Re: GIRLS: how long are your legs?
this is weird. im 6'2 and have really long legs (black genes at work). I wear 34-36 length. Girls who are a little shorter than me, I have longer legs than pretty much all of them. Even the very rare few that are remotely close to my height I have longer legs than them. I wonder how they size women's jeans. It seems really odd

Re: GIRLS: how long are your legs?I've grown (well, more like redistributed) since the last measuring - all of my old trousers were too short, so I got them remeasured and wound up at 29".(Original post by Tullia)
I'm assuming it is 29" and not 26"?

Re: GIRLS: how long are your legs?
I'm somewhere between 5'10" and 5'11 I think.
Genrally inside leg is about 36 - but some styles I can just about get away with a 34 (so in reality maybe 35). Interesting to read so many others have similar length legs - I find my long legs a nightmare at times! Pretty much all my jeans have come from Long Tall Sally (bit expensive) as I struggle to find jeans that fit my size/shape.
I'm not too sure of my size as I've been losing weight but last time I tried jeans on it depended on the shop and somewhere around 18/20.
Shops seem to assume that only short people come in larger sizes - the longer trousers in Evans come almost half way up my calves (well maybe not that extreme, but too silly to even think about buying). I also find that tall ranges generally have a narrow selection of clothes you can buy - e.g New Look does long jeans, but if you want long pjs you're a bit stuck!

wish i was more leggy! having short legs makes me feel stumpy in some clothes
