Finally found several pairs of short ski pants in Lockwoods in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire.

Only brands I could find with short length pants were: Schoffel + Protest. Decathlon have some cheap pants at £25 which come in 2 lengths (under 1.8mt and over 1.8mt) but they're actually more like reg and long. Also a place in Gloucester that does a 27" leg but was sorted by then so didn't pursue.

I've booked skis with Olivier sports for 4 people for later this month in Alpe d'Huez.

I spent some time going through all the different hirers before settling for the Sport 2000 / Olivier shop.

It's true that you ought to consider how close the hire shop is to your hotel / chalet (ADH doesn't apparently have many ski lockers on/near the slopes)but it's not essential.

One thing I found with some of the shops - and Skiset may have been one of them - the information on the location of the shops and resort accomodation wasn't always reliable/accurate. The last thing you want is to get there THINKING the shop is near your accomodation when actually it's 5 mins away... in the wrong direction!

The clincher was that the price was the best in resort
and the website was fairly easy to use too and in English.

Hope this helps.
I've been shopping for a new pair of ski pants and EVERYTHING seems to be in regular length - about 31inches inseam.

Does anyone know of a shorter length pant / salopette?
