Phone Sears and ask them to send shorter jeans to your local store.

An observation that I thought interesting-  We live in NJ.  It is easy 
to find inseam lengths for men that are 36 inches.  VERY difficult to 
find 28 or 30 inch inseams.  Years ago, we took a vacation to Hawaii.  
We stopped by the Alamoana Mall's Sears store.  Lo and behold- LOTS of 
28 inseam men's pants!  My husband says it's time to go back!  He needs 
more 28 inseam pants.

We think that many of the Oriental men are short, so Sears stocks 
inseams that they can actually SELL to their clients.  WHat do you 
think?
