Old Navy's tall line is really good for the prices! All my jeans and a few of my shirts are from them, though I haven't bought anything longsleeve from them yet.
I've had mixed luck with Long Tall Sally – their sizing is really inconsistent, and returns are rough since they're not US-based. But the couple of items I've bought that have fit well have been nice!
My partner and I had gone through old Navy for pj pants around the holidays. It is good to know they have a tall section to scope out.
I've never seen stuff my size in-store, but online they have one of the more inclusive tall size ranges I've seen (a lot of brands assume that if you're tall you're super skinny, while Old Navy's tall line goes up to size 20).
