 Poster: A snowHead
|
Being 6'4", it isn't easy getting a new pair of ski pants that are long enough. Most of them seem to be a mix between 31" to 33" inside leg. Ideally I'd like a 34" inside leg or even longer.
Anyone know who makes ski pants made for tall (athletic  ) build?

shoogly, I have a pair of Beyond-X pants with the long leg option that are a good fit for me, available from Incline Sports in Edinburgh.
I would expect other brands of race warmup pants to work too.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I'm 5'8" but also a 34" inside leg. I generally struggle with buying all manner of activity trousers. Decathlon have a range of salopettes called 'Pull N Fit' which are adjustable length. Other than that I have never found any that don't show a bit too much boot.

that's what is really annoying, and this goes for most clothing. You have to buy XL to get the length, but end up in a tent!
rubbish.

You must have legs up to your armpits.

I'm 6'4" too, currently have a pair of regular length NF, similar to the Monte in XL which are wearable with boots on but a little tent like!
Have been looking at the NF Freedom in the long length too but a little unclear as to how they are vented... my current ones have inner thigh zips... not sure about these...?

shoogly, I agree..........mad, but made a profit on mine! Bought in sale 1/2 price in Austria and sold on ebye. Arcteryx Theta are great if you can find at right price, I ski in them with Icebreaker 3/4 leggins under and they're brilliant.

are you tall as well?

You know it makes sense.

shoogly, No, 32" IL - Theta's are a bit longer than I'd like but they work - would be better with someone 34-36" inside leg............ Never had a pair of flared jeans back in the day, always had to cut the bottom off my jeans, but had some great cushions from the offcuts!
