Good Pants/Jeans for Tall Peeps (over 6'2")
« on: June 06, 2015, 10:31:18 AM »
I'm 6'4" and have one hell of a time trying to find a good pair of pants/jeans that are comfortable and long enough for me.  Skate gear typically stops their inseams at 32", so I'm usually shit out of luck there.  Just looking for a proper fit that's not slim or highwater by any means.  Any suggestions from any of tall-ass guys out there?  (Other than Dickies, btw)  Thanks!

Carhartt jeansactually seem to have the best variety of styles/shapes/sizes for jeans

im not tall but they had jeans for my short ass that fit better than dickies or levis jeans so I would bet they got you covered.

I like the B17 style jeans myself

I'm 6'3 myself and I really like the fit of the Levis 559 not too baggy or slim. I got a couple pairs at JC penny for $40 bucks a pair.

I love Old Navy Loose Fit Khakis. They have a real comfortable fit, but they don't look like balloons (I can wear them to work). Also, they're only $30 a pair and they make them up to a 36" inseam.

Great pants if you don't want to spend $60 on some stretch denim bullshit or look all trendy wearing dickies.

carhartt rugged work khaki are what I've been wearing for the last year. i got them for a pretty good price off of amazon, like 18 a pair. pretty good fit, and they have the length i need (36, I'm 6'6) so thats always a plus. and the knees haven't blown out yet

Levi's 501 are good, but make sure to order them from a store like Zappos that has easy shipping because some of them are like skinny jeans and some are like dad jeans. Depends on where they are made and stuff
Also, Wrangler jeans (the real deal ones, not the ones you get at Target) come in every fucking size. You can get a 40 inseam if you want. I'm 6'6" and 36" inseam on the 501's is a little high waters for me so I'll probably be getting the Wrangler's when I'm outta trousas

I'm 6'2" and I like Levi's and DC pants. I've wanted to try some Carhartt pants forever too but haven't been able to pull the trigger on something that expensive yet

Good looking out fellas!  I'm going to try out a couple of these suggestions.  I've been looking for the perfect pair of jeans /pants for the duration of my life and every time I find a good pair they mysteriously vanish from production.

I'm 6'4" too man, I know your pain. You should check out the Vans AV78 pants. Not slim by any means but hardly "baggy" either. They are just about the perfect length for me - long enough to cover the top of my shoes so they don't look like highwaters without bunching up at my heels. They're also one of the more durable pairs of pants I've had recently.

Volcom Vorta jeans have been my go-to for the past couple years now.  slim yet not too slim, plus volcom makes some ideal sizes for us taller folk.

I'm like 6'5 and  OG Dickies 34 length are perfect. Levi jeans 36 length are really good for me too cuz I'm able to cuff them without highwatering.

Yeah, Dickies have never done me wrong.  Just ordered some Levi's so I'm looking forward to seeing how this works out.  I haven't fucked with Levi's since the 90's Silver Tab days.

Good looks on the 559!  34x36 is perfection!!!

I'm 6'3" and I ride my bike a lot so I've got pretty big thighs which makes finding pants that fit how I want a pain in the ass sometimes. Levis 522 fit is pretty solid, it's a slim taper so I can still be a fancy boy without having to size up in the waist and have it look all weird up top. The 501 CT is pretty solid too, again with the tapers. I actually had to size down in those though, otherwise they're a little "dad-ish."

I just re-read and you don't like slim, so this actually doesn't help you at all.
Look I'm not selling anything that doesn't have my jizz on it. I don't care how much is offered.

Skate pants is gunna be tough. Vans are always pretty long, but not 6'7 long

Lose the waist size and stick with the waist and length sizes, 32 x 34 works for me. I'm sure 32x 36 gets made just harder to find
