Brands selling trousers for short legs?

5 replies

Does anyone know brands\shops that sell their trousers (not jeans) with an option for short leg length? (My legs are rather short despite me being 5'6.)
The only ones I've found are Mint Velvet and M&S and fancy a few more options.
Obviously I can buy regular and get them altered but easier time/money wise if fit straight off.
Thanks

Boden's petite
Seasalt

There are other brands that do petite but I find quality to be extremely low, like Miss Selfridge, Debenhams, Wallis, Dorothy Perkins, Only, Asos...

Lovall and Next.

I've concluded it's easier to alter trousers than hunt for short fitting but I guess it depends what you are looking for. Gap used to do a good range.
Trousers with a normal hem are very easy to shorten with a sewing machine to neaten the edge and then hand sewing the hem.

Agree Seasalt. Esprit sometimes to do them. I need at most a 28 inch leg (I’ll buy 28/28) but usually a 27 inch fits best. Gap.

I buy cropped jeans and then they are full length on me. Mango do some slim cropped and I think some cropped flares. Skinnies you can turn under.

I got some Gap girlfriend jeans which were actually too short in petite, half way up my calf so I got the full length.
