I'm tall (6 ft) and jeans in most shops are too short, eg. Boden long ones are still too short. I need probably 34" or even 36" leg length. I'm after straight cut rather than flared or bootleg. Gap have just started doing some jeans in a 34" leg, but mainly out of stock and not in combination with the waist size I need (UK size 14, generally).
I found some in Dorothy Perkins Tall range which did fit, but they were very skinny jeans, and made me feel as if I was trying to look like a 14yo. Long Tall Sally have some, but are also described as Skinny -- I quite like narrow fit, but don't want the skin-tight effect, as it's too mutton-dressed-as-lamby on me.
Any thoughts? I'm after dark navy or (ideally) black, smart rather than casual.
