Gear for tall men
« on: 14:14:58, 25/08/08 »
Hello everyone

I'm new! Just looking for some advice:

My dad is 6'6", he really wants to get a decent waterproof jacket but we can't find one long enough anywhere. We can't find any waterproof trousers to fit him with a 35" inside leg! Any ideas where we should be looking?

Thanks
Hannah :)

Hannah, I have 2 boys, the 14 year old is 6ft 2 and the 11 year old is 5ft 7, they are both going to be about 6ft 6. We have a very tall friend, but he cheats, he's married to an American so he gets his stuff over there when visiting.
It depends what you want to spend, but if you want made to measure you can try here:

I've heard good things about them.

What a terrific website.  As a portly person, it sounds just the ticket, and not madly expensive either.

I second SS' opinion.  Thanks Coot.  I feel a wee visit to the Isle is in order.
I think this next one will be the top ...
