Who else makes "tall" cycling/run attire?

Love my Roka medium tall cycling jersey....the only one that fits me properly. I would like some of their running shirts as well, but they are so expensive. Anyone know of a good cycling and running gear manufacturers who offer "tall" versions of their gear?

I am 6,4 with, 80kg, and long back - it was hard to get a good fitting wetsuit and trisuit. For wetsuit I got a aqua sphere - never pulls in the back.

For trisuits I tried a lot of brands including XXL sizes but found them baggy and short - the best fitting by far is a dutch (tallest nation in the world) brand called MATONG. It feels great - and online you can order cheap basics or custom prints. I went for the basic 3XL size and never had a better fit at race weight.

I have yet to ever find stuff that first for me as a tall super skinny guy. If you find stuff, sure would be nice
not having to have my belly always sticking out.

I've had good luck with Aerotech Designs for tall cycling gear. They also have t-shirts with tall sizing, which I haven't tried yet. They come in well under Roka's pricepoint.

I'm 6'10 and wear a roka XL sleeveless wetsuit

The roka cycling gear fits the best, hincapie in L or XL is a close second.

I'm about to order a custom Coure tri suit, so we'll see how that works soon.
