 14:16:00 +0000 awv1 2338980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for replying, Angie. My daughter is a teenager, and she wants to wear low rise jeans. She knows that low rise jeans are hardly ever made anymore, so she wants to go to a thrift store to find a few pairs. I'm wondering what you, and everyone else here, personally think of low rise jeans. Do you think they only look good on certain body types, and not on others?</p> <p>I've never actually worn low rise jeans myself, so I'm not feeling so sure about my daughter's idea. Also, I've set a few rules for her. The first rule is that her jeans can only be moderately low, and not super low. The second rule is that she's not allowed to have a wardrobe malfunction, such as plumber's crack, while wearing them. Her butt is on the bigger side, so this is something that I'm worried about. Since she's an active girl who's always moving around at school, she might have to choose a pair that comes up higher in the back for more coverage. In fact, I've heard you should always do a sit test in the fitting room to make sure your jeans stay in place no matter how you move. Do you guys have any thoughts on this that you'd like to share? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-the-approximate-rise-of-these-jeans#post-2338899 Tue, 19 Sep 2023 18:56:48 +0000 April 2338899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My vote is for super low rise, aka "the rise that April could never wear." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-the-approximate-rise-of-these-jeans#post-2338898 Tue, 19 Sep 2023 18:16:48 +0000 Angie 2338898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My guess is 7.5 inches.&nbsp;</p> <p>It's low rise on the wearer - bordering on super low rise, compared to the mid and high rises that have been trending for years, IYKWIM. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-the-approximate-rise-of-these-jeans#post-2338896 Tue, 19 Sep 2023 15:49:48 +0000 awv1 2338896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>N/A </p>
