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.

Ridiculous

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'm the exact opposite; I'm 5'7" or so and I have a 32x30 (but my real inseam is about 27 inches).

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.

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.

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.
