babysitting the argument in my head
So I have been lifting for a little while now and I have run into some problems with street clothes.. finding ones that fit and or look good with a lifters or bodybuilders build is not yet a nightmare but its getting close.

So i was wondering if anyone has suggestions, experience, and or wisdom on clothing lines or stores that offer clothes that fit people of our lifestyle?

Any help would be much appreciated and thanks in advance.

Im not even close to as big as these cats.. but shit im already having troubles..

For pants since I got large legs, I have a 28 inch waist but wear a 34 inch jeans with a belt to comfortably fit my legs. Shirts are a bit different as if I go a size larger it looks like a dress, right now my shirts just look tight and I look like a douchebag lmao. I'll worry about it when spring comes and I don't have a jacket to cover up with.
 
dude, i have a very similar frame/type body as you and have the exact same problems. Aside from having stuff tailored (miss my ex, she'd always tailor my shit), I find my best approach is to just go to thrifts and try on stupid amounts of clothing, and I eventually find stuff that fits; it'd be beyond excessive to buy nice clothes considering how quickly I ruin or outgrow them. Also couldn't imagine what it'd look like to wear 6" extra waist and just belt it up, your midsection must look like a trainwreck lol, the floating-shirt effect probably helps cover that tho ;)

I just hate buying clothes in general so I wear my old jeans from when I was a fatty lol. I have a pair of 30" waist relaxed fit that are comfortable unless worn on leg day then I can barely get back into them after gym. Big leg problems lol
