I’m 6ft 3inches and you can have an amazing style if you work out and shop according to your style. Suits, tuxedos, senators, shorts. I’ll send a few photos. You can contact me for further fashion tips

You never tell us your height!

All sizes are available na ..

You talking like it's a rare thing in D market cheesy
It is rare. You don’t know because you are not tall or with big feet. Even when they see their size, they get exploited because they are usually desperate. Worse is, they don’t even get many options. They just show them anything and expect them to take it at exorbitant rates.

For ladies, dress size above size 14 is a struggle.
Shoe size 41 and above is a struggle.

For guys, shoes above size 45. Bad as e bad, 46.

You can patronize bespoke shoemakers. They are many on IG. smiley

I am 6'3 and most times I enter a clothing store it's unlikely to see an outfit or shoe I like that's in my size. Most times I have to settle for designs I really don't like just because it's my size and I don't have an option.

Get a tailor to make your clothes.

That's why you have tailors...

These days, even average and short guys get their clothes custom made by tailors.

It fits even better!

But it is more expensive and takes more time. Someone that just wants to quickly buy jeans and tops would start waiting?

I had a bespoke tailor make a tee and joggers for me. Paid Jan 25. According to their policy, they need 10 working days to deliver. I kid you not, they only delivered last week and the wrong colour. It was just me testing them and they sure gave me a memorable first impression.

My only problem is shoe size, I wear size 47. It takes the grace of God to see my shoe size after roaming around the market like a psycho.
My brother I feel your pain,we have the same problem .sometimes you will see UK 47 on online stores but when it gets to you it's says and shows UK 47 but looks like a 45 and I'll have to return because it doesn't fit.if you even managed to see a true size 47 the price will be more than 30 to 40,% the price of the same shoe of say size 39 to 45.i cant even talk about trousers,I prefer using short sleeves shirt because of most times the shirt is nice but the sleeves length is too short

Do not rely on boutique/already made clothes. Get custom made shoes and clothes.

My Designer does that for me. I don't need to stress myself about that.

I simply show him the style and material I want, he perfects his own job and puts his logo. That's all.

is your designer in lagos?

Check online stores. I order my shoes from online stores abroad.

You should know that there are no varieties for big sizes unless you will have someone making them for you.
Re: Tall Guys' Fashion Issues In Nigeria by Nyanyafk: 1:51pm On Mar 19, 2022
I wear size 45 for shoes and it is hard to see fine shoe in the market, and don't get me started on clothes, most of the nice clothes are of smaller size, these days I mostly wear natives as they are tailor made and fit me nicely.

70-80% of the world is short.
Unlike what some people believe, excessive height is a freak of nature.

Really?!? That's strange...

Most of my clothes for formal and informal occasions including jeans are tailor made to my absolute taste and delight.

They didn't spend that long (1 week max)!

They have their moments. But then, it doesn’t encourage spontaneity and impulse buying. Not forgetting the cost. The average youth doesn’t have that kind of money and time.

I'm tall and I've now made it a point to get my clothes sown. going to the market to buy clothes is a pain. it's either too short but fits every other way or long enough but too big laterally speaking
