Is this like the opposite end of the spectrum?  Is this the skinny jeans for ice fishing?  LOL

I'll have to see if I have a local retailer for Eskimo that carries the scout.  I'll check out the others too.

My problem is that I usually order XL because of the added length.  I'm 6'4".  So, if there was a company out there with Tall sizes, I'd do a Large Tall.  So if one of the manufacturers have a large that is long enough, I think that would probably be the best bet.

The lower cuffs on the bibs on striker gear are adjustable to accommodate a size large on someone that is tall.

You should add your location to your profile ...could be a retailer or a deal near by or a Ice Shanty member may be close and you could have a meet for sizing . Striker ice makes tall sizes .

I just purchased a Simms heavy insulated raingear for this same reason, plus cold rain. I would say there about 1/3 the weight of a Clam suit. They were on Sale from Fish USA at X-mas for 40% off. So far they are great had em out at 20 Degrees with light winds. Re-enforced knees. Great buy so far!

I'm in the greater Milwaukee area.  Just updated my location.  I guess I never even looked at that!
