For the tall among us

Post by Montana Jones »

Yep, this includes me. My biggest problem with finding indy gear is that nobody seems to tailor to the tall folk. While doing some searching I found a pair of pants that are close enough and not too espensive. The great part is that they offer free hemming to an inseam of 37-1/2". With shipping, the total came out to about 27.00 USD and I am pretty pleased with them. I can't offer any photos (lack of camera) but I will answer any questions that I can.

The pants can be found here

Say those are pretty nice looking!

I'm in teh same boat as you. I usually don't have trouble find pants, but my problem is shirts. Usually by the time I get a shirt with enough sleeve its about three times too big in the body! :roll:

I know that Indy Magnoli of Magnoli Clothiers does tailor fitting. Those pants are pretty nice though. Nice find. :D

Yeah, those do look nice, though not pleated.

Like Weaver, I find dress shirts to be the problem also. Pants, I find, are easier, but not really easy to find. Though some times they do just stop at 32 inseam in the stores. :evil:
