    I don't know if my DP is considered "big" but hes an XXL t shirt and 38-40 pants. He only wears metal shirts which he either gets online or from concerts otherwise he wears plain collared t shirts from either best and less or most recently the puma outlet store in DFO. He has a few 'going out' shirts which he got from YD and man to man. His pants he gets from jay jays, jeans west or other outlet stores in DFO. He is very particular about what brands he wears, he wouldn't be caught dead wearing anything from target, kmart or big w He only buys clothes if he DESPERATELY needs them so only has a handful of pants and maybe 10 t shirts and i think 2 going out shirts.

    Edited the thread title to clarify a sizing 3XL and up.

    Many of us would dream about being able to shop at every day stores in the upper end of the normal range, as opposed to the limited "Mr Fatty" range if they so happen to have one.

    Trav - yeah that would be just as frustrating.

    Professor is generally a 4-6 XL, and we generally get his stuff at Target - rarely on special :/ He doesn't normally have trouble finding something to buy for casual, but more formal shirts are a problem, 44 seems to sell out fast. Luckily we don't need to shop often for him!

    Yes! big necked shirts sell out so quick. And tell me why they make the big necked shirts (DH is a 48) but they don't make the cuffs larger too? DH can never do the cuffs up!
