Thanks Happy Hippy,

I have looked on Ebay but as being little is a lifetime affliction (for want of a better description :roflanim:) I do like to try things on first!

Have you checked Go Outdoors?  I bought my son a good pair for £20.

depends how likely you are to trash them, there is a company called Halkon Hunt they do made to measure waterproofs they are the very best they will last 10 years or more unless you do something silly in them, they are about £300 a set though, you literally pic the spec and they make to order...

Try these:http://www.kiwikit.co.uk/categories/Kiwikit-%7B47%7D-Oringi-Waterproof--%26-Work-Clothing/


I'm 5'4" and a small in the waterproof trousers fits me perfectly.  And they do XS and even XXS.
