So as posted here on geekzone, I am now equiped with a stoma a little to the left of my belly-button and have to wear a urostomy bag (for the wee!).

The stoma placement is roughly where I may have normally had my belt line, so I (190cm tall - around size 34-36 waist) am looking for extra length shirts that come down nice and low. These actually seem pretty hard to find. I find polo shirts can be a little 'crop top' like at the best of times - so any suggestions where I could find extra length ones would be good too.

Longer tops would mean I could have the ostomy bag over my waist belt ( wearing my pants a bit lower) and the bag would be hidden by the longer top.

AND/OR anyone know of any higher waisted jeans/trousers/shorts that might sit higher than normal - Maybe it might be possible for the whole bag to go underneath the pants.

AI worth a try? Can't do any harm to ask. It is amazing what it can dig up!

Thanks - Yes I tried AI.

I was hoping maybe someone had some personal experience/suggestions.

I saw they had some extra length T's. There is apparently a thing called 'longline' shirts/T-shirts that are purposely extra long.

Found that The Warehouse/Kmart also may have these in stock - will check them out.

Yes, was in Kmart yesterday, and passed these longline tshirts, they looked to be really long.

Carhartt bibs? I’d love an excuse to wear these all the time (with respect to your situation)

Hah! No offence taken.

These would be excellent and look really comfy. But would look a bit odd wearing them all the time.

I feel you would need to carry an axe all the time as justification for wearing them :-)

Managed to venture out this morning and hunted around and found some at Kmart. They are decently long so bought several. They will be helpful I think.
