Amazon Is Filled with Petite Jeans That Don’t Need Hemming from $16

Whenever a store offers petite sizing, I can hardly contain the squeals of joy that escape me. As a 5-foot-2 shopper, it’s rare to find comfy jeans that don’t need to be cuffed at the ankles (and even then it doesn’t always look stylish). When the sizing is occasionally available, a rush of adrenaline courses through me and I greedily stock up. 

Now that I’m a shopping writer, I’ve taken it upon myself to hunt for petite clothing online to spare you the quest. And I recently found a motherload of small frame-friendly denim hidden within Amazon’s fashion store. Pretty much every fit you can think of is available, including flare jeans (a celeb-worn look), wide-leg pairs, skinny options, and more. Check below to shop my top picks starting $16.

Petite Jeans at Amazon

Lee Ultra Lux Comfort with Flex Motion Bootcut Jeans

These best-selling jeans have enough stretch to chase after the kids without worrying about splitting your pants. One reviewer called them their “conquer the world mom-jeans” and commended their stretchiness — especially with all the squatting they do. Another person added that the “flex waist is so comfortable it feels like [they’re] wearing leggings.”

Levi Strauss Signature Gold Curvy Totally Shaping Straight Jeans

We’ve previously tested these jeans in a skinny leg and love how curve-friendly the soft and stretchy material is. While the fabric has some give, it won’t sag, according to one shopper who wrote that the pants “hold their shape all day.” Plus, they come in a range of lengths, including petite, so you can find the right fit from first wear.

Gap Mid-Rise Favorite Jeggings

Gap is one of my favorite brands for basics because its clothing is always made of quality materials that are soft enough to be a blanket. These jeans caught my attention for their mid-rise fit that gives some coverage without feeling like it hits the top of your ribcage. One 5-foot-1 reviewer applauded the “rich” color that “adds a touch of elegance” to looks.
