What up kiddos? Well heres the deal, for christmas my girl took care of me & bought me a couple things from our local boutique defineREAL and GCS.....and everything she got me fit ok .....well almost everything lol. Im 6'2" and around 160lbs and for some reason, for the life of me cant find ____ that will fit my body style. I usually purchase shirts in M/L (depending on the company) but most of the time...(for me) its hit or miss. Most of the time the problem is that the shirts are to short and small(even in large) and wide for heavier set ppl.....and its not like i can opt for an XL to fit my length cause then itll look like im wearing a moo moo hahahahaha. This year she got me the Russel Coat from Orisue cause she knows im a fan of there designs and i was effing ____ed that it didnt fit. she got it in XL and was hella short and fit like a muffintop at the bottom hahahaha. IDK what to do......is it just me or does anyone else have this problem?

Yeah, I have problems too. I try to stay in shape so I'm a thin guy (5' 11" around 155 lbs). If I get shirts with sleeves long enough, the body fits me like a tent. I have to buy "athletic cut" dress shirts.

My problem is my arms. I'm pretty sure I have abnormally long arms. I can have a longsleeve shirt fit me great everywhere and the sleeves are 3" too short.

Explain to me how Tim who's 6'2" & 145 pounds can fit into L's with no problems?

You must have some ridiculously long torso or something.

lmfao the shirts i get that are usually L's r too long they go way past my waist theres also sum who fit perfectly it jus depends on the company i guess. those Johnny cupcakes shirts i cant fit into an L bc there made smaller i get an XL and then they fit perfect width wise but then are LONG as hell, but the L is fine length wise. alot of american apparel shirts are the same also. it really jus depends on the company

There's a difference between freedom of movement and swimming in clothes.

I have the same problem. I'm 6'3, 180 and I usually buy L/XL, depending on the store. I find pants to be the hardest thing to find lol. 33x35 is hard to come across .

i bought a couple of shirts from Shmack like 6months ago from karmaloop in XL(just to be on the safe side cause from the pictures they offered they seemed to run small) and when i got them......i swear to you, length wise it fit like a medium but was wide like an XL....i was like WTF

sent that____ back ASAP!!! hahahaha

yeah alot of places are tricky which blow so u really have to be on the safe side by ordering the next size up but chances are its either gonna be TOO LONG or TOO WIDE it always sux but what else can u do.

pants are never hard for me i always find mine 34x32 or 36x32 also depending on the company but usually always levis skinny fit jeans
