I am sooo frustrated. I can hardly ever find jeans that fit me. I'm 5'4", and always buy petite size jeans. But even petite is too long and they hang over my ankles. Does anybody else hace this problem?

Nope! I'm 5'8'' and everything is too short on me! :p I have a hard time finding jeans that are long enough but won't sag! A lot of pants are great length-wise but too wide for me! :o

I'm only 4 ft. 9. There is no such thing as jeans that fit me!!!! I always either roll them up to make cuffs or cut them off.

Long sleeved tops are another problem, always hang over my hands!

I'm thinking of starting my own clothing line and calling it "
Short and Shrimpy!
(just kidding):D

I am 5'3--5'4. Certain brands fit me really good but sometimes I have problems.

I'm 5' 4" and if I buy petite they're too short as I have long legs! I hate buying pants of any kind!

I am 4 foot 11, and have a big problem finding pants that fit. I wear skirts and dresses, and here lately since I have been a homebody, my sweats and pajamas.

Jeans? What are they? Oohh, those torture chamber things? Even when I was skinny, I had no butt, and a belly... and I never once found a pair of jeans the right length/size/fit. If they fit the waist, they sagged the butt, if they fit the butt, they made breathing impossible! LOL. I haven't had a pair of jeans on in at least 5 years.

Too funny! Same here, if they don't have an elastic waist or spandex forget it! :D And btw, just who do they make jeans for:confused:

I'm pretty short 5'1" so I can never find pants that fit me. I also prefer to wear mens pants since there is more variety of sizes, however usually the shortest inseam I can find is 30 which is too long and I have to cuff the bottom. On the rare occasion I'm able to find a 28 inseam (but usually only in dress pants) and those fit me nicely.

I'm only 5'1, and, I wear 34 inch inseam, I prefer for them to be dragging. :) If I cross my legs or sit indian style, I don't want to be able to see my socks. I'm weird!

I'm 5'6 1/2"
I wear a medium length.
I like the old 50 style straight leg pants.
(I wear comfortable Gloria Vanderbelt's stretch jeans) :)

I'm 5'6", and usually mediums do okay, never have a whole lot of trouble, so am lucky that way. My sister is 2 inches shorter, but alllll torso, so she has a hard time finding jeans, or pants that are the right length.

I am also 5'8 and find a hard time finding jeans that fit me because im only 13 and have to buy adult size 2,3, or 4's but 3's & 4's are usually too wide! If Im lucky... a 2 might fit me length wise!

I'm 5'1", it's almost impossible for me to find proper fitting clothes! They are either the perfect length but are too wide or they are the perfect width and way too long:rolleyes: I usually have about 2 feet of extra material when I buy jeans. I always have to hem them.

I'm 5' 6" and I don't usually have a problem with length. I tend to buy bootcut, ultra low-rise jeans, so maybe that's why?

I don't know my length in inches, I am 1m70cm tall. I always buy length 34, and I never have tochange the seam! Lucky me, hey;)

I am about 5'5", and the short length jeans here are still too long. I often shop in the kids/ boys department atleast lenght wise the pants fit better. :)

5,1
28, 32.

26 used to be very large, 32 was always long, but I could never find shorter, so I just shorten them. For a while, because of the fashion, I couldn't find jeans that would make me feel comfortable, but now they went back to classic models, which is very good :)
