My little woman and I have been searching for bdu's that are small in proportions for her.
She's 5'2" with no ass and the closest we've found are some Rothco woman's paratrooper pants in extra extra small. (she ordered herself the woodland extra small and they are slightly too large on her)
I'm wondering if there are any places we haven't checked yet with some better selections of clothing for small women. The main focus being on a small female sized crotch with the correct sizes in more modern patterns.
Also before you ask, no pics yet but maybe after Sunday's game.

Kid's BDU's maybe? But my guess is the legs wouldn't be long enough. Part of the problem is likely going to be that just like there isn't much demand for super huge sizes, there's not much for super small sizes either.
Other than that though, I got no ideas. I have never been in the position of trying to find really small BDU's.

I've always been on the polar opposite of the spectrum. Try finding 2XL Extra Long ACU's and BDU's. I've all but given up on the latter.
Anyway, I would just scour Google and eBay for hours, that's how I find my set. Fortunately I got lucky and found an ACU top in Extra Long on eBay soon after i realized I was actually that tall.

I don't know how good you are at needlework, but you could alter the pants that you have now that are too big.
If neither of you know anything about that type of work, I am sure that there is a tailor somewhere near you. I would imagine that an alteration would be cheaper than a whole new set of BDU's.

I am sure that there is a tailor somewhere near you. I would imagine that an alteration would be cheaper than a whole new set of BDU's. I was thinking the same. I've had to take into tailors before odd sets of camo that I couldn't replace easily and needed repaired or altered. Also, having something taken in to adjust for a smaller size then originally deigned is also significantly easier then having something let out for a larger size, trust me... The Cyclone's gained a few inches over the years.... Your best bet for this course of action would be to grab a set of BDU's & the little woman and head to a few tailors, shop around, see what they can and can't do and how much they'll charge for it.
