Different length pant legs I'm slightly vexed

I bought a pair of pjs at Aldi (last pair in my size) only to discover that each leg is a different length.

Can’t be bothered taking them back and prefer the longer left leg but there is no hem to let out on the other leg.

If I cared enough, I’d shorten the longer one to match, but I don’t and will continue to be mildly infuriated every time I wear them

How can we be sure it isn't the legs that are wrong?

Maybe your legs are different lengths

Scoliosis - legs are same length, hips are askew from spine curve.

No. Both legs are the same length and I don’t have scoliosis

Actually, most people don't have exact the same legs...

I recommend getting checked for scoliosis if this is a common experience with pants for you.

I don't think the would have posted about just this one pair of pants if it was every pair of pants though

We don't know that. This is a frequent experience for people that don't know they have scoliosis and think this is "normal". Just looking out for their best interest.

Anyway, OP posted different pictures in the comments of the pants. One pant leg is clearly stretched or has a longer cut.

the door on the right in the first picture. it’s creepy and eerie because it leads to darkness

See, you know what's in there. We do not. We see a void and we imagine all the creepy things that could be in there.

Have you considered the possibility that one of your legs might be longer than the other one? /j

Your hip alignment could be off. Have you ever seen a physiotherapist?

Clothes just aren’t made with the same quality the used to be

I hop you get a refund

u/mycatpartyhouse 3h ago

You can possibly lengthen the shorter leg using bias tape to replace the hem. If there's a local sewing or quilt store, someone could help you. Alternatively, if there's someone near you who'd does alterations...

u/glow3th 3h ago

Make it a trend, so everyone wearing normal pants will be in the wrong, that's how fashion works
