    Hello Boardsies

    I'm 6ft3in tall and very skinny; where's the best place to buy formal/leisure shirts/tops etc? Anywhere that specialises in these? I don't mean the skinny-jeans emo-type wear either, that stuff sucks.

    You sound like a friend of mine. Although he can't stand the neon fronted hell-hole that is American Apparel, it's apparently the best place he can find for tops and shirts etc. Good fits and good quality. He wouldn't be your skinny-jean guy either.

    He's about 6'1" and he is very thin. Might be worth a look if it suits him.

    Topman do size XS / XXS now, might be worth looking at for basic tops and plain shirts!

    Ha they'd be like belly tops on me. Very disturbing image actually...

    H&M's t'shirts run longer than Topman's. I also got an XS t-shirt from ASOS which fits me perfectly on the shoulders and chest but is basically a dress on me - might be worth looking into.
