“I don’t know when ‘ankle-length’ pants became the norm, because it happened so gradually and so thoroughly that I’m caught second-guessing whether I really did once own pants that actually reached my feet”

Photo: Madewell We are now well into my favorite quarter of the year , a time of largely perfect sleeping weather and better than average daytime weather . All the best holidays are here , and I still get that early school year sense that all things, including total self-reinvention, are possible. There is only one problem: my ankles are freaking freezing.

Here’s my main problem: I’m 5’11,” and most of that is leg. What is “ankle-length” to the average woman is capri-length to me, and I can’t live through more than one era in which capris are cool. I won’t do it. I don’t mind the idea of an ankle-length pant when weather permits, but in order for pants to be ankle-length on me, they need to be full-length on the average woman.

Lol this rant

I hope not.

Yes! it's getting old

Same

And why is every shirt cropped?

I’m cold

Things happen in and out of fashion you wouldn’t expect but they are there

As a 5'5, I don't understand why would a norm be something that makes my legs look shorter. How about proportion, one of the main principles of good style?

As a tall person I would like ankle pants to die a fiery death

As a short gal I don't mind ankle length pants cause they‘re full length on me but full length pants are a must have for cold winter days so I srsly hope they return soon

Wear what you want, no one cares as long as it’s cute! 👖

Cc tatertatiana relevant

We get it, you’re tall.

Can we stop now? My ankles are cold

I hope not because these are full length for me

I'm 5'1' so ankle pants are just pants on me. Anything else is a foot too long because apparently women are giants now.

These were once called high-waters

Even guys are wearing short pants now

soon plz 😂😭

It became a trend unintentionally and the majority accepted arms wide open

So. I like this, but it means I’ll always have to shave a tiny part of my legs. And, well, I liked full pants for the reprieve.

Link for shoes ?

Never 😅
