What happened to XX and XXX sizes? Used to be my son wore an XL shirt. He's actually lost some weight in the last couple of years but has to buy 2X shirts to get them to fit.

Let's also ask about light weight jackets. I buy him a 2X and it fits around his chest but he can't zip it up because the waste is cut a lot smaller than the chest area. I guess they think we're all built like popeye. I can't imagine who ever thought that someone who needed a 2X will have a waste smaller than his chest. Must be the feminism of the clothing industry.

LOL, ya know I was wondering about what plus size guys do. I am not large guy jacket size 40 or 42, large used to be fine and now I get extra large at least in tee shirts, between the seemingly smaller size and shrinkage in the dryer.
