Hi All

I'm looking for some new waterproof trousers. A lot dont come in different leg lengths. Whats the best pair out there in a short fitting (29\30 leg)?

Not sure about "the best", but these paclites are available in short leg. I've had a pair of Sprayway for a few years and find them effective.

My inside leg measurement is only 27" so I too have problems with over-trouisers with zips at the bottom. My solution was to either buy the shortest leg measurement available and then send back to the manufacturer for shortening. This worked with Sprayway. Alternatively you could go down the made to measure route with Cioch. I did and I'm extremely pleased with their trousers. Paramo also have an alterations service.

I have a pair of Berghaus Deluge which come in 3 length 's, i am a 28" shorty and get on fine with mine although they are 29" leg. You could get someone like LSR to shorten them for you, did a cracking job on my Mountain Equipment Karakorum trousers.
