I have a 37" inseam and am pretty thin (26 or 27-inch waist, depending). I would really like to find tights that fit me, but I’m pretty sure that even when a store says that their tights are "tall" sized, they mean people with a 34" or 35" inseam. I’m aware that my legs are insanely and annoyingly long.

So I’m wondering what the best size to buy tights in might be. Also, could I maybe get plus-sized tights, or are those made larger around, not just stretchier?

The last time I bought tights, I bought them a size up from what the back of the box said I should be wearing (I’m 5′8 and 120 lbs), and the crotch still went very close to my knees.

I am your same height and weight. I had the same problem growing up. You need tall length stockings/tights. Try getting your tights from this site.They specialize in tall girls/womens clothing and accessories. It is a British company, but they ship to the U.S

Also, Target has tall length stockings and tights. It’ll say "tall" on the package…just look on the back to make sure their measurments fit your other measurements like waist. Though, I wear a small/medium Tall!!
