Longer length Tops for running (preferably long sleeved)

[knowler]

hello all - i've recently started running (done C25k) and am struggling to find decent running tops. I'm a size 18-20 (the running is helping to shift this thank goodness!!) and I'd like a decent performance top, preferably long sleeves, that is longer length, ideally covering my hips and bum.

Probably because of my size, tops of normal length tend to ride up so i expend precious energy yanking them down every few mins.

Any tips?

When I rang them (after something fairly specific for DD) the staff were really helpful and knew their stock. And we were happy with what they recommended.

Thanks Auntie i'll take a look.

The fat lass at the back running top is cut properly so it doesn't ride up. You could wear a tight base layer, or use arm warmers with it (I love arm warmers as I get so hot)

Its really hard to get tunic length tops in performance fabrics. When its cold I do run in my fleece parka which works really well.

For the warmer weather, I love a skapri for the coverage

Sports Direct or JD sports?

I order a German brand called gregstar (think amazon sells them) and I find them quite long.

I'm a similar size and have got a great long sleeved top from Decathlon, in the mens section though.

Thanks all, I'll check these out.

These Under Armour tops are amazing. There is a band of a fabric round the bottom that stops them riding up. I totally LOVE mine.

Shirley that looks fab. I'm going to order one.
