I own the Carrot and have tried on the Effortless. I'm 5'2 and my inseam is 29", so the 28" Carrot work perfectly for me as full length pants without actually touching and dragging all over the ground. The full length Effortless are too long, and the cropped 26" are too short for me. It sounds like they would be an ideal length for you though, if that's your normal jeans inseam.

The Carrot taper a bit at the hem, which I kind of like, so that there's less potential to drag on the ground and get messy, but keep this in mind if a true straight leg is what you're after.

They come in and out of style like anything else... Cigarette pants in the 60s, capris in the 90s, they're always around in some way. I think it depends on your body/what flatters you. If they are a staple for YOU, it doesn't matter if they are in style necessarily. Like anything else, really. ex. No matter how "Mini" skirts and dresses become, I won't wear them because with my long torso my ass practically hangs out of them. It is uncomfortable and risky and I don't want my bare/underwear bottom on public anything. I'd never wear anything that wasn't at least just above the knee for my own feeling of security. And, it gives my silhouette the illusion that my legs are longer and waist shorter. That said I don't love ankle pants because they give me even shorter legs so, they aren't for me. Regardless of it being a trend or not. I need pants that are cinched and high waisted to my rib cage, wide leg, and pool around my shoes for the most flattering illusion for my personal body *been wearing pants like these for 15 years regardless of trends, even though they are "in" now. I wouldn't NEVER wear ankle pants like... maybe to the beach or something. But def not going to invest in them. If I found. pair that made me feel cute I'd probably get them, but I doubt they'd become a long lasting staple in my wardrobe. More on reddit.com
