have you checked the bitofbritain.com site for lendes? they seem to come as small as X by X (where X is calf width), and have an elastic panel to fit better. bitofbritain.com is also very nice about returns; i've sometimes bought two of something from there in different sizes and returned whatever didn't fit (one or both). i think that's where i got the nunn finer ones (which they don't seem to have anymore), but my gf (who is even shorter than i am and quite a bit heavier) has what i think are lendes. (i can ask, maybe they're tredsteps :) for $140 you can also get custom-made half chaps from www.customchap.com (i now want ones with a star on them, for stjarni). i admit the purple ones were a bit of luck. my trainer (whose colors are gold and purple) was green with envy ;) --vicka
