Activewear help!!

Hello all,
I'm 5'10", 168lbs and a 36D. I'm not a big fan of racer back bras or shirts (bras are SO hard to get off and on!) so I like to wear short sleeve semi-fitted technical/dry fit shirts when I work out. My problem is, I can't find shirts long enough! I do Pilates/megaformer and I find myself constantly adjusting and tugging on my shirt. I searched the web for long/tall workout gear and came up empty handed. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm probably asking for a lot but I don't want to spend an arm and a leg for a workout shirt. Less than $50 would be great!
Thanks in advance!

You might check Costco - they have some workout gear with the Kirkland label, and I've found that their shirts tend to be really long. I actually returned the first one I bought because it was too long for me.
Other than that, maybe look for yoga specific tops? Seems like they tend to be a bit longer in length. Try TJ Maxx, Marshall's, Kohls, or Old Navy.
Good luck - I hope you can find what you need!0 -
There are some tshirts here: http://www.express.com/clothing/Apparel/Tees+and+Tanks/cat/cat1040033?pageNumber=1&viewAll=true
I find when doing things like pliates and yoga that my shirt will constantly need adjusting if it is too loose.0 -
Have a look in some walking/hiking shops - they tend to have active wear but sometimes more practical. I have some long sleeve tops from Rab which I wear for climbing as I'm stretching up all the time. As for crop tops look for ones with front fastening maybe?0

I don't like to wear tight exercise clothing but all my t-shirts would slide up and the neck would fall over my face in yoga. I bought two t-shirts from the Gap's Pure Body line that have a bit of stretch and stay in place around my hips so I'm not constantly adjusting.0

Check out Moving Comfort bras. They have a couple bras that fit just like regular bras, with the back clasp. I think they run about $56 actually but hopefully it'll be worth the investment!0
