Tall Personal Shopper: Soccer Shorts for Tall Thin Guy

I received a request to try and help find some longer length soccer shorts for a tall teen. He is 6'4" tall and has a 32" waist.

Soccer shorts generally do not have a long length.  The longest inseam I can find are about a 10", which is not very long. I hope I'm not off base, but I suggest you go with basketball shorts.  I think it's better to have longer shorts to avoid the "bird legs look", then to have the so called "soccer shorts". The basketball shorts have longer inseams and look similar to many styles of soccer shorts.  Here are some I suggest:
Hoop Shorts
 Hoop Shorts 12" inseam

Rose adizero Tech Shorts

adiPower Dwight Howard Shorts
Pro Model 3 Hype Shorts
Nike - Hustle Short (Black/White/White) - Apparel
Nike - Hustle Shorts 11" inseam

Nike - Spike 11 Short (Black/Anthracite/Reflective Silver) - Apparel

Dress Shirt for a Tall Teen

Today I received an email from a parent looking for a tall white dress shirt for a tall teen. The measurements needed are 14.5 inch neck by 36 or 37 inch sleeves. There are not many choices available in ready made clothing. The best option is to design your own custom made shirt from Lands' End. Custom made dress shirts start at $49. Neck sizes start at 14 inches and can be as large as 20 inches. Sleeve lengths vary from 29 inches to 40 inches long. I hope this helps!
