DENIM FITTINGS
Finding the perfect pair of vintage jeans can be notoriously difficult. In our studio, we offer guidance and a large array of styles, washes, and colors to make the hunt less arduous.
Denim fittings happen in person at our studio. Cost includes fitting plus one pair of jeans. Our baseline denim starts at $68; a few select styles are higher-priced based on age and brand.
WHAT TO EXPECT
We don’t use jean sizes as they are completely inconsistent over brands and eras. Instead, we organize our collection by measurements. We start a fitting by taking a measurement at the waist where you like the waistband to hit and determine a preferred rise (how high the jeans hit on the waist). We then pull stacks of jeans within that range to find the best hip and leg shape. Our inventory is always changing and we aim to carry options with waistbands between 24” and 42”. Bodies vary in both size and shape—the perfect pair of jeans is one that was cut to your specific ratios. While we cannot guarantee a perfect pair, we promise you will leave with a better understanding of what you are specifically looking for going forward. Check out our customer testimonials below for a glimpse into the denim fitting experience.
We recommend that you allow yourself some time for the process and wear a top and shoes that you would realistically wear with jeans. At this time, reservations are not required—though we recommend coming on a Thursday, Friday, or Sunday when the shop is usually less busy.

DENIM FITTING TESTIMONIALS
"Burlington friends: I hate shopping, especially for jeans, but checked out Project Object Vintage for a jean fitting—it was THE MOST therapeutic and healing shopping experience I've ever had. I was hoping to find 1 pair and ended up with 5 (very affordable!) pairs that I absolutely love AND the fitting was included in the cost of the first pair of jeans!!" — Rebecca
"Love shopping at POV! Such a beautifully curated selection of pre-loved clothes, and a nice variety of style and size. Buying jeans here is a dream, she has so many to choose from and is happy to measure you to find the best options for your body!" — Emmie
"This place is so lovely. There are always such cool finds. You can also get a denim fitting for free! (Best if done on days that are not too busy). I tried on upwards of 12 pairs of jeans today—a task that would typically be horrendous—and felt so supported by the knowledgeable owner. At one point, I put on a pair and thought “oh it feels like I just put on my jeans” and walked away with them for under $70. 10/10 experience." — Esme
"Oh my goodness Sam is INCREDIBLE. She curates beautiful vintage pieces with care and intention. She literally sifted through dozens of pants to help me find the perfect pair and not only did I find ONE perfect pair, BUT THREE!! She’s got a gift for knowing exactly what will fit and what you never knew you wanted and needed! I felt so seen and comfy as buying pants ain’t always cute...RUN to this beautiful small biz for one-of-a-kind pieces that will 100% become part of your everyday rotation. Xx" — Lauren
