As long as this company exists I will buy jeans from nowhere else.

From the time my growth spurt started in my mid teens I was not able to find jeans that really fit me until I found this company. I have a very unique shape to my lower half and jeans that would fit in some places, wouldn't fit in others. No more! I can have my jeans fit as tight or as loose as I want.

They offer a wide range of denim material in different colors, weights, styles, etc. and additionally offer khakis, chinos and dress pants. Get the jeans first though. Nothing can compare with a pair of jeans that fits well.

The jeans are made in India and shipped directly generally with a turn around time of a couple weeks. Pretty impressive for custom made clothes from half way around the world.

The only negative is the nature of custom fitting through the internet. You may have to order a "trial pair" of jeans before you get the fit right. Make sure to choose the fit wisely as well (Comfort, Bootcut, Baggy, Straight Leg, etc.)

My question is related to that "trial pair". I have always worn my pants at my hips, not at my waist, so I'm not sure what measurements to give them. Do I give my true waist and hip measurements and hope for the best, or measure my waist at my hip?

I would do the latter, but I'm afraid it would result in some horrible abomination of a pair of pants.

I'm exactly the same as you. I wear my jeans low on my waist.

Give them accurate measurements for your waist and hips.

What you'll want to do is two things so they adjust the jeans according to what you want.

1) Set the front rise to something smaller than typical. Maybe you can measure a low rise pair of jeans that you have? I have my front rise at 9 inches.

2) For the Rise selection box, choose Low Waist.

Note: I've never specified the Back Rise. As explained on their site: "We can keep the back rise according to our expert's knowledge but if you want a certain back rise measurement you can specify it here."
