As someone who’s vertically gifted, finding well-fitting jeans can be a "tall" order. It’s not just about the inseam length—we’re often left feeling like we’re wearing capris instead of pants because of how short the rise is. But fear not, fellow long-legged folks! Auburn, Maine has got you covered with plenty of stores to find jeans that fit like a glove (or should I say, a pair of perfectly proportioned pants).
First up is Barksdale’s of Auburn. This family-owned store has been around since 1928 and has a wide selection of denim for all sizes, including a great selection for those of us on the taller side. You can expect to pay around $50 to $100 for a pair of jeans here.
Next, we have J.C. Penney at the Auburn Mall. This store has a dedicated section for tall sizes, and their selection of denim is top-notch. With prices ranging from $30 to $60, this is a great spot to pick up a few pairs without breaking the bank.
For high-end denim, head to Nordstrom Rack in the nearby city of South Portland. While not specific to tall sizes, they do carry plenty of brands with longer inseams, like DL1961 and Frame. You’ll pay a bit more here (around $100 to $150 per pair), but the quality is worth it.
If you’re looking for a good deal, try Old Navy. They have a range of sizes, including "tall" and "tall plus," and their prices are hard to beat. You can snag a pair of jeans for as little as $25.
Moving on, we have Kohl’s on Center Street. Their tall section includes a variety of brands and styles, with prices ranging from $30 to $60. Plus, they often have sales and promotions that can bring the price down even further.
At the Auburn Target, you’ll find a surprisingly good selection of denim for tall people at affordable prices (around $30 to $40 per pair). They also carry a few different brands, so you can try out different fits and styles.
Burlington, located at Center Street Plaza, is another great option for tall denim. They have a solid selection of sizes, and the prices are quite reasonable (around $35 to $50 per pair).
For something a bit trendier, try Express at the Maine Mall in South Portland. While not specifically for tall sizes, they do carry extra long inseams in some styles, and their denim is always fashion-forward. You’ll pay a bit more here (around $80 per pair), but the quality and style make it worth it.
Another trendy spot is American Eagle Outfitters, also at the Maine Mall. They have a dedicated tall section with a great selection of denim, including high-waisted options and trendy crop flares. Prices range from $40 to $70 per pair.
Last but not least, we have Lane Bryant on Whitten Road. While known for their plus-size clothing, they also carry tall sizes in denim. You’ll pay a bit more here (around $60 to $80 per pair), but the fit and quality are excellent.
There you have it, folks—ten places in Auburn (and nearby) to find jeans for tall people. Don’t let your height stand in the way of your fashion game—go forth and find your perfect pair of pants!
