Size Guide

Sizing in women's apparel is very challenging, we truly get it. The extensive information below is intended to give you as much guidance as possible so that you can find what works best for you in our Moxie & Moss Maven work pant.

The left column of our size guide is the most common American size grade.
The third column is a general size guide for additional comparison.

Kate, our founder, is our fit model. She's 5'7" tall and has a 27” waist and a 38” hip. Her inseam is 30”. She weighs 132 pounds.
She wears a size 6/28 in the Black and Indigo Flex Mavens and a size 4/27 in the Indigo Power Flex Maven. She sizes down on the Power Flex because of its flexible nature and construction. Because the denim is premium, it does not lose shape/blow out; it gives and molds to the body over time.
She wears all of her Mavens in a size 32” inseam cuz she likes a good cuff!

Our sizing system is not based on vanity sizing, it is a fairly democratic, true reflection of a woman’s measurements and proportions.
We do not put specific measurements on our size chart because, honestly, we have found that they confuse people more and the pants sizing can be different depending on which fabric you choose (see bullet #5 above).

When you try on your Mavens for the first time, there should be no gapping in the back of the waistband or extra fabric around/below the crotch. They should fit like they just came out of a hot dryer. When sized right, the fabric will conform to your body over time, but not bag out like some fashion stretch jeans do.
