What part of clothe shopping annoys you most? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

As a 6'2 man the clothes I find which are right for my height are often very loose on me. And if I worry about the waist I look like a kid who grew a lot in the past 2 months and everything is too short for me.

Its not entirely universal, some stores are better than others. And I wear a lot of loose casual t-shirts so thats fine too. But finding dress shirts means some places work, some don't.

Have you found any "Tall" sizes? I used to need 2XLT, and I know they make "smaller" sizes like that.

Indeed, I do look for the tall sizes when I'm buying dress shirts. I generally have no problem there. It's more with casual wear where there is not enough choice.

A lot of department stores will have a big and tall section shoved in a corner somewhere, but I usually have to order my actual size online after trying on the regular sizes.
