Lululemon adds a tall-sized trouser and it’s good

So I have an Clothing for tall men post for good reason – at 6’10” there are few options. Recently, I was watching this video about workwear and he briefly compares the crotch gusset to that of the Lululemon ‘ABC’ pant. I was intrigued, so I watched his video about the ABC Pant, in which is quite positive. This is unusual, he’s expert and incisive. It sounded like an honest to god well-made, well-designed functional pair of trousers for an acceptable price ($138 as of today, or $117 after the signup discount.) I also have a Lululemon gym bag from work (freebie for getting a patent) and it surprised me at how much I like it. So I was curious enough to go to their website and check them out:

Dude! 37″ inseam! That’s my size.

My pair arrived today; I’ll spare you a picture but they are excellent – beautifully made as the video explained (No B surfaces anywhere), have a good phone pocket and a sub-pocket for the Victorinox, inseam is long enough, super soft and comfortable and the tech-pant-sheen is minimal.

(The guesset is as described. ABC. Look it up.)

Anyway, Lululemon basically only has the 5-pocket as their tall size. Nothing in shirts or other trouser styles, but these are 100% wheelhouse for me and I’m quite pleased. I think they will be perfect for my next travel adventure, and of course bike errands or at the office. A bit pricy, but I actually feel for once that, having watched the teardown video, I’m actually getting value for my money. That I can recommend. That earns it a place on #YouShouldBuy.
