ho hum. at 6'1" i am too tall for tights. i guess i will keep walking around with my orange crotch at my knees until i can find us some longer ones... if you have any tips, please send them my way. i know DKNYs run long, but they are still a bit too short for me.
oh, hey! wait! sock dreams didn't tell me i could express my outer amazon with these crazy wonder women tights! queen size fits 5'7" - 6'2" 150-200 lbs. hmm, halloween...
