Tall Women's Running Tights UK

Where on earth do you taller ladies get your running tights in the UK?

I am 5'11 and can't seem to find any that are long enough. I have tried asics (based on a recommendation) and addidas but they all seem to come up a little short (just above my ankle bone and rise a little whilst running). As we are going back into the cooler days and nights I am going to have to go back into the longer tights and would like to get some nice colourful women's tights rather than wearing the men's ones that I was using last winter (stolen from my partner).

I have done numerous searches on google but despite trying every combination I can think of it only gives me regular length tights.

Your advice/help would be much appreciated.

    I have some nike ones that are long on me - though I am only 5ft5 so they still may not be long enough for you.

    Probably not, I may have to resort to buying longer socks just to keep my ankles warm :smiley:

    My USA Pro long tights have extra at the ankle, maybe two or three inches but again, I'm only 5'5 so maybe not enough!

    Sainsburys Tu range is great for there workout bottoms. I'm around 5'10 and they actually go to my ankles!
