My height is 5'7" and inseam is approx 29". Based on body build, trouser rise, cut, and break style, even fellas with the same height will likely have different inseams. I use a military (or West Point, guardsmen, slanted) break, so the back is about 1/4"-1/2" longer than the front.
The inseam varies with an individuals preference - no break, slight break, full break - and an individuals anatomy - long waisted, short waisted, standard. There is no absolute ratio.

But my pants range in inseams from 31.5" to 34". It all depends on cut, type, rise, etc. As I grow older (and more inclined to the style of the trad forum), I prefer less and less break.
Do you'll tend to wear jeans the same way in terms of break? Or lower on the shoe. (Or higher) Alot of people wear jeans touching or barely off the ground and I want opinions on that. I'm deciding whether to wear my jeans (inseams 33 or 34 usually because of brand) like that, purposely shrink them to about 32 inseam, or have them hemmed to about 32.
