big and tall men's models. ever wonder why when shopping for big and tall clothing (because us big and tall men can never walk into a normal store and buy clothes) the models modeling the big and tall clothing are neither big nor tall? Well they may be tallISH. But never BIG. Just once I would like to go to macys.com or heck, even gap.com and see a 6 foot tall 250 to 275lb man modeling some 2x and 3x shirts and 42 waist pants

These men MAY be tall. But they are by no means big!

    For the same reason that models for women's plus sizes are never usually "plus" sized. Go into Torrid and they have skinnyish models as well.

    Ha, they are advertiseing "slim" pants for big & tall. How many big & talls can wear slims?
    I'm 6'6", 250-ish pounds, and hate trying to find clothes that fit.
