Cathro Extensions | Chili Peppers

I am 6’2” and have yet to find a pair of mtb pants that don’t ride up my legs. I bought a couple of these, took them to my local seamstress and now the pants stay where they are supposed to. I highly recommend this item! They keep the pant leg snug at the ankles and they are barely noticeable.

This is the first time I have been able to get MTB pants that fit. The extensions allowed me to make a medium extra extra long. I hope they continue to make these and hopefully in additional colors so I can get more pants.

Trousers long enough for the taller rider are almost impossible to find, so the Cathro Extensions are a very welcome development, and were enough to prompt the move to Dharco for pants. The final result looks great, like they were straight from the shop, and my 6’6” kiddo now has MTB pants that reach his ancles. However, because the extensions come as a pre-sewn tapered tube of the same dimensions as the ancles of the too-short trousers they are to be added to, in order to attach them at the correct length, it was necessary to deconstruct and re-sew two overlocked, top-stitched seams so the seams would match up with the rest of the pants. It would have been way less work if the extensions arrived with at least one open seam, or as pieces of fabric to be trimmed and assembled as needed by the end user.

What a great investment in long legged people. I told my mate I had my pants lengthened with these and he’s never done this. He’s a short stuff. Lol. For those pelicans in the world, this is the best. Thanks

I love the fit of my pants but unfortunately they are too short. I’m so happy these extensions are available. However, I am disappointed because I am only 5’3”. If this was a manufacturing flaw I hope they fixed it because I will not purchase pants again knowing they will need to be mended.
