Honestly what they sow this days is something else, I ave opt for short sleeve shirts for now, as for trousers, they will make you to wear ankle jeans and jump suit (tracksuit) something we use to call jump-up back in those days.

I be 6ft 6, I think everything concerning wears is my problem, footwear and cloths. The painful part is roaming around the market all day without seeing one tangible thing to buy.
You don't know how hurt it feels seeing nice outfit you like until you try to wear and it doesn't fit you.
This days I just buy designed cloths materials and give it to a designer to sew it same with foot wears, I buy custom made ones.

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.


I'm tall niqqa..
6'4 baby!! cheesy

I don't struggle to get my wear .. he shouldn't also

It's really a big problem,I thought I was the only one. Getting good trousers especially black and navy blue trousers that I only use, is my biggest problem. I tried cut and sew but the tailor ruined everything..
Most of the clothes and shoes I buy,I end up dashing them to my younger brother who's always happy to receive them grin

What I do for trousers is mostly combat..black combat trousers. I try and get long sleeve shirts and always fold the arms. Cut and sew is a good idea only if you have good tailor.
Someone said roaming around the market like a psycho,hell yeah,very correct grin
Shoes are another big problem,unless you are tall and got small feet. But all the same,I find a way to cope as a typical Lagos Benin boy cool

Went to buy trousers one afternoon.

Entered one of those shops that owner's won't let you go unless you buy something.

We tested his jeans but they were all too short for me, nah so oga dey go from shop to shop dey bring trousers for me. None reach.

Next thing I know, people don come one by one to see who the buyer be. grin

I'm 6.3" and I wear shoe size 47/48. I mostly buy from online vendors especially on IG. Some comes out good while some are just waste of money especially handmade shoes. Recently started patronising one shoe shop whenever I'm in Asaba. The guy has good shoes for men. As for shirt, I have slim fit body, so it's easy to get while my pants are well tailored by one very good tailor in Abuja or check out Pants NG or something on IG.

Then your first instinct would be to guide him to where you shop for your Goliath wears, but alas, everything is a dick-measuring-contest. Till now you haven’t given any reasonable guide or shared your shoe/clothe plug.

I was going to post a method, but I realised that the actual hustlers will jump on it and that will be the end of that as a cost friendly method of buying good shoes

Re: Tall Guys' Fashion Issues In Nigeria by slowice(m): 2:56pm On Mar 19, 2022
I have never had a problem with shoes as I always fine good 46 but not many though, trousers too are always available, already made and away fit fine, especially chinos and plain. Na shirt and polo be my problem.

The ones with good length are oversize, the ones with good fit are either too short in length or sleeves.

Na to begin gym make my body big wella to make it easier I dey reason now lipsrsealed
