Greetings all -- this is my first Styleforum post. Have been an occasional lurker here for a couple years. I'm a tall guy in my early thirties looking to make better clothing choices.
I lean toward a classic American style but have a tricky time finding clothing/shoes in my size. I'm 6'6", wear a 16.5/38 shirt, 44xl suit, 36x36 pant, and 16c shoe. Ouch. For many years my closet has been filled with shirts about an inch too short in the sleeve. No longer--one of my 2011 resolutions was to stop buying clothing that didn't fit me. To that end, I've had a couple oxfords made to measure and hope to purchase a few more later this year.
Normally, I love buying things at thrift or used shops, but rarely find anything in my size. If anyone here is looking to dump a boatload of gorilla-armed shirts, let me know!
Best,
Bjorn
