The inseam is a measurement that measures a pants leg from the inside of the leg starting at the crotch and going down to the cuff. This has fallen out of fashion, and today most pants in America are measured from waist to cuff.

In*seam" (?), v. t. [imp. & p. p. Inseamed (?); p. pr. & vb. n. Inseaming.]

To impress or mark with a seam or cicatrix.

Pope.
