Your inseam is your inseam, rise is dependant of the front rise and back rise of the pants in question which is how far the pants extend from the crotch upwards at the front and rear

13"-14" is a good high rise. Anything more you're up into cigarette pant territory

surely that is entirely dependant on the cut of the pant all good I would say personally anything with a front rise around 12" and above is going to be a high rise for myself

True, but generally from the average size range of 30-36 a 14" rise is going to be a nice high rise.

That's not what you said though, you said anything above 13-14" is into cigarette pant territory

For example these have a 15.5" front rise and nothing about that says cigarette to me, which is what I meant when I said entirely dependant on the cut

@Zee The fatigues I'm wearing here have a 15" front rise and I'm also a 34" waist https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1116800072093532191/1226207990378659850 The jeans here have a 12.6" front rise which seemed super high rise when I first got them and now I just think of them as normal https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1116800072093532191/1167779543088648192

It depends on you body tbh. I've leaned 12-12.5 is plenty high for me. 13 is getting to high for me and look like those 15's above. /not trying to body shame!

Also a good point, people will have different proportions on torso to leg lengths so trying on some different rise pants at a store would be a good place to experiment

Like 15's on me would unironically be at my nips. This is fucking outstanding though.

I think they sit about an inch above my belly button if I wear them as high as they can go

Definitely good images to show because they look as high/a little higher than the fatigues I posted they look great also

I‘m the opposite. A 13 inch rise will land nicely below my belly button which makes getting high rise trousers very hard for me.

Damn that really sucks
