I'm 5-5 and the length is just a bit short, and that's only because the waist is too short. Measuring from the crotch to the top of the waistband, it is only 9-3/4" and the front is about 1-1/2" shorter than the backside. On me, the waist stops at the middle of my butt. The material is stretchy and even if I get it up near my waist, after walking around it drops back down to mid-butt. It's embarrassing to have to pull it up every few steps, so now I just wear the waist band at the bottom of my butt. Sounds uncomfortable (it is a bit, but at least I'm not trying to pull it up every time). I wear it with a skort when I play golf since my legs are getting overtly tanned. I may eventually cut off the waist part and wear it like thigh-highs (with the crotch part intact so it can't fall down my legs when wearing a skort. The concept is great and I like the material. It's thin enough but durable, much more durable than pantyhose. They should make a size for taller people, especially the waist length.Love these pants/ pantyhose , wished they had more colors. I wear them for golf to protect my legs from the summer hot sun. I get sun rash when wearing sun block, with the sun pants I avoid the rash or any skin damage.
