There are many issues that only tall girls face: people commenting on how tall you are, the lack of leg room, standing out in a crowd and the dreaded issue of finding clothes that fit! Whether it's going into a store and realizing they don't carry your size or having to sacrifice style just to get the right length, Tall Size is on a mission to connect tall women to brands who create products with them in mind. Threads products recently launched on Tall Size and we had a chance to ask them some questions about their mission.   1 . What inspired the launch of Tall Size? Cold wrists and ankles were what originally inspired Nicole Murphy to reach out to her long-time friend, Kayla Alexander and propose that they co-create and develop a virtual shopping platform for tall women called Tall Size. Around this time last year, while out for a walk with her dog, Nicole felt frustrated by the inadequate length of her coat sleeves, and was regretting her choice of footwear which left her ankles exposed to the elements. “My pants and sleeves were always too short and while I was walking that day, I kept thinking that there’s got to be a better way to find clothing that actually fits. I am six feet tall and I thought of Kayla, who is 6 feet 4. If I was having this problem at six feet tall, I figured she must be as well.” Nicole saysNicole called Kayla as soon as she got home from that walk.   What are some barriers that taller women face when shopping? 1. Fashion industry caters to the average woman who stands at 5'6, this means most clothing is too short (inseams, sleeve lengths, torso length, dress length, etc) and shoes often only go up to a size 10. 2. Inseams typically are 28-30
