    Does anyone know where I would be able to pick up some full length leggings for running/gym that are made for short girls like myself. Have a 27 inch inside leg length. Have tried the sports shops and everything seems to be too long :( Anyone know where they can get sports type leggings in a petite length either online or in shops?

    Aldi have some running gear in at the moment - it might be worth a try?

    M&S might have something, I've gotten some great sports gear from them in the past few years. I have longer legs than you so I can't say I know anything about petite ranges, but afaik they have a pretty good selection of lengths.

    If there is a Heaton's near you try their Sports World shop. I found some in there that had a short length & they had them in a wide leg version too...the brand is USA Pro!! Nike are the only other brand that tend to do a shorter version in their range. I am also not tall & get so annoyed at sports brands who seem to think all women are over 5'6!! makes it so hard to find tracksuit bottoms etc to fit! I've started to wear the legging type now when working out, as its easier to get them to fit!

    I saw in the kids section in Dunnes they do proper sports gear now, they have leggings, they do pretty big sizes up to kids about age 14, so might fit you, but be short enough?

    I have bought kids tracksuit bottoms!! I get the biggest kids size, which is about age 12-14 and they fit me in length! my husband thinks its hilarious, but I don't have much choice sometimes!

    Sweaty Betty does a short version of some of their running leggings. I know you're buying online from the UK, but they have a clear measurements chart which shows exactly what 'short' means, which is useful!
