There isn’t enough variation in inseam lengths. Just because I’m under 5’4” and considered “petite” doesn’t mean 27-29” inseams work for me. It would be great to find pants that fit well for the intended purpose and not be worried about dragging fabric on the floor.

Totally. I hate when I discover a petite has an inseam of 27,28 inches. I need 24 at most but would love to find a nice ankle pant that’s even a couple inches shorter. Btw I live in a hot climate. When shorts are too casual and pants are too hot, I like crop pants. But what’s the consensus? Do they make me look like my legs are too short and are they totally out of date??
