American Tall

Why we recommend: American Tall is an all-time favourite here on Tallsome. My american readers are pulling tall clothes down from American Tall’s shelves like there was no tomorrow.
In terms of sweatpants, the story continues, as the selection here is greater than average, at prices that are very reasonable.

You choose freely between the tapered fits, where the sweatpants follow the shape of the leg more, and narrows in at the angle. Or the relaxed fit, where you get some more wiggle room, if you are going to use them for a lazy Sunday at home. Colors center around black, white, grey and a few subtle reds and greens. And in terms of sizing, American Tall’s got you covered, whether you are just Tall, or Extra Tall, as they put it.

The size chart tells us that choosing a Tall size will give you and inseam of 34-37 inches. Choosing the Extra Tall gives you a leg length of 38-40 inches inseam. Find your favourite style and buy a pair of sweatpants with free shipping and returns, if you’re from the US.

Under Armour

Why we recommend: A sweet mom looking for a gift asked me “where can I find these Under Armour style sweatpants for my tall son?”, and my answer was pretty simple; At UnderArmour.com. For instance, if looking for sweatpants in 36″ inseam, Under Armour has a dusin styles to choose from – however, they don’t list their sizes as 36 inches inseam.

For sweatpants in my size, I’d need to choose a LGT or Large Tall. Toggling from Regular to Tall adds 2 inches to the inseam of the sweatpants. Under Armours sweatpants are a bit higher quality than Asos’, and the price also follows that tendency. So if you are willing to pay a premium for great quality, a good fit and the possibility to those precious 2 extra inches to the leg length, then Under Armour is definitely a place to buy sweatpants.

Nike

Why we recommend: I love Nike, and these sweatpants don’t disappoint. From the tightest running pants to the most relaxed lounge pants, Nike’s got you covered in terms of sweatpants for tall guys. Yes, this category is both for the “Big & Tall”, but they do have dedicated tall-sizes like “XL Tall”.

Using XL Tall as example, the size chart says that it would give me an inseam length of 35 inches. So be carefull, if you’re on the longer end of 36″ – these sweatpants might be an inch too short. If you are between 34″ and 36″, well – Nike’s sweatpants are the perfect match for you.

Asos

Why we recommend: The Tall range from Asos, which has been made for those who are 5’9″/1.75m and over, also feature tall men’s sweatpants with longer inseam, probably around 36″.
Why probably? It’s hard to get a clear answer to how much the e.g. XL Long is longer than normal XL. But having tried Asos Tall in XL Long, I’d say it’s about 36″ inseam for the sweatpants.
Here’s the whole category for you to browse through; find a style you like and favourite it. Go through your favourites and check the size selection for that magical 36″ inseam – or Long as they call it here. If you find a Size Chart where Asos tells us how much Long is actually longer than normal sizes, then feel very free to let me know in the comments.

I like the sweatpants from Asos because they have a modern feel to them in the way they are designed. Asos is generally good at adding a little extra to their styles – going beyond the basics in terms of materials and colors. Most of these sweatpants will both work for a day at home on the couch as well as a day out and about – as opposed to more dull sweatpants that you wouldn’t want to wear in public.
Size wise, you can get them in both 36″ inseam and 38″ inseam, so for me at 6’8″, they are more than long enough for my long legs.

Amazon

Why we recommend: Amazon really is the everything-store. They also carry men’s big and tall athletic sweatpants in good sizes, and at good prices. Don’t get scared off by the strong colors and at times odd fit that some of these have. The gold is in there, if you spend a minute on finding a style you like.

These bestselling sweatpants are a good example of an awesome tall-product at an amazing price.

In terms of sizing, there’s a guy wearing 36″ inseam normally, who ordered the Large and it fit just right. So about the fact that it doesn’t say 36 inseam anywhere – give them a try if you normally wear up to 36 inches inseam. If you have longer legs than that, these ones are probably not your perfect match.

2TALL

Why we recommend: If you’re from the UK, I recommend taking a look at the sweatpants from 2Tall.com. They offer both plain colors, camouflage and sweat shorts, if you’re looking for something like that.

My favourite tall men’s sweatpants are from 2Tall, and I chose the 36 inches inseam option. If you need them longer than that, 2Tall also offers a 38″ option. So no excuses here either – find a pair you like and place that order to get your hands of a new best friend.

Kingsize

Why we recommend: The tall men’s sweatpants from Kingsize are very traditional, relaxed and in plain colors. If you’re a dad or granddad, these ones are for you. Cheap options as well as popular brands are on their shelves, with prices ranging from 20 to 90 USD.

Sizes are a bit hard to wrap your head around – not so easily understood as e.g. American Tall. In the Size Chart, the message from Kingsize is: “You should order Tall if you are 6’2” or taller.”

So you should probably order the Tall sizes, and aim for your hip measurements and hope for the best in terms of inseam length.

As you might be able to hear, I haven’t tried Kingsize myself, but I wanted to feature them here, so you had the chance to check them out at least.

Zappos

Why we recommend: Although not dedicated to the tall, or featuring a dedicated category for tall men’s sweatpants, Zappos still offers one of the biggest selections of sweatpants – and some of them fit us tall perfectly.

I’ve selected a few ones here, you can check out if you want to get yours from Zappos.

First ones are from Nike, Nike Big & Tall Dry Fleece Pants 3QT Hyper Dry, and you can get them in Medium Tall, Large Tall, XL Tall etc. They’re designed to not reach your ankles fully, only to around your shins. This also makes it easier for us tall to buy – when it’s not our fault, but the designers, that these sweatpants are “too short”.
https://www.zappos.com/p/nike-big-tall-dry-fleece-pants-3qt-hyper-dry-black-black/product/9282031/color/183092

The second one I want to recommend is from Adidas, Adidas Big & Tall Essentials 3-Stripe Tricot Pant Tapered, which are also found in LT, XLT, and so on – real Tall-sizes for our extra-long limbs.

These are incorrectly labeled as “31 inseam”, which isn’t true. Read the comments, and you’ll see that people normally wearing 36″ inseam have bought these and love them.

Icebox (great finds from the Tallsome community)

1. Lulu Lemon
   Yes, these sweatpants are quite costly, but people say it’s some of the best, ever. The standard inseam is 34″, but – their ‘tall inseam’ option is 37″, which is long enough for my 6’8″ body, for sure.

Tips for Choosing Tall Men’s Sweatpants

Sweatpants are great for a lazy day – or if they are well designed, for a chill walk outside (get inspiration for how to combine jogger-looks to make it work). But they are often too short for us, the tall, and that used to be a problem.

Well, not anymore. Cause you just saw the above list of sweatpants for tall men in 36 inches inseam, or thereabouts. Some are a bit shorter like the Nike’s (around 35″), and luckily, the majority are a bit longer, from 36″ and up to 38″ or even 40″ inseam.

Sweatpants have a boring name, they are often associated with a bad, sloppy look..

But:

It doesn’t have to be like that, if you just follow a few basic tips on what to look for in a pair of sweatpants.

These three tips can serve as guidance when scrolling through the selections, I’ve shown you above:

1. Go for a tapered look – meaning a fit that follows the natural shape of a (your) leg. Often times, tapered sweatpants look more modern and stylish, as someone has put some effort into working on the fit. Tapered sweatpants are often broader around the thigh and narrower around the calves, sometimes ending in an elastic band just before your ankles.
2. Go for the more expensive options. Sorry to say, but sometimes paying a bit more comes back tenfold, when you receive your package with your new long joggers. As a matter of fact, high quality fabrics last longer and maintain their fit after many washes. Cheaper options lose their color and fit within the first couple of washes – and then they lose their look.
3. Order from a few different shops and brands – and be ready to return the majority. Even with this list here on Tallsome, it’s hard to find the perfect sweatpants for tall men. You need to take a chance and order a few different options – then see which ones are true to size in relation to your specific body.

Good luck with ordering your first, or maybe an additional, pair of sweatpants for tall men. I’ve done my very best to present you with a list of my favorites like I did with long jeans and long pants for tall men as well. Now it’s your turn to pick out your favorite tall shop and give it a go.

Joggers for tall skinny guys

Joggers, or sweatpants, whatever you call them – they are most likely not in anything above 34″ inseam in the normal clothing stores.

That’s why we have to go online to find clothing stores that feature joggers for tall skinny guys.

I know for a fact that great joggers can be found – also with legs as long as 40″ – so it’s a matter of going through this list and finding a place to try out.

My favorites are from 2tall.com – hands down. The training joggers from 2tall are tapered, great quality.. and long. I chose 38″ inseam, but I’d say they are even longer.

Joggers for jogging are different from joggers for chilling. For active use, go for fabrics with something else in them than just cotton.

The ones from 2tall consist of 60% Cotton/35% Polyester/5% Elastane, which is a great combination for transporting sweat and heat.

Check them out, and you won’t regret it.

Sweatpants, joggers, athletic pants

Whatever you call them, they are pretty much the same thing; a comfortable piece of clothing for your legs. But there are differences:

• Joggers: Joggers, or jogger pants, are semi-relaxed, semi-active pants. They are often made of cotton and can have either a tapered fit that follows the leg. Or they can have a more relaxed jogger fit, where the leg design is regular, loose or straight.
• Athletic pants: Athletic pants are the more sporty choice. They are also called tights, running tights or athletics, and tend to have a fit closer to the leg. This makes them great to wear during sports, like running, working out, etc. Material tends to be polyester and spandex, in order to distribute the sweat better and keep you dry.
• Classic Sweat Pants: Although it sounds like you’re supposed to sweat in these, the classic sweatpant is mostly used to relax in at home or on a day off. The fit is loose and the fabric is soft. Some may associate the classic sweatpant with grey colors, straight legs and lower prices. In the list above, there are plenty of options to choose from in this category.
