Parents of tall boys

I wonder if anyone has managed to find Nike or Adidas tracksuit bottoms that fit in length for boys about 6ft2?
We have trousers in long lengths but branded tracksuit bottoms with the light shiny jogger fabric seem impossible to find. Any tips would be very appreciated 😊

I take it you are looking at the men's range? Just you've titled your post as parents of tall boys but at 6ft 2 you are talking about tall for an adult. My husband buys mainly from adidas they seem to stock for his height though he's not quite as tall.

We found that Boohoo men have a whole section of tracksuits for tall men. Only place I have managed to get adequate tracksuit bottoms for son of 6 ft 4+. Not sure about branded, but good value. Have not found any kids range going to that height.

Thank you - yes did mean to say that I'm looking at men's ranges. I wondered if Adidas may be a bit longer. It's frustrating because 6ft 2 ish isn't really unusual for men I don't think. I also presumed plenty of people on the taller side are just as into sports and yet the range seems really narrow.

I will take a look on boohoo as well - if it's the right fabric, I dont think he's too worried about the label/ brand 😊

Fatface tall, Next tall, 2tall, ASOS tall, Boohooman tall are all places I've looked and Jacamo have a check box for long arms, they cater to all sizes.

You prob need to search for his actual inside leg measurement and compare. My dh is 6"3 but only has 31" inside leg trousers, easy to find. For tops though we have to go to 2tall and the like.

I have found that all the sports brands come up very short legged.

Most shops, I find, size them better. Apart from Marks and Spencer, which I also find are short on the legs.

If you look on the Nine and Adidas wevsites, they do tall ranges.

We got some from My Protein that came up long. Ds has a 34 inch leg and these were ok but quite a slim fit which he needs.it is tricky!
