We’ve marveled for the past week at Katie Holmes’ new habit of rolling up her jeans 3rd grade-style while walking around Manhattan. Although I assumed bad taste was the reason for the odd cuff, Katie’s stylist claimed there’s a method behind the madness: she’s wearing husband Tom Cruise’s pants, which are actually too short for her tall frame.

The couple’s stylist Jeanne Yang confirms to Usmagazine.com that they are Cruise’s Prps Jeans.

“Prps has adapted the style for women in the new fall collection as the Boyfriend jean,” Kim Dillard, a rep for Prps Jeans, tells Us.

The 29-year-old actress – who makes her Broadway debut next month in Arthur Miller’s All My Sons – has been rocking the style when arriving for rehearsals and playing with 2-year-old daughter Suri.

“It’s the new look Katie is going for,” a source tells Us.

A reason Holmes has been rolling them up? She’s 5′9″ and Cruise is 5′7″.

I’m not sure why Katie can’t just get her own jeans.
