Men - you are thin therefore we don’t make pants long enough for you
The opposite issue for me: Big ass, big thighs, short legs.
I’ve given up and now I tend to just buy women’s pants.
That is better than the opposite. You can have your pants hemmed and taken in where required. It is harder to add material.
I feel like people these days don’t utilize tailors enough. You can improve a lot of off the rack clothing.
Yeah, I’ve had that problem. One of the nice things about Reddit was r/tallfashion – acc had links to stuff with decent waist and inside leg. Have found some women’s trousers pretty good for that too.
But women’s pants are cut for people that don’t have genitals sticking out of their crotches. How do you avoid uncomfortable smashing?
Women’s pants are also bad about that. I was underweight from stress during my breakup and most women’s tall sizes start at a “6” which is like a men’s 32, more or less. I was not that big at that point. And to make matters worse, many of the allegedly tall pants just have a longer inseam and are not longer in the rise, as though all difference in height is just legs.
Gap makes tall men’s (I just checked and they go down to 32"waist and have 36" inseam and right now the slim fit is so, so cheap in price) and women’s pants, they actually do make them tall not just longer inseam. I am not tall enough for their tall pants but get the best fit by buying tall and hemming them, because standard fit (to the extent it even exists in women’s clothing) is wedgie city, not long enough. They also make tall shorts, which is amazing,they actually fit.
It’s pretty annoying when I go to the clothing store, or Costco, or whatever, and everything is like size 46+ waist. I’m not sure if that’s all that is left because all of the average sizes were sold out, or if that’s the average size so they have a lot of them. Looking around at my fellow shoppers I think it’s the former, but again, I’m not sure.
What? I’m not slim, neither fat, I’m about average dude, but I rarely ever find pants that aren’t too long. Maybe it’s EU thing, but nearly every time I put on regular pants I feel like a scuba diver with the excesive pants as “fins”. Last pants I bought “short” version and I’d still need about inch shorter…
