American Eagle to Levi's jeans size

The short answer

American Eagle 12 is Levi's 30 by the two brands' own charts.

Both brands publish the body waist each size is cut for, so every row matches a waist, not a tag.

Every American Eagle size read across to Levi's. US numeric sizes on the left, Waist size on the right.

Tinted rows change label or sit between two sizes. 2 sizes have no counterpart on the Levi's chart. Read from the two charts only; no formula and no averaging.
