Tall mommas come in

I am 5'10" and having a hard time finding mat. pants that are long enough.  I found one pair from KMart that fit, but their mat section isn't available online.  So those in my same situation what worked for you? I also don't have a lot of money to spend on them.

Re: Tall mommas come in

  • Im 5'10" too, I found some at Macy's, they're not as long as my regular jeans, but they work, they were about $45, but they had a sale buy 1 get one 50% off. They also had a pair tht was only $25. I hope this helps.

  • Good luck GF is all i can say. I am 5'8 and had a really hard time. The best outfits I wear are tights with a long sweater. I despise flooders. I have yet to come across maternity in longs.

  • I'm the shorter sister of a tall girl, and she would buy motherhood jeans when they were on sale and do well - I buy the same ones, but have them taken up... They are as cheap as $15 if you catch the right sale!  Good luck!

  • I like the long pants from Gap best.  i'm 5'11 and the long jeans are way too long for me.  the dressier pants are what i wear to work everyday.  they aren't inexpensive, but they often go on sale.

  • I am 5'11'' as well, and my inseam is about 34". I have had luck at the Gap as well, especially with sales. I did A LOT of searching for inexpensive pants that were long enough (I can't believe you found a pair at K-Mart of all places!) :0) and the Gap had the best prices over all.

  • Thanks ladies.  I went to Motherhood and found some with a 33" inseam (same as the pants that fit).  I am also happy as they were buy 1 get 1 50% off!

  • I'm 6 feet tall and I got my jeans at Motherhood. I normally wear a 12-long so the large-long at MM fit me really well. I was actually quite surprised. I found a pair for $32, but they often have BOGO 50% off on their jeans. Maybe you could find coupons for there too. =]

     ETA: Oh, I see that you already discovered that. I really should read every response before I reply. I'm glad you found some that work!

  • At the Macys in my area, they are having a mat denim sale buy 1 pair, get 1 1/2 off. I got 2 pairs of size long maternity jeans for $60 total. Other than those, all my mat pants are from Gap. I'm 5'11 and and size 4 (size Small Long in Motherhood pants) the length from both stores is great.

  • I am 5'10"  and I had the best luck at Burlington Coat Factory.  They have cute stuff and the jeans label "Paris Blues" are plenty long on me.  I even have a pair with little rips in them and get lots of comments on them.  People can't believe they are maternity pants.  All of my jeans were around $18-$20.

     I also recommend the Gap tall yoga maternity pants.  Super comfy, very long and can be paired with dressier shirts as well as casual wear.  Best $40 I've spent.  I have a feeling they will come in handy when baby arrives too.

  • I'm 5'10" and all my jeans are from the Gap. The inseam is 34"- it's just barely long enough on me but I couldn't find any with 36". I got them early in the pregnancy on sale and I've worn them every day- I love them!

    As for yoga pants/ leggings I got non-maternity ones from Victoria's secret. The "most loved yoga pant" goes up to a 36" inseam but they also have 34".  The "daily legging" comes with a 29" inseam which is fine esp if you're tucking your legging into boots. I wear them both like crazy.

     

    EDIT: Gap is having a sale today 30% off sale items when you enter GAPSALE. I have several tops from them too, they're pretty nice. Also free shipping over $50.

    VS always has different sales going too.

  • I bought some tall jeans from MM, and they fit me well, though I'm only 5'9".  I borrowed a couple of pairs of regular length MM pants from a friend, and they are too short to even wear with flats, so I'm tucking them into tall boots and hoping I never have to take my shoes off!
