It's not that 34 is fat. It's fat when your waistline measurement is bigger than your length measurement. It's like seeing pants for people who are like 44 waist 32 inseam. who the hell fits in that shit?
I wear a 34/32. :(
Just don't go beyond that. hehe.

I wear 34/34 right now. I was actually a 33 when I was about 15 lbs heavier years ago. It's just that I carried it in my neck/chest/shoulders. Now more if it has migrated south. heh.

Over 30,000 deaths a year are caused by obesity in England alone. A study by the National Audit Office in 2002 estimated the condition costs the NHS £500 million a year. The overall cost to the country is estimated at up to £7.4 billion a year.

Adult obesity rates have almost quadrupled in the last 25 years. Now 22% of Britons are obese and three-quarters are overweight

The number of obese children has tripled in 20 years. 10% of six year olds are obese, rising to 17% of 15 year olds.

England :olo:

Banana is not bad, their Jeans are pretty good if you can get them on sale. Also, never buy clothes from a store where the item is normally 70-80$, and it's on sale for $20. That means it was never worth shit in the first place and you should not shop there- they're just trying to change their image and target simply by raising prices. EXPRESS, I'M LOOKING AT YOU.

OMG. I had hoped the dawn of the fat people was just a Dutch/German thingy.

The only thing worse that a super fatty is a NAKED super fatty at the local beach :(

I have the Porter Vintage Straight jeans and they have no moose on them. I like Abercrombie because their shit fits so much better than everything else. Hollister is a close second.

You did right. Fat people should have a social incentive to lose weight asap, and if they forget how what or why it's every normal persons task to remind them.

I'm the same, aside from Abercrombie. I never really found any of their clothes that fit me well.

I like B.Republic and I've bought several pants and shirts there, but everytime I go in, I have to hunt around to find the 2 nice shirts out of 50 that don't look gay.

Pac Sun always has some good shirts.

I've been buying a lot of my pants at Old Navy lately too - they have some of the most comfortable jeans anywhere. I like loose-fitting jeans without the big stove-pipe legs.

I remember making a topic ages ago knocking fat people for making it damn near impossible to buy 'proper fitting' clothes.
And I also remember getting flamed to fuck because of it....IS IT ME?!
But anyway, I make my own loincloths.

I've found that mostly everything but mainly shirts from Abercrombie & Fitch, Hollister, and PacSun fit the best. Old Navy, Gap, and such don't fit as well. Then again, I'm a big believer of "you get what you pay for".
