A strange problem???

    Hey all,

    was in Dundrum yesterday looking for a pair of jeans. In every shop i went to i could not find a pair that would fit me. I have pretty big quads and hams, roughly 32 inches around give or take. My family have good genetics for legs and heavy leg training has done the rest, hell, even my calves are about 19 inches!!

    All in all, this makes it a little difficult to find pants that fit at all, especially now that most shops don't seem to cater to anyone bigger than a 16 year old boy.

    Does anyone else have the same problem, or a similar problem for different reasons???

    Can anyone point me in the direction of some pants please????

    I know my trainer has the very same problem and he gets his jeans in jack and jones.

    My biceps and triceps are now too big to fit into most of my long sleeve t-shirts... I'm thinking of just ripping them and going for that mid-transformation Hulk look... or Hulk-ette as the case may be ;)

    Cheers for that G'em , i'll give Jack and Jones a try. To be honest though, i might have to wait till the New Year, January through March is spent cutting and i should be dropping from low 260's to the high 220's. Good news is that this will make my waist a bit smaller, bad news is that it will bring only about a half inch off my legs.

    Crap!

    The best thing to do would be to go for baggy fit jeans: the legs are a little bigger and the waist is the same. Jack and Jones is one of the stores that do a lot of baggy jeans. Unique do quite a lot of them as well.

    There's nothin worse than a pair of jeans that are tight round the legs!:mad:

    I'm fed up with dublin for clothes sizes, i find it so hard to get decent size 12 shoes or runners, i have to get my sis to get them for me in NY, also most clothes shops have barely anything for my height.

    I second Jack and Jones- my boyfriend has big quads and got jeans in there pretty easily.

    Yup, my bf has the exact same problem, and it's nigh on impossible to find jeans/pants. The last pair he got were combats from Penney's. I'll pass on the Jack and Jones tip.
