The Pinterest Long Pin size (1000×2100px)
Pinterest's standard pin is 1000x1500 at a 2:3 ratio, but the long pin at 1000x2100 stretches taller to claim more vertical real estate in the smart feed, and it is a favorite for infographics, step-by-step tutorials, and recipe cards. Because Pinterest is a vertical, scroll-driven platform, a taller pin occupies more screen as users flick past, which can lift visibility for content that genuinely benefits from the extra length.
The long pin works when it uses that height meaningfully: a numbered how-to, a before-and-after stack, a list, or an infographic that unfolds top to bottom rewards the format, while a single photo stretched to 1000x2100 just looks awkward. Pinterest may truncate extremely long pins in some views, so 2100 pixels is a practical sweet spot that stays tall without risking a hard cutoff, and the narrow 10:21 shape keeps the pin phone-friendly since most pinning happens on mobile.
Design for a small screen and a fast scroll: use a bold, legible headline near the top so the pin communicates before anyone taps, keep text large enough to read as a thumbnail, and add subtle branding so re-pins carry your identity. A clear vertical flow guides the eye down the length. Everything here resizes 100% in your browser with no upload and for free, so your graphics stay private on your device. Pinterest adjusts its pin display and recommended sizes over time, so verify the current spec before scheduling a batch of pins.
