Re: Tall People
Quite short, all my shirts are way to big as well. Makes me look shorter.
Re: Tall People
finally got round to ordering some of those Beefy Tees and they fit pretty well, finally a reliable source of cheap shirts that fit!! havent washed them yet so hoepfully they wont shrink too much but they are a little baggy atm so a little would do nicely

Re: Tall People
I am not tall but at 6ft I am hardly short either. I'd hate to be one of those little blokes under 5'10". Little blokes always remind me of vicious little Jack Russels, full of piss and bad temper.
I bet seckle's mental health problems are exasperated by his height problems.

Re: Tall People
i'm 6 foot 6 and have similar problems. i've found that there doesnt really seem to be much continuity in makes of clothes with the exception of adidas. element arent bad either. most makes are bit all over the place, for instance i got a few zoo york t-shirts and the xl is all over the place...
i really hate when companies (nike is terrible for this) just assume that when you get something thats an XL, it means you're fat, not tall. i swear theres no difference in the arm length between l and xl with nike, they just make it wider. H&M is good for the "tall not fat" XL.

i was 6 foot when i STARTED secondary school. had size 13 feet and was 6 foot 4 when i was 13. stopped growing when i was 18 though. growing pains were a mother fucker, used to pull muscles in my legs all the time. had loads of problems with my achilles tendons when i was 12-14. not fun...
