Your shirt should go about two inches past your waistband (or the bottom of your belt), and it should end right around mid-fly. If it goes all the way to the bottom of your fly, it's too long and will make you look shorter.
Welcome to city-data. Glad to see you here ringing in on such an important topic.
I like long t-shirts because I can tuck them into my shorts/pants and don't have to worry about my crack showing when I bend over.
It's bad enough that T's are made w/such inferior material but WHY are they making them so long? I'm a petite person and hold one up and it pretty much hits tunic/mid thigh length - WHY?
I'm 6'4". I don't understand why they make t-shirts so short. And some of the x-larges are made for someone who is at least 100 lbs. heavier than me.
LOL, I'm only 5'4" and I still think the tees are too short - and that is buying them at Kohl's. Just bought 2 more from there that I thought were the exact same as what I had been wearing from years past, but they are a good 2" shorter. I want mine to hit around the bottom of my zipper when wearing fitted jeans, but I don't want to have to wear a tent to get them that long (don't want it too tight either, though).

My husband has better luck with extra-tall sizes. He found regular XL too baggy as well. Some stores sell them in-store, but often it's easier to get them online.

I don't find that t-shirts are any longer now than they've ever been. It varies from t-shirt to t-shirt, just like decades ago.
Since you're petite, you may have to buy a "P" petite size, which would be shorter. Although I doubt many casual shirts come in petite, I guess. They're too inexpensive to have varying sizes like that that may not be big sellers.
