Why do almost all tshirts follow a standard template? M, L etc all measure as slightly bigger but not on the length. So after a couple of warm washes you end up with a short tshirt. If you buy a size large you end up looking like your wearing a tent.
Anywhere that sells good tshirts for tall folk??
I have problems too, but found that Hugo Boss T-shirts are a good fit. We have an outlet shop nearby and I only paid £19 each top last time.
Mexx long sleeve t-shirts are a longer fit.
Spokeshirts are a good fit too. In fact came up too big for me and for the first time sent back and ordered a smaller size.
M&S do long fit versions of quite a lot of t shirts
I have the same problem. Howies t-shirts used to be sized quite long

Got a pack of plain white tshirts from CostCo - v good quality and like wearing a sleeping bag for me!

The problem with M&S (as with their shirts) is the designs are 😐
But also- they are longer and massoooove on the trunk. Their fitted shirts- I once took one back and put it over my coat to demonstrate how large it was.
i've got a howies merino vail t-shirt that is really long in the body.

Because most people aren't freakish gibbon-esque, stretched people. Actually… I have the same problem. I am also proportioned similar to a baboon. Howies is the answer. I know how complimentary you are about them generally, so you'll love that! 😀
How about one of these….

I have the same problem.
surely some sort of Binnertshirt would be the solution
Arm wrestle binners?
only if we're topless and greased?
Confused, only a sicko would arm wrestle fully clothed.
True. Speedos and chip fat?

I am one of these - you may also call me lanky. I only ever buy skate t-shirts in medium - tend to be slim(ish) fit and long enough to cover my gibbon-esque belly button. However, if you're not 27 y/o and don't wear mostly skateboard attire anyway then you may look like you're having a mid-life crisis...they are also pricey, but last a lifetime!

Where from?
Patagonia have a nice long body, and they're superb quality cotton too.
Slightly longer than most. Not crazy long, but definitely longer than most - check their sizing guide.
dont wear your jeans round your arse ?
tbh i started wearing shirts alot more as they tended to be longer than t-shirts.
skate t-shirtsWhere from?
Just my local skate shop usually, but online look at www.routeone.co.uk or something similar. Pop into your local skate/bmx/snowboard shop if you have one and try some on. Some brands medium might be too baggy around the body, but overall I like the sizing of certain brands -WESC, Volcom, Nixon all do good mediums for me.
Trend down in that Lonjon is longer cut shirts and t-shirts so you can tuck them in yer pants and they don't ride up/out of yer pants when riding..
This ultimately means it'll hit the Norf in 2016.. You have a couple more years of builders bum'idge 😆
Welcome to 1988. 🙄
Thats another thing- I dont want to show folk my backwings 😀
Don't tumble dry and stretch the t-shirts as they come out of the washing machine - to make them longer, they will then dry like that.
I don't own a tumble dryer- they get stuck out on a line
Have you thought of hanging weights off them when they're on the line.
Patagonia have a nice long body, and they're superb quality cotton too.
Only £69.99 each as well (Sale price) 😉
