Hey folks,

I was wondering if folks had any brands or stores that they particularly enjoy or find have sizes for the tall.

I've been doing a wardrobe refresh through Torrid, but keep finding the sleeves stop inches before my wrist. Finding masc clothing is less of an issue, but femme clothing or fun shoes tends to be a longer or less fruitful shopping trip for me.

Add on to this...

Anything in the realm of shoes for people with giant feet? It's hard enough shopping for men's shoes in a US 11.5 with 6E width, be nice to go into transition with some options. (The feet will probably shrink a bit when I lose a good 30-40 pounds but still)

I thought about posting this comment earlier, canceled it, then I saw a picture of some socks with the model wearing these cute boots with a leaf pattern on them and... I want them. I highly doubt I could find a pair for myself. But... want.

I am a men's 12w and I can get my feet into the largest size from Torrid. I'm not sure if it is a combo of height/weight, but I can only go about 2 hours in them before I need to give my feet a break.
