My Wife is a 32 waist, 37 hip, and 25-26 inside leg... but we can't find anything that will fit her?

This size on the top end only comes in a 30 inch inside leg which is mad. My wife is quite slim and maybe she does have shorter legs LOL but we can't find anything close thats not too long or too baggy

Anyone any thoughts (on what to buy before you start) ;)

cheers
 
Their used to be a specialist ladies bike clothes shop called something like girlsbike2 in Hitchin Hertfordshire, both on line and they had a physical shop. They were really helpful for my wife.
 
It is not easy to get short ladies trousers ( most manufacturers think 33 inch inseam is short!)
Take a look at ladybiker.co.uk there might be something there.
The other alternative is that some retailers will shorten them - Halvarssons sometimes do this but I think they do an extra short size too.
 
My wife has the same issue and we couldn't find anything shorter than a 29" inseam.

Ladybiker didn't have anything either.

If you find a supplier pls pop me a pm.

Will probably end up having to make do with alterations or custom made at somewhere like Hide Out.
 
Have you checked out any KLIM gear? they dont seem (no pun intended) to have long in-seams (in the male line at least). I recently sold a pair of old badlands pants these were a large male (36" waist) and I believe regular length (no marking to indicate they were short) and these had a 30" inseam (measured ) . Not cheap but if sized ok they should last a good while (subject to body sizing adjustments due to aging-mine shrunk for some reason) .

Short Ladies Klim pants are 28” - shorter than most, but still not very short.
 
Have a chat with Motolegends and see what they have. Rokker Revolutions could be a solution as they come in all sizes and Motolegends can adjust them (for free) to make them shorter or move the armour pockets. Totally waterproof but she'd need a pair of leggings underneath on cold days.

Sadly, it's a bit of a hike from Bradford to go and try stuff on there.
 
My wife has a pair of Armr-Moto Kira 2 waterproof trousers in a size 8 with a 27” inseam.
They can be yours for £50.
Let me know if you would like them.
 
Given the username of the OP and the thread title, I must confess to being a bit disappointed in the content.
 
Cheers guy's.. will tie up with Mrs Beaver tonight :yelrotflm and see where we go.. I'll come back to you on the offer.. can you send us a bit more info / pic's?

Many thanks :)
 
Hi SuperTed

Have consulted with the Boss, but an 8 won't work. Thats what she has now but 8's have become smaller over the years (or so she tells me) and will no longer fit :yelrotflm

thanks for the offer anyway :)
