I am short-waisted and a lot of tops are too long-I don't want them to go over my hips. What is the length of this shirt like, based on such a need?

It measures 25 inches from the shoulder seam to the bottom of the hem. It strikes me at the pelvic bone but I am somewhat long-waisted and short-legged. I usually tuck it in, however, so the length hasn't been an issue for me.

This shirt is a great length - not too long at all. I have a similar build and I am pleased with where the shirt falls as it does not go over my hips.

I am a 33 waist and the medium fits.But the bigger problem for me was the length. They really don't give good hamstring coverage. Hope that helps

I am tall with 40 in.waist, weigh much more than you, and the medium fits very well. However, due to my height I may have a longer waist, which means my hips are further away from the smallest part of my waist, so don't know if that makes a difference.

Sort of adjustable, pending where you want the poof to start. I think if you wore it as intended, with the waist band at your waist, it's long long. I'm 5'9" and it could be made floor length for me. I wore if for a costume and pulled the flat banded bit at the top all the way up to under my bra and it hit me about upper ankle.

Actually I'm 5'2" and my husband 5'8" Since I don't know how long your torso is, I don't know what to recommend. I guess you could always send it back if it isn't long enough.

The length is there, but as with all compression shirts it wants to compress on itself too, so it will ride up on you a bit. The pockets are pretty high up under the arm. If you have any kind of lat & tricep muscles, that forces your arm out over the pistol & makes it look like you're packing. Not so concealed. I gave mine away

It is adjustable, and should be long enough for your stature. Hope this helps.

I love this shirt! I got it because it is very fitted - a different style than most Columbia shirts. I am 5'5" and 145 lbs. I bought a Medium because I like the fitted look. I have worn a sleeveless Tee underneath. the shirt is also cut up slightly at the sides, with a bit longer tail and front, not the style generally tied at the waist. If you definitely want to wear the shirt that way, I would recommend the Larger size. Hope this helps!

It fits my husband who has a 33" waist. I think it will expand beyond that as well. I am quite petite and it will not cinch around my waist but rather falls over my hips at its tightest.

I'm 5'9" and across the body feels awkward as it does feel short. I actually thread it though the loops in my pants and it hangs closer to my hips.

I too own this and love it. It best fits 15-17. I know the seller states the size is measured to the bottom of hip belt but I disagree. Best measurement is from strap to MID hipbelt which is 16- 16 1/2 so this should be perfect for you. You want the hip belt on your hips- not mid waist which is what would happen for those with torso lengths longer than 17" or so.

I would say it's high cut over the hips. I would go a size up if you want more fabric there.

I am the same size! I bought a medium for versatility - there are times where you will want to wear this under your clothing, and times where you may want to wear it over your clothing. I hope this helps!

I'm 5'9", 185. I have a L and its very snug around the chest/shoulders but length is is perfect. You will need something longer- I went to O'neils website chart to confirm my size

My dad is 6 ft 175 and it appears to fit him well. I think it will fit his hips. But be short.

Hi, I am also short, I am 5' 6" and 30 waist in US. The short fit good, I thought the front lid/tongue was a bit bulky. All in all the short is very comfortable. I hope I helped you.

Interesting question, I guess it depends on what size you order. I ordered a XL and it extends approx. 2.5 inches below my waist.
