    He’s not wrong! I’m 6’6” living in Costa Rica. They don’t have any tall stores. Their 3X shirts are super rare and are like XL and if I’m lucky 2X. They have European sizes. I have to buy smaller sandals that have Velcro adjustments and open them all the way. My toes are at the end of the shoes. Other shoes are out. When we go to the US the first thing my wife does is clothes shop

    Remember everyone, you can’t just go to a tailor if you need to make a pair of pants longer - tailors can really only remove fabric, not add, especially in mens clothing where extra seams or “showing ankle” are not acceptable. So it’s a much worse problem than it is for short people - it might suck that shorter people have to go to the juniors section to find their size… but at least most stores have their size somewhere (just not in a section they want to visit). Almost no store sells pants that are long enough for a 6ft 5 or taller person unless they’re specialty or custom made, and you can’t just buy a pair of pants made for a shorter person, because they’ll look like shorts or capris… which is rarely the look anyone is going for for long pants.

    Public transport as well. I'm only just at top end of average, but there's never enough leg room on buses. Some local ones have a couple of seats that are ok, but there's usually a short@rse already sitting there. They should have one of those stickers like they have to "give up this seat for someone elderly or disabled".
    "Shift it, short@rse."

      It’s easier to take material off than to put material on. If a pair of pants is too long, you can have them taken in. If a pair of pants is too short, it is impossible to go to a tailor and have them “lengthened”. They’ll laugh you out.
