FirstGear makes a few different pants in short sizes. I've had really good luck with their gear (I take tall sizes, and they're one of the few to offer those, too).

Also, check out this page on newenough.com: http://newenough.com/browse/advanced_search

It's for odd sized people like you and me.

Got a pair of Tour Master textile pants that come in short with adjustable knee armor, nice feature.

I believe Olympia also has adjustable knee armour.

I had the First Gear Mesh-tex shorties & didn't like them...they are riding pants & not overpants...you're basically in yer underwear, or maybe a swimsuit, at best adventure shorts.

I changed to Joe Rocket Phoenix shorties and they are much more practical from my perspective, as they can be worn as overpants (or not).
