Finally! Affordable yoga pants for tall ladies

Posted on Mar 5th 2008 4:30PM by Kristen Seymour
I can't tell you how many pairs of athletic pants I've purchased only to find that I'm unable to wear them with actual athletic shoes because they're just too short. While I'm taller than average, I'm no giant, so I can't imagine how difficult it is for truly tall women to find yoga or warm up pants that don't show their socks.

I noticed about a year ago that Victoria's Secret offered yoga pants in long lengths, and I was so excited. Just so you understand, I'm not that concerned about how I look while I'm working out, but I like to have casual athletic pants for errands I run before or after the gym, and yoga pants are perfect for that. So, I went online to order, and get this: the pants were $29 to start with (alright, fine), and then when shipping (standard, within two weeks or so) and tax were added on, they came to nearly $40!

That's why I was ecstatic to find these C9 by Champion pants at Target available in long length. They're only $19.99 (there's another style available for $29.99), they're good quality, and THEY'RE LONG! I only see them in the store on occasion, but they are available online as well. They're also available in short length, so my vertically challenged girlfriends needn't feel left out, either.

Woo hoo! I'll never look like I'm getting ready to do yoga in a flood again!
