I found some decent ones at Target, in the small "sporting goods" area they have.

Another option is to buy some self sticking velcro and extend the one you have.

I had to buy these for the ride last weekend, nice materials and length would seem to work over some pants, not super baggy jeans. I wore them over socks for 14 hour ride and forgot they were ever there.
