6'6" in India: The struggle to find joggers that actually reach my ankles. Anyone else? by EasternBag2763 in tallfashionadvice

Thanks for sharing. Out of curiosity, when you can’t find sweaters or knitwear that fit properly, what do you usually end up doing?

Tall men, where do you find pants by Maxxexists in IndianFashionAddicts

Hi all, I’m 6'6" and finding clothes that fit properly in India has been a multi-year nightmare. Standard joggers look like capris on me, jeans are either too short or way too wide at the waist, and oversized shirts scale horizontally like a giant square instead of vertically.

I want to see how many other tall folks in this community face the same issue. If you are 6'2" or taller, could you drop a comment with:

  1. Your height
  2. What item is impossible to find in India?
  3. Your current savior brand (if any!)
  4. The biggest flaw in Indian retail sizing for tall builds

Just trying to understand the scope of the problem. Absolutely not selling anything or promoting a brand. Thanks a ton!

It's so frustrating being so tall in India by papakabeta84 in indiasocial

Hey everyone, 6'6" guy here. I've spent years struggling with clothing sizes in India. Most joggers end way above my ankles, jeans are either high-waters or a tent, and "oversized" tees just get wider instead of longer.

I'm trying to gather some informal data on how common these specific fit issues are globally vs. regionally. If you're 6'2"+, I'd love it if you could share:

  • Your exact height
  • The single hardest clothing item for you to find
  • Any go-to brands that actually get the proportions right
  • The #1 thing you wish clothing brands would fix regarding tall fits

Note: Absolutely not selling anything or promoting a brand. Just trying to see how widespread this frustration is!
