Bibs for tall guys

[ls1togo]

I have a friend who is 6'5" (not my problem!) ..he has bought a number of premium bibs and has had a a lot of difficulty with the straps being too short!
So, tall guys out there...what are your suggestions for a solution?...Is there anyone who makes "tall" versions?
thanks

I'm 6'4" and the good folks at Boure have made me a number of pairs of bibs that fit perfectly. The custom upcharge is nominal and the fit is just right.

Another vote for Boure. Even the stock sizes are pretty good on long torsos.

Black Bibs have tall bibs and I can confirm they are tall!

I'm 6'3" and will agree with the Black Bibs in tall. Another recent purchase I made is Ale bike wear. So far, so good.

6’4 here. Rapha makes a long bib, they fit well in size large for me but I’m relatively slender. For reference my weight has fluctuated between 175-200 in the past few years and these have handled that well.

Aerotech has tall sizes, reasonably priced.

I have a pair of aerotech lrg tall bibs (6'5" 195lbs) and they work great, going to order another pair in the near future. I have xl Rapha classics, but dont get on well with them, also wear some xlg Assos (s5 or s7?) that I really like the fit on the bike, but they feel just a little short strap-wise when walking/standing. The aerotech bibs are my go to pair for MTB rides, whereas for road rides it's more 50/50 split with the Assos.

7mesh uses straps that are super stretchy so that torso length is not really a factor in their sizing. I’m 6’4 205 and wear a large.

Shorts! #freetheshoulders

In all seriousness, I don't understand the enduring appeal of bibs.

I used to be the opposite and couldn't understand why anyone would wear them, now bibs are all I wear. One contributing factor is that jersey lengths are shorter now and I would be mooning everyone, plus I found a few brands that work for my longer torso.

For reference I am 6'3 hovering at 200 lbs with a long torso and have good luck with biemme, donkey label and ok fit with eliel. All have super stretchy suspenders that work for me.

Plus 1 on Aerotech. I’m 6’3” ish and 170lbs. Wear a medium tall from aerotech and love it. Recently also bought a $40 pair of Black Bibs in Large and liked them, but found them short. I didn’t know they did a long cut and I’ll check that out.

Based on the recommendation here I ordered a black bibs long cut and, after one long trainer ride, I’m impressed! This was my second order from black bibs and they ship instantly (same day) and they may be my new go to company. I think the materials has more compression than Aerotech and, at least initially, I like the chamois more. Durability remains TBD but the they seem well made.
