Not really style or beauty, but... waterproof trousers?

Hello! I am in need of a pair of waterproof trousers as I have enrolled on a sailing course (what was I thinking?!!) Grin , but I cannot find any long enough. I need at least a 34" inside leg, but only a 28-30 waist. I have looked at men's trousers, but they only seems to start at a 32-34 waist, so would be too big.

Does anyone know where I might find a pair of women's waterproofs in a longer leg length? Also need to be reasonably priced as I have a lot of kit to buy!!

? I buy these for DS - he is man size but v slim.

the last pair I bought for him were from Sports Direct - and were about a tenner. Bargain.

They are prob for waist size 32 - but remember that you will have other trousers underneath - and that men's trousers don't allow the space for women's hips. They are often quiet elasticated waists - or you could alter them just so they stay up.

Thanks for the reply, Supernannyisace! Could you please let me know the brand you bought, or post a link please as I've had a look on the website (great website BTW!) and there are so many pairs I am now spoilt for choice! Grin

I think they were these I tend to always pick the cheapest Grin as they get ruined anyway - he used to sail a little bit too and they got destroyed.

I got him a medium - which states waist as 32-34". But as I said before you want them to fit your hips too.

Brilliant, they look just what I need! Smile
