    where do you big guys shop???

    I know i'm a girl starting this thread....but for my guy's sake.....
    Doesn't it seem like alot of the clothes for men these days are made for the tall skinny types... like Abercrombie? What buff bb guys can fit into that stuff?

    So where do the you guys with the swole chests go to shop? And I don't just mean for the super tight shirts that hug your muscles but even just for comofort??

    I can pretty much shop any place. I bought a bunch of coloured T-shirts from Champs a little while ago because they were 5 for $30. Just get XXL thats all.
    I just avoids places like Gap, abercrombie, club monaco etc. Pretty much I avoid anything preppy because they are always fitted too small.
    Sean Jean makes great t-shirts for bigger guys, they fit amazing. Definitely a favourite.

    ya most sport type stores (ie. footlocker, champs) have large comfortable t-shirts. i'd have to disagree w/ banana republic tho. bought an XL jacket there and it probly won't last me a year if I put on the weight im looking to. im 6ft, 200lbs, and it was already pretty snug when i bought it when i weighed 185

    I cant stand abercrombie and places like that...they'll have a XXL and I'll be like oo it'll fit.then its all skin tight

    Most other places are fine..XL/XXL shirts seem to all be sized right

    I am a collard shirt and jeans or cargo shorts kind of guy. I like regular khaki shorts with no cargos as well, but rarely ever find a pair that fit my legs/ass or that are long enough...I heard old navy has some good ones though. I have foudn that the polo collard shirts fit well in XXL for me, but the sleeves are very snug around my arms and it makes it a little uncomfortable. Their T-shirts fit PEFECT though and same with their cargo shorts. I started shopping at the tommy hilfiger outlet and their collard shirts fit PERFECT in XXL I am 6'1" 230-240lbs...pretty lean too. I have a lot more trouble with pants and jeans, they are hard to find...especially khaki and dress pants, I usually have to buy my jeans in the "baggy" version (which arent baggy on me) and about one size too big around the waste to get them to fit my legs/ass comfortably.

    I never have problems with clothes fitting but I only buy "urban wear" like Kani, Sean Jean, Ecko, Enyce, Pelle Pelle, G-Unit, etc. I always buy XXL because it's more comfortable but even an XL will fit me and I'm 6'1" 120kg+.

    I find it hard to find T-shirts that fit me! I have a small frame but Im a big guy so I cant go with a regular XL t-shirt or it looks like a bag...lol I buy Slim fit T's and get XL...perfect fit! they dont seem to be as long and they hang nice on my body! They also fit my shoulder perfectly! which looks amazing in a T shirt!

    If your a big guy Hurly has some really nice Slim fit T's that seem to be made for jaked guys lol they just hang really well on the body!

    I find it really hard to find jeans though! My legs are massive and I always have to go a size or two larger then what I am and get a wide leg jean which I hate! I dont like the look of wide leg jeans! wish I could find some nice jeans!
