Try Veronica Maine - Pricey but they seem to be very long. I am 29" inside leg and had to cut off at least 5" when I bought from there.

Re: Longer Length Trousers

I got a pair of M&S long length jeans from the op shop a few weeks ago for $8. They look unworn so I was thrilled with that bargain.

I have seen lots of long length jeans whilst op shopping, its always worth a look.

Why is it assumed that fat people are short. Or that short people are fat? It's non-sensical.

Probably because statistically - they are(!) and that it's economical to sell what people want. I've answered my own question!

Yep, and there are some brilliant ones about. I have bought LOADS of clothes and stuff for the house. You can often get UK labels like M&S, George, Evans etc.
