Crankin and other smaller and shorter ladies...aside from the "used clothing store" (which is where I get most of my clothes), I pretty much only go to Ann Taylor these days (not Loft, just regular old Ann Taylor). Not that I could wear them, but they carry all the way down to 00P, but they aren't teeny bopper clothes. I recently got 2 pairs of decent, not super fancy, but decent pants for work and they have a 28.5-inch inseam. They also carry some styles in "curvy" (smaller waist and bigger legs) as well as "regular" fit. Good for those of us with legs that are big in proportion to the rest of us.

Crankin, you and I can have our own little rant about clothing for smaller people. And I'm not that small. I always wonder what how the really small people must feel! I guess that's why my 4'10" Gramma always made all of her clothes.

Most other stores in the geographically limited area that I can tolerate for shopping won't carry small sizes in the store, so I don't even bother. I wish the Eddie Bauer store did. You can order small stuff from in the catalog, but I hate doing that (well, I hate always having to pay for return shipping).

As for athletic clothing (the original subject of this thread), I second/third/whateverweareupto the Sporthill stuff. I also have several pairs of Hind Munich pants I got long ago...I'm not sure if they make them any more.
