I’m 6’2” but I only have a 30” inseam (long torso).

Sounds like you'd be perfect for Blue Blue Japan size 4, EG size L, etc. I wear those sizes, but I think I'm 1-2" too short for a lot of it (I'm 6'0"). And to be fair to you, Evan Kinori fits very weirdly IMO. Really short and boxy, so tough to pull off IMO.

@#dadcore i wasn’t a teenager in the 90’s but for the whole of 1997 and for a good chunk of 98 i frequently wore big tees and big cargo pants which could also be shorts via knee zippers. point being, i looked incredible.

anyway i have sort of a similar problem/opportunity re: weird bod. i have short legs and wide hips, and i’ve found that pants with wider hems are the answer. anything loose tapered or slim actually makes me look shorter for some reason.

Hmm...I think I get the pickle you're in, as I'm often in a similar one as a fellow long-torso (OK, I may have overstretched the metaphor). I often have difficulty sizing because stuff is either too small or fits like a bag. I default to the latter, but recently bought an EG Bedford that is a little too much of a "perfect fit" (i.e. too small) for me.

Edit: what's your height?
+1 for clothing that fits either too short or too wide :(

I’m 6’3 and wear Bedford in size M and Loiter in size L. The former goes with fitted pants, the latter with the looser ones

@chameshi_nampa great mix here, love how you've incorporated vintage into a techwear fit

@mistrfluffy this is pretty much a clone fit of everything else you've posted here. The beanie looks cheap, the PSI between the geos + pants is always off to a point where the bottom half looks clownish. I don't mean to come off as rude but it doesn't seem like folks have been giving you feedback.
