Tall boots for short legs!

I’m looking for a pair of long riding boots and read the other thread about long-lasting brands with interest. My problem is that my calf height is too short even for the ‘short’ size. My calf height is 42cm and shoe size is 5.5 :(

Has anyone had the same issue and managed to find ones that fit?

so far I’ve tried on Ariat, Dublin and Eco7- all too long.

My daughter has the Rhinegold Extra short Luxus, not the best brand but they've lasted pretty well.

Second the Rhinegold Elite Luxus, come in a wide range of sizes width ways and a short version is available.

De Nero ones, their basic ones are about the same price as Ariat, come in six different widths and height - I’m in extra short height and extra slim calf (think they go XXS in height and calf sizes). Lovely soft leather and last if you use them just for riding (unlike my DS 🤔- glad he buys his own now!)

Thank you for the suggestions- very helpful!

I am 5ft tall and think my calf height is even shorter than 42cm, and have a pair of Mart Todd short fitting which are a great fit height wise.
