There is a general confusion when it comes to wearing turn-ups and I think you have to look at the variables. 1) What shoes will you be wearing, 2) What shape is the jean, 3) How old is the wearer.
There’s a rising trend at the moment to turn-up jeans and chinos to the ankle to show off your socks! Not your bag, then read on but I have to say, if your jeans are too long please don’t tuck the excess fabric under, get them shortened by a tailor! So I’ve gathered together some visual info to get you rolling your own in no time!

How about turn ups on bleached jeans and 14 hole oxblood doc martins
I am 52 with an inseam of 30”. Just bought Ralph Lauren jeans with an inseam of 32”. I want to turn up the jeans but my wife says that turning up is for younger people only and it suits them.. Is this true ?
If yes then what are my options as Ralph Lauren don’t do a 34/30. They only do a 34/32 unfortunately.
Hi Teepu, thanks for your comment. Yes for sure you can wear turn-up jeans as long as they are a skinny/ straight leg style. Alternatively you could get the inseam taken up and the original hem kept on if the hem is a feature of the jean it would be a shame to lose it. Don’t let age hold you back, jeans are to be worn at all ages! Sam x
Depending on the shoe you are wearing there should be a slight over lap from shoe to hem. That’s the beauty of a turn up you can change the length with your different shoes!
How low should the jeans legs be? A bit baggy at the bottom?
Hi Jim, if your Gustin’s are selvadge denim then definitely they should be turned up to show the red seam. Age really doesn’t matter!
How about a 60 year old guy with a 30″ inseam wearing 36″ Gustin’s?
What shoes would you recommend with turn ups?
Trainers, Loafers and lace-up brogues will all look good with turn-ups. What type of jeans are you wearing?
