saint808 said:ebay my friend... not just saying that because i have stuff up for sale either. Try wearing a 52 jacket and a shirt size of 19 33/34![]()

wtlftr said:SSS, i wear a 48r. What ya have in mind? As far as shirts go, my chest and back area are tight but arms are loose. I wish I had an arm problem, they are a stale 17" pumped and flexed

pitbullstl said:Here's what I'm wondering..........
How could anyone wear a 52 jacket, and only be a 17 in a shirt????
Unless you are a fat mofo......there is no way a 52" chest would fit in a 17 shirt.......
I wear a 52-54 in jackets......and a 19 1/2 in shirts.....and the shirts are still tight in the arms.....and chest...
Try Mark Shale for designer bigger clothes.....
You can't find Couture lines.....but you can still find high fashion stuff...(Mani and others) in 52 and up.....best bet is custom made suits......with the tailoring involved in off the rack stuff.......it's usually cheaper.....shirts as well........![]()
strongsmartsexy said:Well, if you only have a 17" neck getting a 19" necked shirt isn't going to do you much good. The neck size has nothing to do with Chest size. My shirts are 17" neck and the only issue I have with them is that they are built straight down, which does nothing to highlight the V taper. I have a 33" waist, which basically makes that shirt look baggy on me from the mid-rib down.

pitbullstl said:Not true......a 19 is bigger in the shoulders and chest than a 17.![]()
A lot bigger actually.
You can have shirts custom made to taper down the sides......I have mine made at Mi Italia (In SoBe, Washington Ave.) A standard business button down with flared collar, and French Cuffs will run around $165.00 which is cheap for custom tailoring. ( you'll pay a premium for silk) They do suits as well, depending in the material you're looking at $1200.00-5000.00........but man do they fit well.

Dial_tone said:Exactly. It's the neck that determines the size of the shirt, since a guy with a guy with a bigger neck is assumed to have a bigger chest. I haven't had custom shirts made in 10 years but that was money well spent. The problem is you have to be at a stable bodyweight to justify it, otherwise you may outgrow the shirts too soon.
strongsmartsexy said:I think you missed my point. If you have a 17" neck and a 50" chest, getting a shirt with a 19" neck will make it hella difficult to put on a tie.
My wife isn't too keen on me buying more suits until I've finished my first year's worth of "vitamins". Once I've gone through that and have settled in size, I'll go buy more. Rack suits don't do me any good, so it's going to have to be custom. I think I see a trip to Taiwan in my future for business.
