It depends on the angle of the bow.

It depends on the angle of the bow.

My legs are super short. They are 28 inches. I think part of it is a bow legged stance. Probably an inch anyways or half an inch. Mine bow outwards and then back in at the ankle.

This is why for me adding 6 inches to them for a size 34 is not unreasonable.

You'll probably gain 1/2" max. You can only correct it with external divices if I'm not mistaken.
