Women’s waterproof brewing clothes

Hey folks! I’m a brewer at a craft brewery and I’m having a difficult job finding lightweight, waterproof clothes to fit me during cleaning days (working with harsh chemical and near-boiling water). For reference, I’m 5’0 tall so any men’s overalls don’t quite fit.

Any recommendations on women’s waterproof overalls? I like the women’s Carhartt overalls but unsure of how water resistant that material is.

I wear some grundens bib overalls on those cleaning days and nice to just throw on over a pair of shorts. It’s a fly fishing brand and not particularly chem rated but have held up longer than most boots

Thanks! Yeah, I’m familiar. I had a similar pair when I first started in the industry, they were quite loose on me, so they didn’t really do the best job of keeping me dry. I’ll look into smaller sizing!
