If you're worried about standard inseams being too long, take your jeans to tailor and get them hemmed.

I have the same problem. All of my jeans have to be hemmed. I have a pair of APC NS that I really like the fit of. I also just got a few pairs of 5EPs that I need hemmed before I can really wear but I like the denim so far. They are higher in the rise than my APC's and looser in the hip/upper thigh. Good luck!
