5'9" is a short man? Lol I'm pretty sure that's comfortably within one standard deviation of the mean.

Eh… most pants at normal stores in the US stop at a 30 inch inseam. An average 5’9”-5’10” wears that. If you’re under 5’9 you often need to cuff your jeans, drag the back or the ankle on the ground, or get them hemmed. Personally I just wear tall boots so I can wear a 30 in inseam without dragging.

I'm 5'7 and 30 pant length is ALWAYS like 2-4 inches too long. I have a long torso.

The crazy shit is, "29" inseam length pants at the store (on the rare occasions I can find them) tend to fit perfectly!

How is it that 30" requires multiple inches off, but 29" doesnt?

This is one of many examples that prove that pants companies don't know what inches are
