Please could you tell me where you get your work gear from?

I've been getting my trousers and waterproofs from mountain warehouse, but since they're designed for walking and not heavy gardening they don't last. Affordable work gear for short women just doesn't seem to exist!

Dickies do some good women's work clothes but only for average height. I'm at the end of me tether now and in desperate need of some pointers.

I'm 5'1" and wear Dickies eisenhower trousers in winter - but the mens not the womens range. For some reason their womens clothes are designed for giants, whereas the small mens ones are much more sensibly sized.

Summer time I used to wear Craghopper kiwi trousers but my ancient pairs finally have worn out & not keen on the new styles. Have just bought a couple of pairs of Kuhl splash roll up trousers which seem pretty sturdy (but I needed the short leg length).
Waterproofs I just get cheap from the farmers' co-op and then replace.

Thanks for replying. I hadn't considered getting mens trousers as I assumed they'd be bigger than the womens. I'll have another look at the range.
