Before we get into sizing, let's talk about why Judy Blue jeans have become a boutique favorite.

The short version: Judy Blue jeans typically run true to size with generous stretch.
However, there are a few important factors that affect fit:
Let's break down each factor so you can make the best choice.
This is the most common question, and the answer depends on a few factors:
Judy Blue jeans will stretch about half a size with wear. If you're between sizes and want a snug fit initially, go with your smaller size—they'll stretch to be comfortable. If you want immediate comfort, size up.
Here's how Judy Blue sizing typically compares to other popular denim brands:
| Brand | Judy Blue Equivalent | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard US Sizing | True to size | Most consistent with department store sizing |
| Levi's | Same size | Similar fit, but Judy Blue has more stretch |
| American Eagle | Size up 1 | AE runs smaller; Judy Blue more forgiving |
| Madewell | Same size | Comparable fit and stretch |
| Risen Jeans | Same size | Fellow boutique brand with similar sizing |
| Flying Monkey | Size up 1 | Flying Monkey runs smaller and less stretch |
| KanCan | Same size | Very similar boutique sizing |

Not all Judy Blue jeans fit the same way. Here's what to expect from each style:
Judy Blue uses different fabric blends that affect how much the jeans stretch:
💡 Pro Tip: Check the product description for fabric content. Higher spandex/elastane = more stretch = consider sizing down if you want a fitted look.
Yes, like most jeans with stretch, Judy Blue jeans will stretch about half a size with wear. They'll return closer to original size after washing. If you want them to stay fitted all day, consider sizing down.
Yes! Judy Blue's extended sizing (14W-24W) follows the same fit principles as regular sizing. The "W" sizing provides more room through the hips and thighs while maintaining the same quality stretch and fit.
Judy Blue offers three standard inseams:
Styling Tip: If you want a specific hem (raw, cuffed, or stacked), choose the longer inseam and have them hemmed or cuff them yourself.
If you can't button them comfortably, size up. If there's significant gapping at the waist, size down.
Best Styles: High waist flare, bootcut, wide leg
Sizing Tip: Order true size in high-stretch styles to accommodate hips while fitting waist
Why: High waist prevents gapping; flare balances proportions
Best Styles: Tummy control high waist, mid-rise straight leg
Sizing Tip: True to size; look for styles with tummy control panels
Why: Structured waist provides support and smoothing
Best Styles: Any high waist or mid-rise style
Sizing Tip: True to size works perfectly
Why: Judy Blue's stretch accommodates curves while defining waist
Best Styles: Low rise, boyfriend, straight leg
Sizing Tip: True to size or size down in high-stretch
Why: Creates curves and doesn't require accommodating a waist/hip ratio
Best Styles: Any style with 27" inseam; high waist elongates
Sizing Tip: True to size; hem if needed
Why: Proper proportions prevent overwhelming your frame
Best Styles: Any style with 31" inseam; long flare and bootcut
Sizing Tip: True to size; look for "long" or "tall" options
Why: Proper length prevents awkward ankle exposure
