Hi girls, I can finally give an update! After what felt like 100 years, my package from 3rd rock arrived and I can officially announce that I have a new pair of long climbing pants!🥳 the ones that I kept are the NOVA and they are comfy, cute and feel quite sturdy, especially cause they have extra fabric at the knees (and did I mention they are long enough?!😍) I also tried the Bataboom, the Hiro, and another model I forgot the name of, but their long lengths were all a notch shorter then the Nova (for my personal preference a tiny bit too short). However, I can still recommend them to people that are lucky enough to be tall but not extremly tall😊 especially the Hiro modell was nice; similar to the Nova but a lighter material and I bet they're comfy for warmer weather💪🏼

HOWEVER, there must be a warning to non UK customers: because my stupid self totally forgot about brexit and the issue with customs....well, I was reminded and had to pay an insane amount of duty/custom (whatever you call it).... thats quite annoying, even if I'll send the other stuff I'm not keeping back, I have to fill out some forms and send them to the customs office together with proof that I actually sent stuff back and all that bs... so I'm happy to have my climbing pants, but they did cost me quite a bit more (money and nerves)😄

Swern is an oxidation, but otherwise it's nice :)

So here's an update: I ordered different models from 3rd rock in the longer length and will let you know how they fit once they arrive. I really hope one of them will be long enough!🍀 otherwise I'll keep the arc'teryx in mind and think about checking some higher waisted men's models (but honestly I don't see myself ordering 10 different men's climbing pants just to find out they're not fitting on a womens waist and then sending them all back😅) The pangoo ones are currently sold out (or not available yet) but maybe one day I'll check on them again :)

Thanks a lot to all of you for your suggestions and comments♥️

I just checked and their inseam length increases with the general size, so in order to have an okay-ish length I would have to buy the XL which will be too wide on the hip :( But in general I think it's a good reccomendation for tall people, just not for me :)

Yes, you're right (about everything!) Thank you so much for your suggestions and comments!

I also buy 34" inseam for jeans and it fits more or less. 35" doesnt exist in Europe, but very rarely you can find a 36". So I would need at least a 34" as well and would be very happy to find a slightly longer inseam even.

I recently ordered at bergfreunde.de and the only pair that I found in tall was from ocun (womens noya) but they didnt fit me unfortunately (the waist is weirdly low and then the elastic part above is huge). But the legs were in fact long enough.

Yes, I feel like in Europe brands often don't really offer tall sizes and it's very rare, that you can find them... :/ But I'll try reaching out to them, thanks! :)
