Ottakee Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Where would you shop for 2-3X tall or extra tall shrits? Catalog or store. My dh is only 5'10" but very long in the body with short (28" inseam) legs. We need nice quality T-shirts that wear well and wash well (he is a mechanic so things do get dirty). He also likes plaid short sleeve shirts---those 65% cotton/35% poly---so I don't have to iron :-) Seems like so many "tall" shirts are only a tiny bit longer than normal and/or are poor quality. I am looking for stuff like LL Bean or Land's End but their 2X is often just a bit too small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn. Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I used to buy all of dh's shirts at Casual Male,Big and Tall. JC Penney has big and tall, but I haven't actually bought him anything from there. The last few years I have been buying his shirts from (no tomatoes please) Walmart. They last just as long as the expensive ones. Most of them longer as a matter of fact. hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happypamama Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I don't know if they'll have the type you want or not, but I know my DH wears a long/tall shirt and has had good success with ordering long/tall from Cabela's. He says they are indeed longer than the regulars. (And at least the chamois shirts from there have been worth the money, as they've lasted several seasons each, and my DH is not gentle on clothes.)

itsheresomewhere Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Wranglers pro tshirts from amazon are great too. DH tends to attract stains/holes/i don't know how that got there and these last. Cabela's is great too. JCPennys have been shrinking on us and I wash in cold water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audrey Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Sears carries a big and tall line. IIRC, so does JCPenney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veritaserum Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Dh is 6'5" and his dad is 6'10". Casual Male XL, JC Penny Big & Tall, Dillards, and KingSize Direct are places to try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pink&bluemommy Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Dillards or maybe Eddie Bauer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delighted3 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 The most reasonably priced places we have found are JCPenny's and Kohls. That is where my husband buys pretty much all of his clothes. Joy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmschooln Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 JcPenney or Cabelas. JCP will have pretty good sales/clearance(like as cheap or cheaper than Walmart) once in a while on there's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
