where can I buy shirts for dougie

As dougie has a pretty challenging day job, I have recently found it impossible to get shirts for him,

hes a large lad at the best of times, but his job has seen his biceps grow a bit,

He is 6ft 5' has a 21' neck
my problem is 3xl only goes to 52' chest and dougie has a 58' chest and 20' biceps

even if I find one that fits his neck and chest I have problems with them being to tight at the biceps..

does anyone know of somewhere on the high street I can buy shirts to fit... or do I have to go to high and mighty or something like that now?

Have you tried Cotton Traders, Shona? They go up to 5xl on a lot of their stuff, and they do work wear as well as more dressy stuff.

www.cottontraders.co.uk

Baz is a big b*gger as well, so I use them a fair bit. The only problem is, you have to pay the costs of any returns.

They do have a few outlets/shops and you may be lucky enough to have one near you.

The quality of their stuff is really good too.

Cotton Traders have a shop at the Designer Outlet in Macarthur Glen at Livingston Shona.

There is also a Van Huessen shop opposite M & S at Macarthur Glen who only sell shirts they do go up to big sizes but not sure just how big, but if you were going to Cotton Traders anyhow it would be worth a look.
