Berghuas Deluge come in all shapes and sizes. GF was able to get long womens cut. Unfortunately,Amazon are the best if a non-standard leg length.(Short,Reg,Long) They are much better than their price indicates, although not goretex, if that matters.

Yeah, that's fair for a bit of kit not that often used. Prices of outdoorsy kit have rocketed recently too, unfortunately.

Oddly, I take the opposite approach to cycling trousers - get the cheapest possible and treat as semi-disposable - when they get too worn at the seams and lose their proofness after a couple of years, lob them. Currently rocking some Aldi specials to work and back. A bit boil-in-the-bag. But keep me dry.
