Look at the Sitka Transverse and Rivers West wool....both are plenty long ....JMO

i've got a 2x traverse 1/4 zip w/thumb loops (help a lot)...that's one of the few that fits well and one of my favorite when it gets cold. i've got rivers west bibs and pants (both good pieces), but haven't tried any uppers. the bibs are very good at keeping warmth in and moisture out.

RW Apex is very lightweight but a very generous cut....their jackets and pants are the best thing I've used for duck or deer hunting......
