I can't understand the problem. I'm 6'3" and I have plenty of headroom. The Z fits me perfectly.

Dude, not everyone has the same body build. If you found 10 other people who were 6'3", and stood them all side by side, you will see different variations to achieve the height of 6'3".

- Some will have have shorter legs
- " " ...longer legs
- " " ...longer torso
- " " ...longer neck
- " " ...long/bigger head
- etc, etc...

My neighbor and I are the same height, 6'2". Yet, when we stand side by side, my hip is a good 2-3 inches higher than his. I have long legs. Anything short of a pant size 34, and they are high waters for me.

Do you put your hand in the back pocket of his cut-offs when you rub hips with your neighbor?
