I would also recommend The North Face Momentum Fleece for something that is a little longer and fitted. It is also a "hard face" fleece, with lots of stretch, so a nice change from traditional fleece. Hope this helps

Forgot to add that this Pharak jacket fits the bill too: warm (TKA 300 - same as Khumbu) and long enough (25.5 inches b. l.). Anyway, i didn't suggest the Momentum like Dave did 'cos i'm not sure if the Momentum's TKA Superstretch fleece would be warm enough (its modified for added stretch-use?). TNF has a range of active fleeces like the Borealis jacket that aren't heavy fleece types; just right for active use. Hence my list of fleeces that range from TKA 200-300 / Polartec 300.

Hi. i am gathering u need it as a warmth jacket, judging from the fact that you prefer fleece, u like your Khumbu (25.5 inches back length, built with TKA 300 fleece weight which is very warm) and that the Windwall 1 is too short (24 inches back length). Here's five choices, hope this helps you decide better! (Btw i am NOT a TNF rep...!) 1. Pumori jacket - fleece, Polartec 200 (not as warm as Khumbu but lighter), 26 inches back length - One of the "staple" mid-layers, beside the Khumbu. 2. Denali jacket - fleece, Polartec 300 (as warm as Khumbu, if not warmer), 26 inches b. l. - Very common jacket, but try the new color schemes (White heather). 3. Solar Flare jacket - knitted fleece (as warm as Khumbu), 26 inches b. l. - A new product from TNF, with nice textures. 4. Osito Jacket - silken fleece (not as warm as Khumbu), 25.5 inches b. l. - The silken fleece has a luxurious feel to it. 5. TKA 200 Kimber Full Zip - fleece (TKA 200 - not as warm as Khumbu), back length NOT KNOWN, unfortunately - This is great where budget is concerned. U can try to check with TNF live assistant (like a live chat).
