Pants with short inseams

Any recs on pants with short inseams? I have a 26 inch inseam so it’s hard to find pants that aren’t meant to look cropped on a taller person. Also, don’t tell me to just get my pants tailored.

Are you looking for full length or a cropped look on a 26" inseam?

wdym by "get my pants tailored"? do you mean "don't tell me to get pants custom-made" or "I want them to fit off the rack"?

Full length! For example I have gramicci climbing pants that are cropped on me but they’re just supposed to be long shorts for a normal sized person, that’s exactly what I don’t want I’ve already got a bunch of stuff saved by them 🙂

Better phrasing would have been “don’t tell me to get my pants hemmed”

there is a simple, $10-15 solution that you can do at your local dry cleaner or tailor to make any pants with >26" inseam into a 26" inseam this exact thing has been asked before on r/MFA and I've yet to hear a good reason not to just get pants hemmed

Never said I was starving. Maybe only a little hungry. I asked for something specific and instead you went out of your way to be rude and input your opinion.

I always get my pants hemmed. I'm a ~30" inseam, which is already on the short side, and usually if I get 30", the legs are a bit long.

If I get 30 inch pants hemmed to 24-25 inch inseam it ruins the design of the pants and I like to keep the original hem or whatever it’s called
jfarrell468
jfarrell46816mo ago
yeah, you might have a point that this is a lot of material to remove, and the fit/cut might start to be affected. I buy 32" inseam and get them hemmed, and it's fine.

you don't want to get pants hemmed? have you tried getting shorts extended?
jfarrell468
jfarrell46816mo ago
But, on the other hand, some pants only come in one length -- "too long" -- and they are intended to be hemmed.

I don't know your waist size... But maybe the kids section? I honestly haven't come across anywhere that does shorter than a 28" inseam Aside from cropped trousers... Which you said you weren't after
jfarrell468
jfarrell46816mo ago
I don't see the aesthetic point of keeping the "original hem". I've never noticed a difference in appearance. It's not hard for a tailor to match the thread and style of the original hem.
bustin_janks
bustin_janks16mo ago
this is true, the only reason i would see for wanting to keep the original hem is with washed denim - and even with that, there's a workaround for keeping it
jfarrell468
jfarrell46816mo ago
Agreed. 26" inseams seem like they are going to be very hard to find, no matter what.
bustin_janks
bustin_janks16mo ago
oh, i think document does have some in that range
jfarrell468
jfarrell46816mo ago
Admittedly, getting pants hemmed is an annoying extra step. I bought some jeans recently and the store hemmed them while I waited, so I am now spoiled and want every store to do that.

imbadatusernames16mo ago
Yeah like hemming bootcut jeans would just ruin it Extendo shorts I was a weight lifter for around 9-10 years so I do not fit in kids clothes 😭 I had some women’s moschino pants that fit perfectly but grad school weight kicked in. Beams right now is going to be my go to when I hit my weight loss goal

I think Alex mill has some pants with some pretty short inseams too, but more like 27-28 Conversely, learn to hem your pants

Don’t hem your pants Leave them really long It looks cool Tbh hemming will only “ruin the design of the pants” on a very small subset of pants. Is there a specific cut you’re looking for here

Agree with blue eyes that while there are pants that shouldn’t be hemmed, the vast majority are unaffected and you’d be better off searching based on the other factors that aren’t as easy to change You can ask for alternatives to a specific thing if you find something you like that doesn’t come in a short inseam and shouldn’t be hemmed

Straight leg pants are made with everyone’s height in mind (if they are brave enough to hem them)

its not worth buying mid pants meant for short people instead of good pants hemmed

I thought @upsett1_spaghett1 was like 6ft so that should tell you how good hemmed pants can look

U can get Needles HDs, Evan Kinori Elastic Pants, or 7115 by Szeki. That stuff looks better on people who are not tall tbh

I read the first sentence and immediately though, get your pants hemmed at a tailor. But I am not reading 70 comments about why that's not a workable solution Mostly because it is in fact a workable solution.
