As title. I'm struggling to find some that fit me and don't break the bank.

I would like high waisted but I have to be careful as some high waisted you can fit two fists down :( anyone want to send me a stone or two?
 
Kingsland are good and on sale with Hope Valley Saddlery for £45 a pair at the moment! :). Mostly just left in the smaller sizes too.

Tredstep are also v nice and on sale with HVS.
 
I just opt for childs!! Lol😂 they're the only thing that fits my 22in waist and all the way down my leg.. The only problem is the length, I'm 5ft7, but it's not that much of an issue with long boots!
 
I wear breeches as I have the same problem and jodhs are too long and baggy. I wear hy performance breeches, they are high waisted and slim legged. I only wear long boots or paddock boots and chaps so am fine for them to finish above my ankles as wear a pair of socks above and underneath them anyway.
 
I thought I posted a response I would try child's or Maids sizes. Most makes provide these so you should have a wide choice of style, colour and price.
 
I have the same problem! I don't buy adults ones though, childrens or maids ones fit me so much better - and are a lot cheaper!

For cheap, everyday ones, I really like Robinsons or Harry Hall (They do regular and long length) ones. They are about £15 and last for ages. For show ones, I tend to buy either John Whitaker, Mountain Horse or Caldene - all childrens ones too! :)
 
Plus you don't pay VAT on children's clothes either! My daughter swears by caldene four tech. She's a skinny size 8 standing about 5'5. (and an adult as she keeps reminding me...)
 
If you are near a decathlon try their children's jods. My 5'6" daughter (skinny size 8) fits in a child's age 14, more of a breech than a nod but at £10 a pair they are great value.
