I've been told that I am 'leggy' - according to the fitting sheet from my first LBS I have an inseam of 78cm. I am 5' 3.5"

They sound a might short for me. I guess I'll pass. Good luck.

Thanks for checking though. I do remember being surprised that they didn't go down a little further, just another 2 inches would have been great. Originally Posted by MDHillSlug

These are knickers, not tights after all. I am shorter so they come well below the knee for me, but do look like the image in the provided link. PI doesn't seem to have a link for these particular knickers. Sorry for any confusion!

No, they have little small round grippers on the legs. Someone said in another thread that knickers are just like long shorts, they have no insulation. These however do have a soft fleecy-like lining at the waist, have a drawstring, and the inside of the legs appear to have a lining similar to the waist but much lighter - they are still soft though.
