Default Longer fit cycling jersey

Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and fairly new to cycling in general. I'm looking for a cycling jersey with a slightly longer than normal fit, I'm about 6'4 and relatively slim, I've tried on a few Polaris jersies but they're just too short for me (unless I go for an XXL, long enough but too loose).
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm looking for something "hi vis" if possible.
Many thanks.

Slightly long than normal fit.. At 6"4 it won't be easy finding one of those that fits, have you checked out some different brands online? You might need to find one that has the right measurements your looking for and buy it online, unless your lucky enough to find one in a local shop.

Most places that do DRY CLEANING also do alterations ... so, if you find an XXL jersey that has the length & look you want, you can buy it.

N.B. Although you are slender, now, and may be for years to come, don't let them make it too snug ... also, during the "fitting" you want to bend over into a riding "stance" (with your arms stretched forward) to ensure that the jersey doesn't bind.
