What type of jeans look best on petite frames?

High-rise, slim or straight-leg jeans can be a great fit for petite women. Levi’s® offers some of our most popular styles of jeans crafted specifically for petite women with shorter inseam options. Look for petite inseams of our classic 501® jeans, 311 Shaping Skinny jeans, our curve-boosting Wedgie, and more.

What height are petite jeans for?

Levi’s® petite jeans are specially designed for women 5'4'' and under. We also recommend petite jeans if you have proportionally shorter legs and want a shorter inseam.

Are short jeans the same as petite?

No, short and petite are not the same thing. “Short” only refers to the leg length whereas “petite” takes into account all proportions—inseam, knee height, hip width and rise—into account. If you buy short jeans, but need a petite size, the fit may feel off. This is because the rise might not hit right or the knee break could fall in a weird spot.

Does Levi's® have petite sizes?

Yes, Levi’s® offers a range of jeans specifically made for petite women. From our iconic 501® jeans to the super-flattering Wedgie jeans, we take great care in tailoring fits that look stunning on women 5'4'' and under. You won’t have to worry about rolling up hems or fixing awkward waistlines with Levi’s® petite jeans.
