Ladies bike pants - help, where do I get some long enough?

[Paper Wings]

Hi, I'm currently on the hunt for some bike pants. The problem is I'm quite tall and most I've had a look for only have lengths that may be suitable in large sizes. <_<
So, does anyone some of some long length ladies pants available? Oh, and I'm a student so it can't be too expensive haha.
OR, if anyone has any they want to sell, pleeease let me know :D

You're in Auckland - go and see Kerrie at MSW:

She can custom-make you a pair of pants at a reasonable price. The fit and style will be perfect for you - no compromise.

What he said. You can often sneak a park out the back too, check Google Maps before you go.

Looks like the cheapest they make them for is $550 and I don't have that kind of money for pants at the moment.:(
I'm getting my first bike on Tuesday, so I really need to see if I like riding first (I'm sure I will).
I was hoping to get some pants for $200 or less.

I should also say that I'm a size 10 or small 12 and I need around a 32/33" inside leg length.
It's annoying cause I'm not thaaat tall but quite a bit taller than the average girl.

I was more hoping for someone to point me in the right direction of pants they know to be a bit longer.
Otherwise I'm probably going to have try quite a few on...
Or there's always men's pants haha

If you are after budget leather pants, check out CNELL:
http://www.trademe.co.nz/stores/cnell-bikers-gear/contact

There leather pants are sold with the leg length un-trimmed. So you buy the size your interested in, and then cut the end of the leather legs down to the size you want. Should be perfect for you.

Being pants I suggest you visit them to try them on for size. Note that they are mostly a warehouse business - so there is no "flash" retail bit.

Haha, whoops. Good point. BUT THEY SHOULDNT BE IN THIS SECTION OF THE FORUM. I was asking the girls. :bleh:
In saying that, I do want any valuable input. haha

Hi, I have some size 38 (small men's, maybe) laced down the side seams, and they measure 33" inside leg. They would be a 14 a 16 woman's size and possibly too big for you. A belt might help?!! You are welcome to come up to Gulf Hbr and try them on. I need stretch! too old, too fat. Would like about $200, cheers.

Thanks, but I think they'll be too big. I'll let you know if I can't find any though.

In Onehunga theres an army surplus and leather shop. They have stacks of leather pants under 200. Its on the main street next to the video shop I think at the top roundabout.

Geez the curse of bein a chick with long legs. Poor you. Kidding.
Most girls on bikes are moaning the cant reach the ground on there bikes.

Anyway i think ixon do some nice looking pants for chicks with adjustable leg lengths so you would think they must be long to start with.

Haha, yes i don't think I'll have an issue with that :bleh:
Thank you so much for the advice! I just bought myself some and the length is perfect.
It's such a good idea having snap buttons to adjust the length!
It was a little difficult finding the right size, which must mean they are end of line. So I got in just in time :)

You can adjust the legs but they never fit perfectly. I have short legs and I found the knee armour was too low for me, so I guess it works the other way for tall people. Most pants have a 32 inside leg and it is about 2 inches too long for me when standing but perfect when on the bike.
