Are they making jeans longer because some like wearing heels w/them? When I was younger, heels w/jeans was a hootchie fashion trend. ;-) Liked big hair, lee-press on nails, and frosted eye shadow.

I have to admit that I'm glad the inseams on the petite jeans are longer because it's hard for me to find regular jeans that fit. I'm 5'5" but small boned, so my frame is petite but my height is not. Sorry Crankin! I'm sure the trend will reverse itself as people rediscover flat shoes.
