running apparel for tall folks?

tall runners. Has anyone else had any luck?

How tall are you ? I'm 6ft, and the size 'L' in Sugoi is a little too long
for me. Might be a good brand to try because it runs a little long and
narrow.

Hind and Sporthill both make men's tights in "Long".

I'm 6'4" and have Nike speadsuits, dri-fit tops (long sleeve) and tights. All
fit me just fine.

But those trainers (oh, no, not that again).....

Do you have trouble finding spikes that fit ? I'm 4 inches shorter than you
and I need about a size 11 in track spikes (compared to a 10 in normal fitting
trainers) Do they make bigger than size 13 ?

Most major brands will go up to size 15 in spikes.

I don't have a problem with Nike spikes, of which I have Zoom JSC, Jasari,
Kennedy, and Superfly. My feet might be a bit small for my height, and my
training shoes (Adidas) and spikes are both size 12. I wear my spikes barefoot
and my training shoes with socks.

This is not necessarily an advantage, because when Eastbay has a sale on
spikes, size 12 is usually one of the first to sell out (and 13 is too big for
me).

BTW, Eastbay has the new Nike Monsterfly up to size 15. Can't imagine a
sprinter THAT big...

Yes, try the local costume shop, they have several Spiderman costumes
available.

Ted. the "Spiderman costume" material is mine. You owe me a dollar.
