Workout Pants for Tall Girls?!

GoldsGymGirl · 11-11-2008, 04:28 PM

I need to buy some new work out pants and was wondering if you ladies had any recommendations. I am about 5'8" and need about a 35/36 inseam.. I've seen a few girls wear the black yoga looking pants with colored waist bands, but I don't know where to get them..

Any suggestions would be awesome.. Thank you!

I have these pants and I'd highly recommend them as they're inexpensive and very durable: http://www.target.com/C9-Champion-Bo...e=1&rh=&page=1

I have the opposite problem in that I'm short, but these come in short, medium, and long lengths. Apparently, upon reading the reviews, the inseam on the "long" is 36".

I too am 5'8" and just bought 2 pair from Target; they have them for 5'9" and taller, which gave me plenty of length in case the shrink a little.

I agree with the Target suggestions. I had ordered some from Victoria's Secret but they were always too big in the waist no matter what size I ordered. I could never get them to fit right. The ones from Target fit me perfectly. In fact I'm wearing some in my avatar but you can't really tell. And they're quite long.

Lululemon has great yoga pants. The reverse groove pant is awesome and does miraculous things for my flapjack butt. lol
The inseams run loooooong, plus the Lululemon shops offer free alterations on their pants.

They tend to be pricey (around $70) but they last forever. I've had a pair of the boogie crop pants for about 5 years and they still look decent.
