Best Hockey Pant Fit for Tall Sizes?

[riverine17 3]

I'm looking to find a hockey pant in a tall size (specifically Medium Tall) that fits close to the body. I've been to all of my LHS and no tall sizes are in stock. I am 6'2" 180lbs and my current pants are way to short. I like my pants to have a close fit and not be to baggy, since I can't try and on does anyone have any suggestions? I am currently looking at the Bauer Supreme One80 MT and the Warrior Koncept MT... Thanks in advanced!

You can get pretty much any size tackla in a "long" pant.

Never worn a Tackla pant, how do they fit? Run large/small/true to size? Tight or loose fit?

[Chadd 916]

Tight at the waist, loose in the legs. Fit is pretty accurate to the sizing guide, hard to recall what they were like new, mine are 8 years old. Zippers are an option, if you want them, make sure you specifically order them that way.

Have to agree with Chad here. Anytime length is an issue, Tackla is the way to go.

One80 only gives 1 inch extra. I'm same height/weight as you. I found some +2 pro stocks that fit great. Check out the Tacklas & Warrior Franchises for +2. The Projekts may be extra long as well.

Any website recommendations for Tackla?

I know discount hockey, hockeymonkey & hockey tron carry Tackla.

I'm 6'5" and use the +2 tacklas and they work great for myself. I don't play contact anymore so the 951's work great for rec league.

I'd say hockeygear is the best place to go in terms of choice. decent prices too..

I'd have to agree with Chad there, I've had my EXPP-55's for almost 2 years now and they fit as Chad said. I'm 6'2" and as standard my tackla's are reasonably long but I did get the option to get them longer when I orderd mine.

I got mine from here http://www.hockeyplusinc.com/motaair90srh.html

Thanks for everything, I ordered the Tackla 951 Tall (+2) and they just came in the mail. Tried them on and they fit awesome! Snug to the body around my kidneys/waist and go down to the top of my kneecap. Can't wait to get on the ice with them and break them in. Thanks for the suggestion!

Glad to hear they look like they will work. I'm always a bit nervous when I give advice, not knowing the preferences of the guy that will be using it.

Really glad they worked out for you. Like Chadd said, sometimes hard judging just based on the Internet.

Sorry I should Specify...

I have Old Finish Tacklas. not the North American Ones.

You will really like these pants, they will feel nice and broke in first time out there.

I'm looking into the ONE80 tall pants now, so does that mean a Medium-Tall pants is the same length as say a regular Large? And Large-Tall same length as a pair of XL pants?
