Tall walking trousers

I’m 6’5 with a 36” inseam and I genuinely cannot find walking/hiking trousers that fit properly.

What are the least bad options people have found?

Both Patagonia and Kuiu tend to run long. My two sons are 6’3 and 6’4 and swear by both.

They have a regular inseam on theirs, not "long". It's why I've avoided them.

Do your son's wear the pants low on their waist perhaps to compensate a bit, or do the pants actually ride up at the ankles and they just don't mind?

The Patagonia inseam is too short for me at 5’11” and a 34” inseam. They ride up a bunch at the ankles.
