    Question How long is the inside of your leg?

    Mine is 70cm and I am 167cm tall (last time I checked) without shoes. For imperial folks, that is 2'3" long and 5'5" tall (rounded).

    I'm supposed to be slightly above average for today's female height so why do they make pants with an inside seam length of 82cm??? That's another 12 cm of leg length! Do they assume that all women are all leg and nothing else??

    I'd be interested to know how many people would have an inside leg measurement of 82cm and still be of "average height" (around 163cm according to the Australian in an article I read). Maybe I'm just abnormally short legged compared to my height and it just sucks to be me when it comes to clothes off the rack.

    It does also mean that the pants I ordered which fit perfectly everywhere else will have to go back. Cargo pants don't exactly look right when the thigh pocket sits somewhere around my calf.

    I refuse to believe that I'm below average.
    I am beautiful inside and out so I should love myself unconditionally.

    I'm 178cm... did you still want my inside leg measurement? Because it's the length of the outside of my leg minus the whole hip scenario.

    Yes!

    I want to see if there is a mathematical relationship between the two to prove a point to Ezibuy that they need to introduce short, regular and long lengths for their pants. Of course there is a huge flaw in that it would be a study of what n=5 so probably not a sufficient sample pool.

    Gosh, that would of been a site. Me trying to measure my leg with a steel builders tape, with my skirt hiked up around my hips....thank goodness no one walked in

    Well my legs are 82cm (maybe 83) long as well. I am around 178cm tall.

    I have long legs, not average

    I can only imagine what your DH might have been thinking if he saw you doing that.
