Where do the short ladies in the UK find sweatpants/tracksuit bottoms/etc? I'm not quiet at the leggings stage yet ;) My trousers usually are 3/4 or those with elastic at the bottom.

    i usually just cut them..always way too long (I'm 5.1'). Or buy 3/4. Sometimes I buy children ones too!

    Unfortunately I can't fit in children's clothes. Why don't stores do different lengths like they do with jeans and smart trousers!

    I have a 29" inside leg and while not terribly short it can make standard lengths annoying (I'm often barefoot or barefoot minimal shoes). I recently went to BonMarche with my mother and noticed they do a 27" and 25" leg. With any luck that might be helpful here is a link to their on line store. http://www.bonmarche.co.uk/

    Lands End are pricey but usually have different leg lengths.

    Thanks I have a shop across from me :) can't see length size on their site though.
