What part of clothe shopping annoys you most? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

As a 6'2 man the clothes I find which are right for my height are often very loose on me. And if I worry about the waist I look like a kid who grew a lot in the past 2 months and everything is too short for me.

Its not entirely universal, some stores are better than others. And I wear a lot of loose casual t-shirts so thats fine too. But finding dress shirts means some places work, some don't.

I have a big head and have trouble with hats. Particularly ball caps. They are supposed to be one-size-fits-all, but apparently, I am an exception to this. Even at the widest possible setting, they are too tight.

Yep yep yep. I can find some but even they look weird on me since I'm loosening up to as much as I can

I have that problem with glasses. 56-17-140 glasses seem to fit well enough right now. But the options are limited.

Yeah, I usually buy cheap drug store readers and break them regularly. Even the ones with spring hinges can't seem to cope with my head size. I should probably go get proper fitted glasses, but I also misplace them all the time and would worry about spending the big bucks on something I'd lose in a week.
