Help finding clothes that fit!

People who squat.

Where do you guys shop to find dress clothes and jeans that fit you?
Are there any particular brands that I should look for? I barely have any jeans that fit. Any time I go to try on pants my thighs want to break out of the pants even with loose fit.

Does anyone else here have that problem?

Mirko? Is that you?

Lol but seriously, if you have the same problem as me its thighs being out of proportion to waist area - this means that anything that fits in the waist is too small for the thighs, and anything that fits in the thighs is too big in the waist...perhaps you have a similar problem.

I've found the best type of jeans to look for are 'loose straight leg' or something similar, they are the type of jean that dont have tapered legs, the leg goes straight down. they are meant to fit baggy on the average man, so the extra width in the legs can accommodate my legs better...

Hope this helps, if not, please clarify and I'll try to help more...

What I've been doing is shopping at Goodwill or a store that has pants on sale, and buy pants that fit my thighs. If they don't fit the waist, I either put a belt on or take them to a cheap tailor in town.

They do make designer jeans that should fit you proportionately, but they're expensive. Hence my above method, I still come out ahead saving money.

I prefer slacks myself, they're easier to work with and I think cheaper when you take it to a tailor.
