Could do with picking up a long t-shirt for gym classes.

Thrusters or stretching up leave my belly exposed, and leaning forward on a spin bike could have the arse crack exposed...

Any brands do this type of thing, or a particular style I should search for?

I did see some "crossfit" gear but couldn't figure out what was special about it, I assume better for a range of movement?

I doubt there is anything special about the cross fit branded stuff.

I'd search for long line t shirts.

You could search for clothing for tall men, being particularly tall doesn't always equate with being broad shouldered (being politically correct).

I've been using some Adidas Freelift t-shirts.

They're long, non-cotton (so they don't stick to you when sweating) and wick really well.

They're also buttons to buy and you can get them anywhere.

Ahh I'll look at Adidas freelift.

Found that nike do tall sizes that are 4.5cm longer, but otherwise the same size across the chest and with sleeve length adjusted proportionately.

Nike do a ‘tall’ fit on some t-shirts.

Edit; just read your post above, you were already aware of this!

No belly flashes. No butt crack flashes:

To close this out… bought an Adidas freelift t-shirt and it is better than my other regular Adidas top, definitely looser fit so I can see how it’s good for movement… however it’s not much longer i don’t think and the belly is still revealed when stretching.

Also got a Nike tall size (in my usual size) and it’s an absolute winner. Good couple of inches longer, arms to the ceiling, and no exposure. Same chest size but just longer. Apparently they scale up the sleeves too… they are perhaps a bit more flappy but not really noticeable.

Not sure if longer bodied but I'm 6"2 and wear some of the nike pro t-shirts underneath my gym t-shirt.
Manages to hide my belly a bit when working out!

Have a look at ASOS 4505 range, they used to do some like this. I wear their normal stuff and it’s all great.

Check on Asos under Longline category under t-shirt fit.
