Gap tall jeans?

shaz

Hi I was wondering if anyone had tried the gap tall jeans and if they are true to size I can only get tall jeans and pants online here. So if anyone knows what they are like it would help or even just regular gap jeans. Thanks

I have tried Gap tall jeans in the regular straight and bootcut styles. They seem to run true to size. You don't mention how tall you are, but for reference I am 5'8" and Gap longs fit me better than Gap talls as I only need the longer length in the leg, not the rise.

Strangely, I haven't tried the tall jeans, but I should because I have a long rise. I have tried their tall tops and they are a great fit, they proportion them well.

Hi I'm 5"9 but mostly legs short body short and neck and no shops cater for that here anymore I used to get my jeans and trousers in topshop until they all went high rise and skinny meaning the waist would be nearly under my boobs not a good look They have a few styles in gap at the moment on sale in my size I guess I won't know till I try thanks ladies

Karie, they don't have any of the longs on the Europe site just the us site I wonder if it's possible to order from the us site instead as the tall is an inch to long, tops are easy enough with short body I could probably get away with petite depending on the shop and normal coats jackets and sweaters are long enough in the sleeves it's the trousers and jeans that are troublesome

this may or may not help, but I have tried on petite jeans that have been returns in stores, and have found them to be proportioned smaller overall, which leads me to think that talls would be longer rises/legs as well. The rises are really short

it's F&F now, so may be worth just ordering some talls to try out? vs longs in regular

I mostly wear Gap jeans in longs-- I'm 5'9" with long legs. I think for most of their longs the straight legs have a 34"+ inseam and the bootcuts will have a 35" at least. If you truly need longer than that, you'll have to buy tall. If you can get away with the longs you can go to your local store and figure out what size you are in the pant and then order them in long online-- I live closer to a Gap now so I try to do this. I do think that they run true to size (the long and leans run 1 size big for me), but what varies widely is the fabric they are made out of-- they do list percentages online, but I find some of the lighter weight denim or with more stretch I need a smaller size. All but one pair of my jeans are Gap.
