Extra long joggers for Dd 5ft 11?

She’s 14. All the normal ones are calf length. She likes Nike but they don’t seem to do them. She’s a 34/35 inch leg

Does anyone do them?

ASOS do a good tall range. I have various things from it and I'm pleased with them all for the price.

Topshop tall on ASOS.

I have some and DH accidentally put them on the other day thinking they were his. He wore them for 3 hours before realising they were a bit tight Grin

They were more than long enough on him though and he’s 6ft 2.

ASOS are probably the best for her. Quite trendy. But Next, PLT, BooHoo etc all do Tall ranges, worth a look. I feel for her. It's better now than it was when I was 14 (30+years ago and 6'1), but still pretty slim pickings.

I’ve sent her a picture of the ASOS ones.

She doesn’t like them..🤬I have no idea what there is to dislike about them. But that’s teens😡

Thank you for your help. It’s so hard having tall female children. Jeans are a bloody nightmare too.

I'm with you OP! My Dd is 12 and although "only" 5"6 her legs are 33 inches. Just an inch less than her 6" tall dad! As she is only 12, she still has a thick waist and no hips/bums. Jeans are a total nightmare. Can't get any to fit. We found some joggers in new look, but they don't generally do the tall range in store.

She also has very long arms which means jackets often don't fit either.

It's a pain but her legs are fab! Better than my 28" ones Wink

I have 36” at 6ft and have a pair of men’s joggers as I’m fairly straight up/down has she looked in the men’s ranges? Adidas have a tall range that might be worth a shot.

I have no idea OP but am marking.

I have a pair of ASOS ones and they are so long in the body I can pull them right up to my boobs. They are hideous 😂

Would love some nice trakkie bottoms, even the m end ones seem to come up really short.

@Passthecake30 which ones do you have?

The last ones I bought from asos I had to send back for being too long. This was a new experience for me, at 5'10"! I can only assume they were designed to be worn with heels...
Boohoo also have a tall range.

My DD is 11 and I have to get her adult or age 13/14 joggers as she's tall. It's only going to get worse, isn't it?

I am 6ft tall and agree ASOS tall are really good and long. Also Adidas have started doing a tall range in some items I've noticed but haven't actually tried them yet

Mine are fcuk men’s tall slim joggers from ASOS, I love them as they sit an inch or so under my belly button, I’m a 12 and got the medium. I don’t think they’re in stock atm but they are worth looking out for, if I needed another pair I’d definitely look for men’s tall ones first, as the ladies ones go up too high for comfort.
Jumping ships tall joggers might also be worth a look @Teateaandmoretea

I'm 5ft8 and I have a pair of DH's Nike ones, I also steal his pj bottoms as men's ones are so much longer and so fit me, I hate women's PJs. Also belonging to DH there're very roomy in the waistband 🤪

My DD is 5"9 and all leg and we have the same problem with uniform and PE joggers. She's got the ASOS tall ones. They are really long. New Look tall do joggers too. Zalando has a tall section and Next tall bottoms are nice and long.
