I think that designers should offer adjustable-hem pants that allow women to adjust the length of their pants according to the height of their shoes.
For my last job, I commuted into the city every day and would change my shoes once I arrived at my office. What frustrated me was that I would buy my dress pants long so that they were an appropriate length with heels, but this meant that they were a few inches too long if I wore flats. During the commute, I would try to wear flats and cuff my pants, but the cuffs never stayed and I found myself walking on my pants. While waiting for the train, I noticed some women had come up with their own remedies for the problem. One commuter in particular held the pant cuffs in place with several large binder clips. Adjustable-hem pants would offer a better solution.

Great idea! I need those even for walking to school.
This is great! Maybe snaps or buttons on the inside of the pant that would make it easy to adjust the pant to a shorter length would work...
