Default Petite workout pants

Why is it impossible to find workout pants that don't drag on the ground or are too short? Do they think short people don't work out? I take an aerobics class and walk 2-3 times a week and either have pants that are to long or wear capris that on me are barely to my ankle so they look ridiculous! I just bought a pair that I'll have to hem....can you believe it? Anyone know where to get petite workout pants?

I always had the same problem but last year I found some at Target that come in different lengths as well as sizes, they have petite, average and long. I can't remember the brand off the top of my head but I'm sure you could find them there, they had a good selection of them. Last time I looked, 3 different styles in the different lengths.

I just had to resort to hemming pants up. As long as the bottoms are straight across, then it's not hard to turn them up a couple of inches.

I wear a lot of capri/crop pants or else sometimes I'll find petites. Like someone mentioned, Target has them (Champion brand I believe).

you can get them from JCPenny too. If you can't find them in the store look in the catalog or online

Old Navy has some however you have to order them online. Also, I found a couple of pairs at Marshalls recently but, that's a hit or miss store. Marshalls has tons of great pants for yoga that are typically very expensive so I just hem them. Also, I wear the workout capri pants. Target also carries some petite pants that are great, the brand is C9 i think, you can find them in store and on their site and I have to say these are good pants, they don't ride up, they wick away sweat, I've always liked them and they are no more than $30.
