SAGA Outerwear... you can't find bigger shit. Dope specs and they are huge and built to look hot even when sized up to XXLs. not like other stuff that gets all out of porportion just cause you are tall or like to rock stuff steezy like. HOLLA

obermeyer sizes their clothes soo screwy. the SMALL, MEDIUM, LARGE, XL, and XXL describes the waist size. the secret of it all is that they size how long the pants are by SHORT, NORMAL, and LONG. people think that the XXL in obermeyer stuff means longer when it really means its for fat people. the more X's before the L means the fatter the waist and the fatter the pant. so keep in mind when ordering obermeyer that the pant size SMALL, MEDIUM, LARGE, XL, and XXL describes the waist size NOT how long the pant is. so for instance, last year i got XL LONG obermeyer pants and they were long as fuck (and a bit wide).

just thought id explain that haha

fuck thankyou so much i cant wait until the day that fucking outerwear companies realize that fat people dont fucking ski!!!!!!!  I have never seen a tall fat person so why the fuck is the longest size in every company for a fat fucker.  im so god damn bitter about this because im 6'4" and every single pair of fucking pants ive ever worn have been too fucking fat in the waist and short as shit.  It pisses me off so much cause every pant looks retarded on me cause i wear it super low and its still fucking tight.
