We will be in touch
Now this may sound trivial but I’m finding it hard to find some new house joggers that are long enough 😆. Can’t go out and try any on so....I’m 6ft2 and take a 34 leg, but it’s so hard to find joggers that fit!
I need to confirm to all that I’m only living in them at the moment, as soon as the world goes back to normal I’ll be back in smart jeans / chino’s!
Bought some Superdry large ones after they suggested M for my height....So I got the Large...got them, too short! Then bought XL’s, slightly big on the waist but....too short!
So can anyone suggest brands that do good length joggers?
I don’t want to go chav though I’ll confirm that!!
I get given mine by the cabin crew in First Class.
Thought I'd get in before Flashy.
Also....nobody advertises the inside length of joggers!
Bought some forbike ones the other month from France and they were perfect, then I washed them and now they’re shorter! But just about ok, wonder if anyone else has the same issues being long legged!
Aka shitecatchers
Living in my under armour joggers at the moment. They are long on me, but I am short of leg (31).
I can thoroughly reccomend Bam joggers (BAM clothing and I can confirm they are plenty long enough for my long legs. And they've washed really well without any shrinkage.
Free returns iirc on orders over something like £50 so makes sense to order different sizes and send back what you don't want. I like all their stuff, got a few t-shirts and long sleeve stuff too.
I've worn mine so much i couldn't get them off, had to be cut out of them
It was an emergency tracky bottomy
Hahaha, honestly I’m not prod of the fact I have had to return so much!
It’s getting expensive on postage as struggling to find free returns companies too, £100 road bike bibs, 2x£35 superdry joggers and more....
Postage £5 each time!!
I’m a Yorkshireman, postage costs grate on me 🤣
I have a couple of pairs of BAM joggers, but they used to do a long leg version and those are the ones i have
Although i wear shorts everyday so they’re not getting worn!
Bam joggers
I take it they are not scots? Bam joggers are a whole different thing up here.
Those bam joggers look good, is it me that just thinks £50 for joggers is just a lot of money too.... I’m comparing to the disposable primark ones that aren’t meant to last longer than 2 years really....or 2 minutes 😆
Any other suggestions for the gangly legged of us?
This is what happens when Sports Direct is shut
I don’t know how long the nation can endure this
I got some Asics "sweatpants" delivered today, from SportShoes.com
I'm 34" leg and they're long enough. Although, they are XL.
Was looking for joggers today for much the same reason - saw some on ASOS, Nike tall club or similar.
Binners......
The hilarious truth about that is I’d never shop at sports direct, but the Superdry ones came from there!
Ahh ok so ASICS could be an option
Any good mtb brands anyone wears for casual ones? Found some Santa Cruz ones on stif but they’re £50 and could also be too short 😂
Just get the BAM ones and stop being tight!
They’re five times the price of primark ones... 😂
I do have bamboo socks and they are amazing, they were a present though, but I may be tempted to just stop having a sad face after looking forward to another delivery!!
Primark ones are made by slaves out of the tears of the planet.
Check out BAM's eco/ethical credentials, seems pretty convincing to me. If you wear them all the time the difference in cost per use is negligible.
Free return over 50 quid - surely that would attract the Yorkshireman in you?!
Now that you mention it, eco credentials and free returns sounds very attractive
M&S do them in usual trouser waist/length sizing rather than S/M/L. They go up to 35” inside leg. I got some in black and really like them, feel a bit less slobby than the usual sort, more like a really comfy warm cotton trouser.

eat some pies. Having a 36” waist opens the door the a veritable cornucopia of longer legged trousers for some reason. But then in larger waist sizes than 36 the legs get shorter again.
I’m kind of between sizes - I’d wear 35” trousers if anyone made them but to get the leg length I wear 36” and a belt
My mate Si definitely fitted into the ‘gangly’ catagory. He was similar proportions to Jacob Rees Mogg. He always used to wear a pair of Ralph Lauren joggers around the house
They were referred to by us all as the piss-pants as he’d had them so long and they were so grubby, we reckoned the only thing holding them together were the piss-stains
These are good for the long of leg and not to warm. https://www.decathlon.co.uk/p/men-s-fitness-cardio-training-bottoms-500-s8/_/R-p-312018?mc=8569351&c=BLUE
GymShark are also worth looking at.
I ended up with Fruit of the Loom ones off Amazon, but I'm shorter and probably fatter than you.
"House joggers"? That has to be an oxymoron. Unless you are doing intervals up the stairs.
34 inch inside leg here, the bam long length joggers are brilliant I got mine in a sale half price. Not sure I d drop 50 quid on a pair.
I think I bought a couple of pairs but found the heavier weight ones too warm, just kept the mid weight ones.
Hahaha I am a 36” waist, ahh some great options there! I just fancied some “nicer” joggers, BUT didn’t want to pay the Earth. Some great options there!
I did get to week 7 on MTBFitness course which might’ve brought me to a 34, but then xmas hit and I’ve got so many things going on now struggle to fit it in!! Thank god I’ve got my bike locally to keep the fitness going!!
Canterbury Uglies, you'll never want for anything else. Lined joggers!
What grum said several posts above.
I’ve got some BAM joggers, happy to pay a bit more for the eco-credentials and for something that’s not going to end up in the bin in 6 months’ time.
Brilliant NEXT are another option then, I hope this has helped others too 👍
😆 a pair of joggers from there and then one of vic and bobs.... “Geordie Jumpers” and you’re set!
I'm wearing a pair of Canterbury too, they are easily the nicest I own, but I don't have long legs. As they are a Rugby brand though they tend to fit a range of sizes!
Ah, 'Gangsta pants'. The saviour of home workers in the developed world.
I really should try using them at some point, but it does feel just a little too much like starting work in pajamas to me.
I've got some Patagonia ones and am long legged (33") and the Med fit fine albeit only for house display or bin putting out !
£5 from Primark.
Well i've had a delivery of some NEXT ones this morning, they're spot on - slightly large around the waste but i think they'll wash a bit smaller so spot on....
These in long are plenty long enough, i don't think Primark is open at the moment is it? If it is, if i'm honest i wouldn't want to go anyway. Only reason i leave the house is to food shop late at night, avoiding any populated places. If they did online shopping, the postage system of the UK would just fall over!
I’m wearing my old GB Canoe and Kayak team issued Reebok trackies from 1997 the top tip is to buy a waist size that is far above your own then the legs will always be long enough.
I can’t believe these are still going to be fair, I’ve lived in them for 24 years, even wore them to work when I was warehousing as a yoof
24 years?!!! 😮 well ironically these ones are going back. They’re great in the leg but I should’ve gone medium and not large.... ordered them but I can confirm Next do work for the longer legs 👍
Now I need to stop buying joggers and buy a SRAM X1 shifter 🤣
