Just a thought, Zeiss Victory 8X25 FL Pocket. Eye relief and handling seem to be better than the average pocket bins and close to a 8x32 (according to some members here) and still very lightweight.
I can confirm they are an outstanding pair of binoculars. Very compact, if not quite pocketable like a Leica 8x20, and almost as good as the Leica 8x32 Ultravid HD for a fraction of the weight and price, which is why I sold off my Leica 8x32 UV HD.
Price probably on the higher side of what you would like to pay but they might be worth considering.
Just wait for the inevitable Optics Planet sale, as I did.
