    SUPER-TALL guy needs to start dressing his age!

    SUPER-TALL guy needs to start dressing his age!

    I'm 6'6". The "high fashion" brands fit annoyingly well; Etro, Gucci, Prada, etc. all seem to be slim fit and have unusually long arms/inseams. Diors have 38" inseams that are supposed to stack a lot but on me are a pretty regular fit. Bit too pricey for everyday wearing, but they're a good...

    SUPER-TALL guy needs to start dressing his age!

    Get Ande Whall jeans, there's a pretty good variety of cuts and he can make inseams up to 44". I actually have two pair of Ande Whall jeans sitting in my closet. They've been there for probably 3 or 4 years, and I've never worn them. I ordered the wrong size, and sat on it too long. I see all...

    Don't do it! Business casual is typically a bland and uninspired style, devoid of character as if to ensure all employees look roughly the same. It creates an image that the collective is more important than the individual, and thus you are readily replaceable. Unless your life's goal is to work...

    I'm curious what are your dress shirt measurements? I'm 6'6" and find it hard to find shirts as it is... To be honest, I'm not sure what my dress shirt measurements are. I should probably sort that out soon though, since almost everyone I know (including myself) has recently got engaged...

    ...and I'll definitely look into the MTM options here on Style Forum. If I'm able to find the right person for the job, I'll be a customer for life!

    SUPER-TALL guy needs to start dressing his age!

    have you been to a store for men who are big & tall? The Big and Tall stores in my area cater to men who are taller than average (around 6'4-6'9) and approx 400lbs. So if I was a little shorter and way way fatter, I'd have no issues at all.

    SUPER-TALL guy needs to start dressing his age!

    what are the measurements of things that fit you well now? What kind if t-shirts do you wear, where do you buy them? give us your measurements other than inseam! Well, like I said, I've been relying for the past 10-12 years on off-the-rack hoodies and tshirts. I usually try on anywhere from XL...

    hello tall guy, my name is Bespoke. Please don't step on your tailor. There's no way I could afford more than one or two articles of bespoke clothing, unfortunately.

    SUPER-TALL guy needs to start dressing his age!

    www.rochesterclothing.com > these guys really have some nice pieces if you're very tall and not rake-thin. The Ralph Lauren pieces are especially nice, though expensive. Beyond that... Bespoke. If you expect to get ANYTHING off the rack at 7'1" outside of a few speciality joints, you're...

    SUPER-TALL guy needs to start dressing his age!

    I played basketball in university. I've moved on. And my inseam is 38....but it feels a bit short and I've never seen anything longer.

    SUPER-TALL guy needs to start dressing his age!

    So I recently turned thirty years old, and decided it's time to give up the jeans-tshirt-hoodie formula I've been following since highschool. I'm looking for a few key pieces to slowly steer my wardrobe towards business-casual, but there's one (extreme) catch.......I'm 7'1ft tall and quite thin...

    Clothing for taller guys

    I just wish Big and Tall stores realized that being really tall AND being really fat doesn't go hand-in-hand. Also, I played basketball in college. Wasn't really my thing.

    Clothing for taller guys

    Problem is, I am beyond 7ft tall so I need REALLY long stuff. Also, Gap and all that don't offer tall sizes in canada (where I live). My brother has an american apparel polo that's long enough and pretty slim, but I've heard some bad things about the quality of that company.

    Clothing for taller guys

    I've recently decided to start giving a damn about my appearance, and have a question for the taller guys in the forum.. Do you know of any brands that cater to those of above-average height, but who aren't really wide? I'm looking for primarily tshirts, polos, sweaters, etc. I'm set for jeans...
