Hi guys, I wanna know how tall are you and how long is your inseam from croch to the ground(not your pant inseam as it varies depending on the type of pants that you wear). It doesn't matter if you've done the surgery already or not, just type down your stats as they are now not before the surgery.

Also, what do you think is the ideal percentage of your inseam in relation to your height, 46, 47, 48, . . . ? Thanks guys  Height and inseam

I am 5'6" and my measurement from crotch to floor is 30.5 inches.

The ratio is about 46%.  I don't know what the ideal ratio should be because I usually considered only the sitting height to total height ratio.  But 50% after LL for me seems like it would be good.

Thank you for your input Blackhawk.

My inseam is about 46% as well and I do agree that 50% is ideal, but in my case to achieve that percentage I would have to lengthen 5inches, at that point my height would be 4 inches greater than my armspan wich is just not a good look IMO.

Mine is also around 46%. Currently, I haven't had LL yet. I hope to have 48% or 49% after LL.

I wonder if people find some basketball players disproportionate with their wingspan being greater than height for more than 8 inches .
Height and inseam
Or I guess it still follows the rule 'the biggest the best'.

I dont, long arms look good but short arms do not. Same thing with big heads, they dont necessarily look better, but I would much rather have bigger had like ryan gooslin then a smaller one, but thats just one example.

He has a big head?

Heads are proportionate to height by the way, you don't want a big one being 170cm tall, you'll look like a kid. Your comparison is invalid anyway.

Of course long arms look better than short arms. Unless you enjoy looking like a T-Rex.
