I'm being discriminated against!

[OrphicSeth]

Freaking uniform people screwed my pant order all to high Hades and back, and I need some pants and I'm not going to pay their outlandish prices. So off to the mall I went, in search of pants. I was able to match the color and style pretty darn good with a pair of Docker's Pro Pant something or other, but in terms of finding my size, that was a debacle in itself. Four department stores, and my size nowhere in sight. So I go for the next size up... but the Pro Pant only comes in "Relaxed". SO, with the bigger size and the relaxed fit all in cahootz against me, I was floating in 'em. "Good morning ma'am, I'm the Balloon Man F/O, welcome aboard!"

So no pants for me.

If you're tall and skinny, forget it, you ain't finding pants anywhere. The market is targeting the demand for big-boy sizes, and deliberately left me out of loop! I demand government monetary compensation, emotional support groups--both at home and work, and uniform re-imbursement!




edit: This being flightinfo with its contingent of gunslingers, a disclaimer: The above is sarcastic in nature. (I still would like pants made in my size a little more often though... or at least easier to find.)

 

[ohplease!]

ah...stop whining and go have some big macs.....supersize it!

 

[Northern Lights]

I hear ya man. 34/34 or 34/32 are all over the place, but finding a 32/34 in a style I like is quite a treasure hunt!

 

[FlyChicaga]

Or 31/30 and size M in anything. Gone.

I don't think they make sizes that small here though. Chicago is after all the second fattest city in America. I have to do my shopping in neighboring Iowa or Indiana where dem be corn-fed.

Talk about discrimination....I can't find long enough pants either! I wear a size 6, but all the legs are too short! I have to buy 8s and 10s and have the pants altered. Why should I have to pay extra just because I have long legs?

It's a conspiracy, I tell ya.

32/34...31/30??? What a bunch of skinny m0therfckers!! you guys must look like wiper blades from the side!

Im so jealous

 

[88_MALIBU]

33/33 is the all time worst.

 

[Hugh Jorgan]

I've been known to hide behind rope to go incognito.

The bad part is I have a big head, so essentially I look like a lollypop.

My Mom still buys my cloths *insert embarrassed smiley here*

 

[cforst513]

i love going shopping and finding like the 42 X 32 pants. what a country we live in.

34 x 34 all the way, baby.

 

[Hung Start]

ya,,, well try to find size 15 shoes. And then try to wedge them between the center console and the seat. Sigh.

 

[av8tor4239]

Try Walmart.. The George brand has every size imaginalble to man, and they are less than 20 bucks, last 6 months to a year!

 

[FlyBarneyJets]

Good to be a big and tall! We have our own stores!!

AMEN my large-and-in-charge brother!!

BTW, which of them has the best "uniform pants?" The brand I used to buy is no longer being made and I'm after a few replacements.

 

[OrphicSeth]

Well... For those interested, I have two pairs of Cintas pleated pants, navy, 32 waist, 41 outseam (about a 33 inseam). Ten bucks each. Brand spanking new.
