I am 14 (170cm) and have great difficulty finding clothing for me as I am long limbed and skinny.

Do any of you have similar experiences or suggestions.

Worth trying race fit kit from most brands I’d have thought though.

As someone 195cm tall, I wondered where this perceived long limbedness came from (I’ve been >180cm since I was 14) B-) Although I’m more of a prop-forward than beanpole.

Only advice I have is to keep looking – you’ll find eventually find some that suits – took a while for me to find a brand who has at least a model that corresponds with my body shape.
