Any other male here who’s 5’4/5’5? Fitting has always been an issue for me. What do you all do for shirts/pants? Thinking of more casual wear and not formal. Any advice that won’t break the bank? Thanks!

Bonobos is very reliable for me

like

Bonobos has great clothes, which is kinda surprising to me because I recently discovered Walmart owns them. Go in the store and get the right fit tho. They have a bunch of different styles and fits for all different body types. If you order online, without trying things on first, you will most likely be returning.

Also the same height as a male. The extra money to tailor (which is free at some places, as mentioned) is absolutely worth it. A well fitting shirt, sweater, etc. makes a huge difference and will keep you feeling good!

Tailor your clothes.

D1, do they measure you and tailor accordingly or do you have to tell them your sizes? I’ve never gotten things tailored in the US

A lot of places will alter for free. Nordstrom, JCrew off the top of my head.

I'm 5'9" but have always had to get suits tailored. I'm proportioned weirdly--built like a tank with a long toro, so I generally shop in the big and tall section when buying off the rack, then get them seriously tailored so they don't look like a tent

I've bought custom shirts for years, but have never had them tailored.

I am short, but far too large. I wear 32/32 pant (they fit perfectly generally) but normally have to get large shirts because I have a bigger chest and neck (18.5in). I haven’t had a major issue shopping for shirts and hoodies. More jeans than anything, to comfortably fit my glutes.

Has anyone dealt with parents that never listens to what you actually need? All I need is support and empathy, but they always hand me oranges when I ask (specifically for apples). They think they are doing their best to care for me. But when I explain that I’m not happy at work and all they do is shame me for not being strong or smart enough for it. They ignore me when I keep coming out to them as gay (had to do it multiple times), and still keeping asking me to get a bf. I’m so bottled and mad
