Go on guys... I recall somewhere in the midst that there's a rule for working out which length you need, but I can't for the life of me remember it!

Or, alternatively, I'm 5'6 with a 30" inside leg. Which size do I need? :P
 
No idea about any rule as to a degree it will depend on how long you ride :p
Anyway, I'm 5'6 with 32" inside leg and 54" leathers suit me for most things.
 
54" I'm 5'6" with a 32" inside leg and I use 54". Typically I have black 54" leathers which I use to ride my pony in his brown saddle. My husband rides our 16hh boy in his black saddle with brown 60" stirrups. I must buy some colour-coordinated ones after Crimbo.... :o

(If I ride the big lad, I'm in the holes at the very top of the 60" stirrups)
 
Ooh thread hijack sorry.... I have been wondering the same! I am 5'10 but don't think I have a massive inside leg, probably 32" as 34" trousers are too long, so do you guys think 54 would be OK?
