Why is it very difficult to buy a long length t shirt

[hostleg]

I just want a long length T-shirt. Being 5ft 8 and overweight. So many T-shirts are short in length, fitted. Not brilliant if want to cover up.

Can’t afford much

Next tall range?

Yours do a 3 pack for £24.

There are loads on Amazon, I just got three last weekend.

Tesco has some

It drives me crazy. I'm tall and so fed up of boxy short t shirts.

I found some nice longer length t shirts in Next, few different designs all under a tenner each.

Maybe a “T-shirt dress” would be the same length as a long T-shirt these days

Just picked up some long v-neck T-shirts in plain colours from Next. £7.50 or 2 for £14.

Even if I find one that I like, there’s some stupid slogan on it like ‘I’m a princess’ or some childish print like Bambi or Hello Kitty. I’m a grown woman not a 8-year-old. The T-shirt making industry needs a revolution.

Have you tried menswear as they tend to be longer in length? Have bought from Sainsburys etc . Uniqlo is probably best for basic t shirts etc . I tend to buy the long sleeve ones from them .

At the moment, one of the fashion are 'baby tees' very small and tight t-shirts with that kind of thing on it.

It’s incredibly annoying. Like manufacturers are trying to use the least possible amount of fabric in women’s clothes, while charging us more.

Im not tall and still have this issue.
Ide like to be able to lift my arms and not have my belly on display.

This is why I switched to men's t shirts. I look like a sheet hanging on a washing line but they are comfy.

Buy men's.

Men’s are cheaper and better quality material I’ve found

yours t-shirts are very long

Do you wear Music merch? I have hundreds of long sleeved band t shirts 😂

Another vote for men's t-shirts.

@hostleg

do you have a Primark nearby?

The Ivy range from Fat Face are quite long length (depends how long you want, but they tend to stick out from beneath a jumper on me).

Yep men's t shirts for me too - I hate "too short" t shirts by the men's ones are always longer - I got quite a few in Poundland so not expensive.

You have my sympathy as well of the same from my DDs. We are all long in the body . Had some from next that fit well.and some from yours

Mountain Warehouse are my go-to for long t-shirts and they wash and wear well

I agree @hostleg , i hate short boxy tee shirts...I'm short and boxy enough.
