I usually abhor violence but you big or tall or big and tall guys should go to Structure, lift that clerk by his shirt collar, and ask him if he sees anything he wants to laugh at now. This could be like a clothing meet.

So I have to go to the lesser/ghetto malls and find clothes. I usually never have a problem finding pants. I should wear 34x34, but I'll just buy 36x34 and put a belt on if I have to do it that way.

Costco..
Heh.. Yup - Costco Levi's Silver Tab Baggy's. Wearing some now. I usually grab them if I find 33x34 or 34x34 pants because they are pretty hard to find. My most comfy clothes are some RL Baggy jeans I got at Costco 3 yrs ago - if I could find them again I would buy bags of them. Then, like.. Levi's, Old Navy and Gap khakis or cargo pants and now - sounds weird, but Nike ACG pants fit great, seem to be well made and are pretty cheap. Check them out. I am 5' 13" and about 185lbs so uhh - average I guess.

I figure I would throw in my two cents in that I am 6'8" and weigh 245 lbs. And yes, climbing through my roll cage and into my Sparco's is a huge pain in arss. Anyway, I typically buy my jeans at the Levi's store off Union Square in SF. They do custom measurements and can order any size, in any combination of color, fabric, etc. You end up with jeans that fit really well, are plenty long enough and look cool. As for slacks, dress shirts and suits I typically shop at Nordstrom. They have a great selection of larger sizes and are happy to order something that is not in stock. If you are going big pimping Las Vegas style, Versace and Giorgio Armani (not Armani Exchange) typicailly carry larger sizes.
Cheers,
Ben
