The local JCPenney was having a sale this weekend with between 50 and 75% off some winter type clothes. I decided to go and see what they had this afternoon. Once again Retailers if you are going to advertise a “Big & Tall” section, make sure there is Tall stuff in it. Being 6’5″ there was only 1 pair of pants that were even 36″ inseam. Out of the whole section only one freaking pair, and I did not even like them. Why is it that there was more 52″x29″ than 3[46]”x36″? I think it has to do with the fattening of America. I pretty much hate going shopping for pants/jeans any more as you can never ever find a store that is local and that has anything in a 36″ inseam. 34″ inseams only work if you never sit down and you never wash the pants. After that you might as well throw them away as they would look like “carpi’s” on me.
So I beg to all you retailers out there keep stuff in stock for TALL people. I don’t like being told that “oh you can get that from the catalog, or our online store”. It is almost to the point of discrimination against tall people if you look at it that way. I want to be able to go in to a store and get something that fits at that moment. I don’t want to have to wait till it is shipped to me to find out that it doesn’t really fit right or doesn’t look like it did in the catalog/web site.
To all the other tall people out there, where do you find pants/jeans that are in stock in a local store?
