The average Australian woman is 161.8 cm tall, however it is near impossible to find petite activewear.
Petite clothing is generally designed for women shorter than 5’4” / 164cm. However petite is not only about height — it's also body proportion. So while we suggest our petite range for women under 164cm tall, you may be taller and still find your legs benefit from petite sizing.
Finding petite leggings is particularly frustrating. Many women resort to wearing tights with a shorter inseam (e.g. ⅞ length tights) resulting in bagginess around the ankles, or they fold, roll or scrunch the excess fabric at the bottom of full length tights.
Regular sizing also leaves petite women with excessive fabric and height in the waistband and an incorrect fit through the legs.
We created our petite range to solve these frustrations that shorter women face when buying activewear.
Our top rated styles — Smart Pocket and Essential Tights — have been tailored to fit petite frames.
We’ve tweaked the design with a shorter rise and inseam to give you the fit you deserve.
