I'm 'average height', and I often have to hem. Drives me nuts. I think a lot of jeans and pants manufacturers have taken to making their lengths standard for tall people, so everyone else has to hem. I know Dress Barn has this problem. And yes, I consider it a problem. They're lazy and won't produce three lengths. Instead, they produce one and expect at least 2/3 of the rest of the population to hem. Hmph.
