I'm now 240 at 5'11 and heading down to what I think will be a competition weight of 225. I'm not huge but I have a 18.5-19" neck and similar arms and currently a 33" waist. I'm trying to get away from xxl urban type clothing that I've either been getting tailored or kind of swimming in.
Any companies that make shirts with bigger necks and slimmer waists? Low key and not douchey with barbells and hot body **** lol. Mid cut sleeves? I like looking semi-swole...
What do you guys wear?
I cant buy a 17" dress shirt without it looking like a boat sail. Tailoring might be your only option.
i do my clothes shopping on the women's side of the store

Any guy who can fit into Abercrombie and Fitch clothing cannot call themselves big or even bigger than average.
That shit is for boys.

lol love it....so true!
gasp and champion have 3XL AND 2XL that are a bit smaller in the waist. thats all i wear now. there's either really tight gay shirts. or a little over sized 3xL shirt that is atleast comfy.

Maxwell's Clothier :)
The tailor come to town 4 times a year and a package arrives from Hong Kong.
3 dress shirts for 135 and they fit.
Pants are a little more expensive but affordable and again they fit.
This has been my source for work clothes for the last 10 years.

Im not quite ironwills size but I find shopping for clothes as a bigger guys is actully cheaper and easier. My favorite thing to do it hit designer stores places like Underground, Urban, Paradox, Henry inbetween seasons they always have tons of xl,xxl stuff left over which you can pickup cheap since most designer stores dont sell many xl,xxl shits but they still stock em.

Well he said he's 240 at 5'11". When outta competition mode that's only 15-20 lbs heavier than me so being that we're the same height I can kinda relate. No, I may not have your stature but I have a build that differs quite an extent from most nonetheless.
If you can fit into A&F you are not big.
I'm sorry to say but it's true.
I'm not talking about waist either. I'm talking about chest/shoulders/arms. an XL would normally fit a L but they make their clothes small on purpose... to make skinny wannabe ****s think they're big.
"I wear an XL but my waist is only 30". I'm ****in elite! Oh and my legs are huge too - rollin on 20's..."

.. nvm
I'm perturbed by the buck 50 dicks who wear an XL A&F shirt who have a chip on their shoulder because they're now wearing big boys clothes.
I am not perturbed by you.
Stop being so defensive. Estrogen a little high? :D

your legs can fit in those brands?

None of those are even close to possible for me to get over my legs even if the waist is 6 inches to big. Walmart is the only place I've found lately with a relaxed fit that I can wear. Waist is only about 2" to big. I'm told Mark's work warehouse has some big boy jeans but wally world's jeans are $20 bucks a pair and that's kind of hard to beat. With all the Hockey playes in Canada you would think big legged jeas would be easier to find.

Mexx has XXL shirts still. The only thing that sucks is the necks aren't that roomy on the button ups.

lol looks that way... I started with it in 2006 and I didn't know you had it though bro, I swear.
And yeah I don't know what I was looking for with this thread... Just get all my shirts tailored I guess, maybe try a polo. Its really been the damn neck thats the problem with button-ups-- And Im having a rough time finding a job thats not in a warehouse or to do with security... and I'm just talking low-tier part-time stuff. Trying to look 'softer' and less like a meathead lolz. That could be a whole other thread though...
i need new shirts to fit my dbol inflated upper body, ill be checking out le chateau
thanks IW

At 5'11" and over 300 lbs, the only clothes I can find and afford is Walmart - even then, I still have a hard time finding 3 and 4x. Some of my jackets are 5x. Finding pants is next to impossible. Maybe I should take up golfing...

Ha! It must really suck to be taller and jacked when it comes to buying clothing. I am only 5'4 and even at my heaviest, I can still find clothing that fits.
