    Default Pants and jeans for tall skinny people

    Anyone else have trouble finding pants and jeans that fit your tall and slender frame? Thus far, I've had luck with Dockers Slim pants. All the Levis I've tried have been either too skinny or two baggy around the butt area.

    My inseam is about a 35 and my waist is about 30.

    if you don't care TOO much about fashion, try carharrt.

    i'm tall but don't have the 'skinny' issue, but they offer a range of cuts, and the no-butt ones should work for you.

    32x36 here. Carharrts for work, Levis Jeans (am ordering some 501 shrink to fits tonight). What I can't seem to find is a pair of Chinos... Anywhere...

    JCrew, online at least, will get you 36 inch inseam in 30-38in waist. I'm a fan.

    I'll second the JCrew comment. Urban slim fits are pretty much the perfect chino for me.

    I agree. Sign up for their annoying emails, they have frequent sales.

    Has anyone experience with: OriJeans - Tailored Selvedge Denim They are not far from me and their fit promise is similar to Proper Cloth who I dearly love.

    My last batch of 501's are on their last legs and looking for something THAT good and maybe even tougher.

    30x34 here....the last few pairs of jeans I picked up while in the US were Target house-brand Levis in a slim fit and long leg length....They were cheap as chips, they look good, and they've been thrashed at work and lasted really well. I'm wearing a pair of grey ones as I type...

    I just got a pair of Taylor Stitch chino pants - alas they must go back because my thighs are just too big, even though I went with the "democratic fit" (I must be on the fringes of democracy)...

    ... but they come in 36" inseams and seem to be quite well-constructed. I was floored by how nice it was to have pants that are actually long enough! They are pricey but made in USA and you can get 15% off your first go.

    Bonobos. Goofy name, nice pants - great selection in 32x36. I'm skinny, but had to go with the 'normal' fit to be comfortable. The skinnys are really skinny. . .

    Thumbs up for Bonobo "Travel Jeans" straight leg. Great quality and terrific fit. Makes my @ss look amazing ;)
    This might break me of my Levi's habit. Bonobo pockets are nice and deep, riveted pockets and true to measure inseams.
