I use a Coloplast SenSura Mio Flex High Output transparent ostomy pouch. It's pretty long—about 14.5 inches (37 cm).
I would like to find a presentable pouch cover but haven't found one large enough for my pouch. Folding the pouch so that it fits in a regular-size cover reduces the effective size of the pouch, and I'd like to avoid that.
I would like to hear how other people with large pouches handle this problem.

Hi.. I use the same setup.. the mio. Click.
But I don't waste time with a bag cover. Mine is opaque..
I understand you wanting to cover up the clear transparent bag.
Most here feel the same way.. it's a waste.. but duly noted, in your case, for obvious reasons.
now, if you're talking about a support cover like a belt, or wrap, that's a whole new ball game.

Every morning when I enjoy my big cup of coffee I scroll through this site and this warm feeling just overwhelms me.
I never post anything (too shy and it feels like I don’t have anything of interest to share tbh) but I sure read a lot of posts from you guys and they are so informative, supportive encouraging and so so full of love and a big dose of humor.
I feel like part of the best family in the world (even though I am just sitting quietly in the corner lol).
I just wanted to share that feeling and say thanks to all of you for being so wonderful.
And also, please keep some fingers crossed for me this week. I have my blood test on Thursday, checking my CA 125 levels. Ovarian cancer reoccurrence fear unlocked again. I hate it!
Lots of love from Sweden

Could you make your own? You could start a trend. Maybe sell a few.

G-Day Warrior,
Reminds me of the couple that went to a fancy dress ball as a cow in a cow outfit. He was at the front, and she was at the back.
As the place where the ball was was so close, they decided to take a shortcut across the fields, and as they were walking, the wife noticed a bull running towards them.
"There's a bull rushing towards us. What should we do?" he says. "Well, I'm going to put my head down and look as if I am eating grass, but you had better brace yourself."
