+1 for rev-it. The wife had an asshole of a time finding pants that fit her. She's a shortass (not Kylie short but nearly) and I think they all come in a short leg option. I think they're still marginally long but nothing stupid. They're a good price too.
SPIDI do "robust" sizings designed to overcome Tank's problem (which I share).
That "robust" is a nice euphemism![]()
In the past the importer has apparently promised to import them but has failed to deliver. Having said that, I do understand that they have to order significant numbers and they don't want to get stuck with stock that doesn't move. Parhaps they underestimate the numbers of us fat bastards... Or even those of us that are just short for our weight.

Motoline and I'm pretty sure RJays do a 'stout' range...
Failing that (keep this to yourself of course) but try some in the womens line of pants some ranges have different 'fittings' for the ladies...

Check in the biker angels forum as there was a similar post there. I can't remember the name of the pants I have but they are men's ones and they are perfect in length for a shortie like me. Very comfortable too, got them from the Suzuki (I think) shop in Hamilton, under $200. Definitely waterproof too, got tested last weekend and not a drop of water got in.
Just found the post - it was for big arses but some of us have them and short legs too! http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=84780
Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!
The brand of bike pants I have at home is Neo "Mugello" can buy frome cycletreads or mt eden etc.. they are "short leg"
I have the Neo Mugello Short leg pants too, very comfy and have good padding in knees.
I am 175 cm and they fit well plus they are only about $200 brand new.
