i posted a picture in the "WAYWT" thread a few days back. if anyone remembers my picture, you'll remember that i'm bigger and taller than most other men. that's where the problem is. i'm not just wider, but i'm also taller with longer arms and legs. as you can probably imagine, this has become pretty annoying in recent years (especially trying to find shirts in reasonable colors) and i just dont know what to do. i dont have money to get shirts made to fit me yet (as i'm a college student). does anyone have advice for me? thanks in advance.

Try . They specialize in clothing for large (not just fat) men.

Sorry, I'm not sure if I remember your post, but depending on how big and tall you might be, other than MTM or bespoke, big and tall shops should have what you want. Rochester big and tall that has on-line, catalog and stores that could probably help you. The only problem with Big and Tall is that you'll pay more for an item than you would in standard sizing. Rochester isn't cheap, but it should be less than MTM or bespoke.

A less costly alternative might be J C Penney or Sears as they have expanded sizes. While their merchandise is not very desireable, it is inexpensive.

i would try one of the more reasonably priced custom shirtmakers like jantzen. even though they are custom, they would still be cheaper than any decent extended size shirts off the rack.

End of season sales at rochester would be worth looking at. Allen edmonds shoes from STP or similar sites would also be worth looking into.

I just recently posted something about this myself, view the thread at https://askandyaboutclothes.com/community/showthread.php?p=802254 If you're not in a rush it looks like you can get shirts from mytailor.com for under a hundred, which given that something from nordstroms costs $50 and up or $70 from brooks brothers, seems pretty reasonable.

thanks for suggesting jantzen to me. i will order a shirt from them, Lord willing.
