tall size cammo?

[Spanz]

I was pissed that KTP does not have ANY tall sized cammo coats.

I need a new goretex type waterproof outer shell, for when I am out all day in Colorado getting snowed on in the mountains. I need the tall size to keep my belly from getting exposed.
anyone have an online source that is good and cheap?

I was about to pull the trigger on this shell:

$175 sounds like a lot for a simple shell though

Cabelas offers alot of their hunting clothing in tall sizes.

That MT050 gore-tex stuff is loud. They advertise it as quiet but when you ruffle it you can hear the liner crunching and crinkling.

What about mil surplus? They have longer sizes. My parka goes past my waist and I'm 6'1.

I have some True Spec that that is perfect. You can purchase the polar fleece jacket/liner that goes with the coat, if desired, also. The multi cam is more expensive @ $175 coat/$125 pants, but the basic colors run around $125 coat/$75 pants.

The whole spectrum of sizes, including long.

This is what I have:

http://www.keepshooting.com/french-army-mvp-cce-parka.html . They also sell a fleece polar jacket that works well underneath. This thing is BIG on me .... would work for a tall person with ease! I used it last winter as shell and it worked fine.

In outer wear in the field, you really get what you pay for IMHO. I know the stuff can be $$$, but the $$$ stuff functions flawless and is really waterproof! Otherwise you are wet and you complain. YMMV.

thanks guys, I will check them all out.

its kind of a shame, I have nice goretex shells, but I guess they do not last forever since last year they were soaking thru. I tried the nikwax cleaner too, but it did not fix it. Nothing like keeping dry no matter what is blowing in your face all day long!

http://chiefsupply.com/ is having a 20% off sale, which includes the TruSpec items I listed prior, with promo code OFFAPP20. Plus, I believe that's off the sale price which is already lower now, than when I posted.

FWIW, Marshalls in North Hampton, NH had quite a bit of camo on the racks today.
