Have You Ever Tried Buying Tall Men's Jeans?

I'm tall and thin, and yes, I did used to play semi-professional basketball! Since my teens, I've been struggling to find clothes that fit me - let alone, clothes that I like that fit me.

Tall jeans have all the time been a singular problem

Men Jeans

I know I'm not alone. If you're tall and thin - or have tried to buy clothing for man who is tall and thin - you'll know how difficult it is to find clothes that fit in general retail outlets. Even the devotee shop rarely deliver the goods because the equate 'tall' with 'big'. So, when jeans or trousers are long enough, they can have folds of extra fabric just where you don't want it.
They look horrible, and so do I.

Then things get even more bizarre, with some not-so-extreme inside leg measurements being particularly difficult to find. If you have an inside leg measurement in the middle of 33 and 38-inches, you may be worse off than if you're 38-inch plus.

There's so exiguous selection for the tall man

We're told so many times that modern retail is about selection - but not if you're tall and thin. I'm sure you've been relieved to find a shop that stocks your size, only to find that there's the selection of just one pair of jeans, and ordinarily in the most boring style conceivable.

Style hardly comes into it. Where are the right cut, boot cut and (fashionably) loose fit styles? Not to mention stonewash, dark and light denim. If you can find them in your local high road or mall, please let me know.

So where do you buy jeans for tall men?

A few years ago, I resorted to regular trips to the Us, just to buy clothes. I found places that gave me some selection and style, but it was hardly favorable and had the small question of the voyage and room costs, plus the stress on my credit cards as I tried to buy all the clothes I needed for the advent months.

Nowadays, though, there's the Internet. Although most vendors still talk 'big and tall', there are a small amount of specialists focused on the needs of tall thin men and women. At last, we have some selection of properly fitting clothes without having to make a trip abroad or find a mail order business willing to ship to Europe - and having to pay Customs charges.

At last there's some real selection - of clothes that most people will feel indubitably good in - without trekking halfway across the world and causing heart seizure when your credit card bill arrives!
