Default Now a gear question

Okay,

So I am about 5'6", 170-175 lbs.

I am looking for some overpants with (preferably) CE rated armor.

The problem I am encountering is that when the pants fit around the waist, the length is too long. Now, in normal pants, this is no big deal, since I can just get them hemmed. But in this case, that usually would have the armor below the knees.

Has anyone else encountered this? What is a plausable solution?

Thanks!

Joe
