Well, the verdict is in. I received the 36″ long American Eagle Boyfriends Jeans that I got at a smoking $24.95 (now back up to $29.50).
Here is the summary:
Pros: The length of course, and the price for the length. Talk about rare! They come in long (34.5-35″) and X-Long (36″). I also like color of this “dark vintage” rinse. They are a little fitted through the thighs, but are not toooo tight for my athletic thighs like a lot of modern styles are. My thighs often feel like stuffed sausages when trying on the new cutesie jeans. But these are doable.
Cons: I like a bit of a low rise, but not the super low rise. No thanks on the drafty crack. While these aren’t dangerously low by today’s standards, they are just a bit low for my comfort zone. Also, they seem true to size through the hips & thighs, but gape at the waist. This is something I always struggle with. Maybe I’m built weird? If anyone shares this problem and knows of any great jeans that don’t gape, please tell me!
Verdict: While they are not perfect, I think these are well worth the $25-$30 price tag and are worth throwing on a belt to rectify a little gaping! I just may try American Eagle jeans again.

I wrote about American Eagle jeans a while ago. I was blown away because they were 36″ long and very inexpensive. Well, they’re even cheaper now. I just ordered this pair for $24.95. This is my first pair of AE jeans, so I’m not quite sure what to expect. I’ll report back when I get them.

These are not advertisements, just stores I've found online that cater to the vertically blessed!
Tall girls often have a larger foot size that local shops don't cater to. Here's a list of places you can find wider, larger shoe sizes.
