Petite size real leather leggings

I’m looking to treat myself for my upcoming 40th and would love some real black leather leggings...
None of the places I’ve looked at seem to do real ones in petite sizes, only faux...
Does anyone know if somewhere or do I need to buy them in regular length and chop them off?

Honestly, real leather leggings are nowhere near as good as faux ones IMO

I bought a £££ pair from Reiss (having tried on about a million other pairs) and find them too baggy around the ankle and just not stretchy enough in any direction.

Save your money, go faux.

Thanks! I might have to...

I second this! The spanx leather leggings are good as are the very cheap ASOS ones. And I never get sweaty in them. I'm petite too and couldn't find leather ones that fit right.

FWIW, coated skinnies/leggings (ones that have a seam down the outside leg) are way more flattering.

The straight line of the seam elongates and slims the leg...

Thanks for the help... I’ll look into those!
