Whether you wear leggings to work out or just to lounge around the house, you want to have a good fit. Most leggings are inches too long on petite women, forcing us to roll them up or bunch them (and who thinks that looks cute?) The good news is that more and more brands are creating leggings in cropped styles, 7/8 inseams, and “short” or “petite” labels. Find the petite leggings that are right for you with the options below.
