My curse: long legs

For some reason this has been bothering me today. But does anyone else have like long legs and a short torso? I'm 5'11" 165 lbs. I wear size 32x34 pants.

I don't know, It kinda sucks. Jeans really aren't a problem because I can normally find jeans in size 32x34, but I needed new dress pants, so my dad and I went out shopping yesterday. It was honostly so hard to find fucking khakis that actually fit me right. I mean they're dress pants, it's not like they're ski pants and you can size up until they're the right length. I spent so much time shopping on sunday i wanted to pull my hair out. Not to mention if I'm not sagging my pants and have my shirt tucked in i look like a member of the Stevey Erkel fan club.

That also got me thinking about skiing. It is so hard for me to do "easy" grabs like safety and phil. I might as well completely remove the notion of learning truck drivers from my head. I have 3 grabs: mute, tail, critical. This fall I'm hitting the gym a lot, and working on really beefing up my lower abs and getting extremely flexible, so when the time comes I can grab a lot easier.

Idk this was kind of a vent. Anyone else have this problem?

 
i know exactly how you feel. im 5'10", all legs. i cant throw truckdrivers because i cant touch my toes, my legs are just too long! most grabs are pretty difficult for me actually. i knee myself in the face pretty often when landing, more then most people.

i also have to buy DOUBLE long pants. not just longs, double longs. and they still arent long enough. it's ridiculous. i wear over a 38" inseam, so hard to find. it sucks soo much.
 
I wear 32x36 pants and really don't have that much trouble finding pants. It's a bit of a hassle, but not horrible. Ordering online opens up a lot of possibilities.
 
I'm 6'1" and I run the 100 meter sprint in track. So I have fairly big legs and ass but a thin waist. Normally I have no problem, in fact my proportions keep my pants up, but when it comes to dress pants, they get really tight and uncomfortable between the thighs and the belt line cuz you have to wear them around your waist and my waist is 31.
 
I could never touch my toes until yesterday when I spent 12 hours from idaho trying to touch them in the car. Now I'm proud of myself.

i hate having long legs. Flying and long car rides used to be so easy, but now, im always cramped up. short people dont understand how much it sucks.
 
ahahahahahaha! listen to all of you!

"i have long legs and won't ever be able to do truckdrivers!"

consider that a blessing.

 
my girl works at abercrombie and fitch and they're jeans run really long, so head there if you have the $$ to spend
 
yeah it sucks...and having really long legs compared to my torso, Its difficult to make nose grabs or truckdrivers...it pises me off
 
6'2" 303

but my advice to the guy that started the thread, go get a real pair of dress pants, not khakis but dress pants like at Joseph A. Banks, or brooks brothers and their taylor well hemm them to the right lenth.

Khakis are not dress pants!!!!!
 
what's wrong with this world. all of you kids sound so lanky and skinny. do all of you kids have 6 packs due to starvation or what?

i feel like im a normal proportion. i'm 5'10" and 33x30 165lbs.

im not fat and im not abnormally tall & skinny and im dead fucking sexy. i feel so blessed.

airplanes are perfect for me; uncomfortable seats, but the head rest is perfect. typically every girl i sleep with is a good proportion to my body allowing optimal leverage. every place has my size pants, and if they're too big, there will always be a 32 and if they're too small there will always be a 34.

the only thing im cursed with is the abundance of tall, but not tall enough to play basketball, models who are absorbing my spot in the magazines.

 
im fucked up....the top of my hip bone goes up to liek peoples nipples....i think i have like an extension on the top of my hip because people who are the same size as me, the top of their hip is like 4inches lower than mine. theres basically no gap between my ribs and hip. that really sucks but it does block all kidney shots
 
hmm well i wear a 32x32 and im like 5'10" and i can never touch my toes pisses me off cause i cant do good truckdrivers and you know those sit and reach tests in gym? once i got like -7 i think thats the least you can get
 
seriously fuck that shit. american stores are retarded. alot of people that need a 34 length dont have a 36 or 40 waist...if i could find some pants that were like 34 seam and 34 waist or 32.
 
I actually have short legs and arms. I;m like 6' 2 or 3 155-160 lbs, and I wear a 34 inseam. I have a friend that's like at least 3 inches shorter than me and he has longer arms and I think legs.
 
im 5'5" and wear 30 x 30. i cant reach my toes, which i think is part of the reason why im bad at grabs. i need to start stretching
 
i'm around 6'7'' and wear 36x36 unless i can find 36x38 which is almost impossible to find... being tall is really not as great as people think
