Capri pants question...

I don't know what the style is up there in NY but here it's been Capri's. Well, I wore them last summer when I was VERY PG and I loved them since I wasn't comfortable in shorts. Anyway, I bought a few pairs and now I think they're too long? Yesterday I was looking at the women who were wearing them and they all seemed much shorter than the one's I bought. I'm not sure if I need Petite length? It's suppose to be for women less than 5'4". I'm 5'4 3/4". Petite regular jeans are a little too short. The Capri's would need to be a couple of inches shorter. They're only a few inches from my ankle. What do you think? (Sorry for the stupid question! Chat Icon )

I have the same problem - Capri's are always too long on me. Sometimes they go all the way down to my ankle and I always think - what's the point? I should just wear jeans. I would maybe try the petite length if they carry it.

Re: Capri pants question...

I think you should try on petites. I know they say 5'4" is the cut off but some people have shorter legs and longer torsos. Regular capris always look too long on me so I buy petite.

I have seen capris in MANY different lengths. I own many pairs ranging from 1" below the knee to a few inches above my ankle - but I think those are called "cropped jeans".

you can always have them shortened at the tailor. I never let the length of jeans determine if I buy them or not. if they fit me great everywhere else, I can always get them shortened.

Depends on the pants. Some are capri's and some may be cropped pants. I have a few pairs that are below knee and at least 6 inches above the ankle. To me, wearing cropped pants is useless, it seems like your wearing pants that are just too short! Chat Icon
