Are they bespoke or are they made to measure? There’s a huge difference. Did you go through multiple stages of measurements in person with a tailor and then select the fabric?

Brand Spotlight: "Big Box" Stores (Target, Walmart, etc.) - Topic of the day 2/17/25

Growing up I basically had my pick of Salvation Army or Walmart for clothes, so I’ve sorta got a soft spot for the latter. Idk how it is these days but from what I can tell they haven’t changed a ton. Seems like true basics (tees, work clothes, etc) are available and can be had at a pretty reasonable value. That said, the minute I was making my own money I stopped shopping there. Knowing what I do about fast fashion now my assumption is they probably are just as bad if not worse than most mall brands.

Okay it’s an ugly-ass shirt but it’ll pair fine with muted neutrals (black, grey, etc) hope that helps

Alteration for Tall People

Workwear definitely makes sizes that will work for you (read: us) Dickies, carhartt, wrangler, etc all make extended sizing for shirting and pants (eg, tall, long inseams, etc). I’m a 32 x 35ish, so I usually gravitate more toward those brands or similar. Of note: a lot of higher end denim companies do unhemmed jeans, so the pants are generally just standard 36”. Part of the reason I have so much denim. Lol As far as posture goes, I do a lot of physical activity—hiking, competitive shooting/training, fencing, etc, all of which require carrying weight for a long while. Good posture just kinda happened by necessity.

Alteration for Tall People

Hey what’s up homie We’re built pretty similarly, I’m about an inch shorter and 10 lbs heavier but the point stands. (Check some fits I’ve posted in WAYWT to confirm that we have a similar enough build for this advice to make sense). It took me a little bit to figure out how things fit and how I like them to fit, and the starting point to success there is knowing your measurements to a T, and more importantly, knowing the measurements of garments that fit you exactly how you want them to. Most off the rack stuff from mall brands and fast fashion is unfortunately just not cut for anyone our height. (It’s part of the reason I got into smaller clothes companies in the first place) That said, there’s a lot of companies out there that make stuff a bit more forgiving. Obviously without knowing your exact measurements I can’t make any specific suggestions, but I’ve had good luck with Wrangler, Rockmount, and Ariat—limited luck with Levi’s on occasion. If we’re talking tailored clothes or suiting, etc, yeah you’ll probably need to get things tailored. I’ve never bought a suit and worn it off the rack. Just the nature of the game. For shirts, try to find a place that has numbered, not letter sizing. There’s way more options, and they tend to fit better for it. Fixing your posture will help as well, fwiw. I used to have pretty bad posture issues and a lot of problems with how stuff fit cleared up once I started focusing on correcting those issues.
