clothes shopping for small guys

[aizan]

ok, i'm 5'9'' and 120lbs. i wear 34(xs) shirts and 28x30 pants (actual size).

if you've got the same problem, where do you find clothes? online? do you know any shops in los angeles that carry these sizes? i want to get some clothes that don't make me look like a teenager. thanks! =)

dear lord you are the smallest man EVER

[powerviolence]

I am 5'4, and just under 120 pounds

im so glad somebody made a thread about this

It is almost impossible for me to find anything that fits at holt renfrew and many other nice stores

japanese brands always fit good

because I guess japanese people are nice and small too

i was planning to go to japan for just that reason. ostensibly, it's to visit my sister while she's there next semester.

wow m1sterko just made dumbest post ever

i mean, op was pretty dumb, i'll avoid sarcasm tho cuz he gave me advice in another thread... a lot of sufu is small and this topic has been done before...

but m1sterko's post is like dumb dumb dumb, make-me-wonder-about-where-society-is-headed kind of dumb

86.8% of sufu "men" are below 5'5 and 130lbs.

eww, i'd have to be 90lbs or something to look like christian bale in 'the machinist'.

i must have used the wrong keywords, because i did a search beforehand.

first time post!

i just found a blog that is a shopping resource for short men.

i don't know if it helps as i haven't gone through the blog save for the most recent entry. i'm 5'7" myself and i've had good luck with obedient sons, robert geller, etc.

anyone who is 5'7"wears hi tops? i kinda think hi tops makes me look shorter when tucked in

[cernunnos]

i'm 5'2", 89 pounds. i'm on a diet, actually, planning to loose ~10 pounds.

[Double D]

110lbs, 34/26x32, so I'm in the same boat.

Your best friends should be all labels Japanese, Topman, American Apparel and a good tailor.

I am 5'4 and I wear hi tops almost always

they look fine as long as they are to your foot size

if you have really big feet (somehow) compared to your height

it kinda looks funny
