Calling All Tall Men............

POSTED BY: bitseylango 2 weeks, 6 days ago

.......where the hell do you buy your clothes from???

My OH desperately needs some new clothes (my opinion, not his) and I cant just walk into Tesco/Asda/High St Stores, simply due to his size. I have spent the last hour and half trawling the net for low priced T-shirts, polo shirts, rugby shirts, hoodies and jeans for him but to no avail :O(

He is 6ft 5" with a 50" chest. His inside leg is only 34", therefore its his body length that is the problem when buying tops. Any of you tall uns give me some ideas ???
