Most of my clothes come from flea markets.

I thought that Value City in Latonia was closed that only the furniture store was open there .

That's correct. Burlington Coat Factory moved into the Value City Latonia location.

I absolutley hate clothes shopping. I have a very tall torso and can rarely find shirts that fit. I'm 6'5" and only have a 32" pant inseam - so as you can imagine, I'm all upper-body.

 

Most big and tall stores should be labeled "Big with one or two tall selections". I got lucky and found tall polos at JCPenney for around $15 each. I shop at a lot of places already mentioned, but rarely do I find something that fits well. When I do, I buy 2 or 3.

 

When I was first married, my wife thought I was just being dramatic about not finding any clothes to fit me. Little did she know that my complaints are well warranted. Pants are the only thing I can easily find to fit. Shoes and shirts (especially t-shirts) are hit or miss, where I'll typically have a choice of one or two items in the store. I haven't found a t-shirt that fits me well for the past 8 years.

I went to Mens Wharehouse, Jos Banks and then to BCF and I gotta tell you I liked the suit I got at BCF better than any of the other stores and the service was much better as well. The 24 yr old cheesy sales rep at MW was a joke, I laughed and walked out after he kept trying to upsell me on suits I didnt need.

 

The lady at Jos banks was so busy she didnt even know what she was handing me. The dude at BCF was a slick cat and he also picked out some cool cufflinks and tie for me. I highly recommend it if you just need a simple suit.

I also find something every once in a while at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls, but you really have to sort through everything.

It's not really on your list, but I usually buy most of my stuff at a consignment store. I'm not too picky about clothes. I buy a suit about every 2nd or 3rd funeral. I do buy new stuff maybe before a vacation, but I don't have many of those either.

American Eagle, Hollister, Abercombie and Fitch.

I get most of my clothes from Kohl's and Old Navy.

 

However, I did get out to Steve and Barry's before they closed and raided their store there. They had some nice stuff.

Nooo UKMF, you're not one of "those" are you?? :lol: :lol:

Yesterday I went to Goody's...I bought three pairs of shorts and four T-shirts...

 

The shorts were Regular $40 a pair and the shirts reg $16...The shorts cost me $8.97 a pair and the shirts $4.00 each...Grand total $45...I only shop for clothes when I have to...

I have a question for those of you who only wear Banana Republic, GAP, American Eagle, A&F, Hollister, Aeropostale.......why?

 

Are you not tired of paying ridiculous prices to be a walking advertisement for these companies?

My parents only buy them when they are at a good price. Like 50% off or more. :thumb:

So that makes them what? $20 for a shirt instead of $40? Lol, j/k but still, I don't get the desire to be branded.:confused:

Banana Republic

 

I'm small, their clothes are cut to fit people my size a lot better than anywhere else I can find (that I can remotely afford). I like the styles, make, and quality of their clothes better than most places (once again, that I can afford).

 

Actually they put no logos on their clothes or I would probably have kept looking for another place. Clothing logos bother me...the only exception for me is Spyder...but I love their skiing clothes.

 

I probably haven't been there since last December.
