Please President Biden

Let us back in
Now DH bought hand made suits to go to work experience golf gear but only spent buttons on work shoes here
But happily spends hundred of $ on running shoes golf shoes in Florida
Well 15 months on the running shoes he bought on our last trip now need to be used to replace his every day trainers
So heaven help,us 2 whole days trying on running shoes to decide he wanted the same ones he has ( any body ever tried here to get slightly wide fit Nike running shoes in a 9 and a half ) he normally in the out let’s has multiple choices as it’s an odd fit
So it was an on line custom design order just let’s say his golf shirts are conservative (not ) compared to these younwont miss him in a crowd and the boys have told him don’t ever moan at mum about ugg slipper price again
And his golf shoes he says need replaced again odd fit shoes
Bought in Florida

Nike wide fit trainers, you don't know your wearing them, which makes me wonder why we in the UK do not cater for this? I am a lump and spent the whole of Saturday walking around Bluewater trying to find clothes that fit, there aren't any! Tall fat people need to wear clothes too!

They even have a Ralph Polo shop there, in the states they have amazing sizes, here its XXL max, why? we are supposed to have the most obese population in the world aren't we?

I clearly have money to spend, you don't get this size by not buying food. so why don't clothes manufacturers want my money?

Its weird.

I'm a UK 10.5 in trainers (US 11) so always find it much easier to buy out there than in the UK as most shops don't stock the half sizes that big.

Im 6ft4 and thin as hell. I need to get back to the states to get some casual trousers, why the heck can you only get skinny tight trousers in the uk! Cant recall the last time i saw boot cut jeans over here. a 40 year man in skinny jeans is not a cool look

Oh don’t DH has absolutely not rear end big long stork legs
The choice in Walmart for every day jeans Levi’s or wrangler he actually gets a pair that he’s comfortable in looks good in he loves Armani Jeans for dress jeans but they don’t have the right fit here
T-shirt’s he needs extra long broad skinny fit he’s got broad shoulders but slim
Me it’s petite curvy fit jeans I’ve a small waist but carry any weight on my bum and thighs
And DIL 1 is going off her head trying to find ultra slim fit long leg / body stuff for Gd1 we usually buy him a full years wardrobe he’s just five but needs age 7 for his height but it’s way too big I’ve been unpicking stuff to take it in for him he’s built like Grampa a flipping giraffe

This sounds like my son. He’s 5ft 10.5 at last check and still growing. 8 stone and can’t get any more weight on him. Everything hangs off him! It was ok when he was a bit shorter as he could wear kids sizes so it didn’t drown him but he’s too tall for that now
