021/365: Quest for Flannel
🕑 Added 2020-01-21 18:43:55 +0000 UTCI'm sure there are going to be more shots of this shirt. It's part of a recent shipment of clothing I got on Amazon, and I admit, I rolled the dice on it a little bit. Flannel is fickle and it doesn't tend to stretch a lot. But I thought… Who knows? Maybe an XXXXXL will work? (Chinese sizing, so more like an XXXL, but still...).
Alas, the buttons barely close, there's some pretty substantial gapping, and if I breathe too deeply, the thing will probably pop right open, giving eye injuries to anybody who happens to be within the range of a flying button.
Oh, and did I mention that I kind of fall out the bottom? In case it's hard to tell…
One day, I keep telling myself… One day I will find a downright tent of a flannel shirt, and will then ask my seamstress to achieve the impossible.
[Ed. note: It may look like the girls are getting uncomfortably squished, but no worries. It was a "stage squish," and they're just fine.]

If you’re looking into those sizes be sure to add the T it gives extra length

Hello. I think it looks good on you and I hope you will find the right size. I was worried about Olga and Natalia at the beginning but the note at the end lifted me up xD

Wouldn’t mind being the recipient of that gaze though ☺️

I just did — thanks for the reference! They definitely cater to my shape, and the fact that they're men's shirts is no big deal... that's what my seamstress is for! (Though she'll probably roll her eyes and sigh, lol)

So much cotton... Well, polyester in this case. But you get the idea.
Heather Beck
Awww, shucks! (blushes)
Heather Beck

Not sure if you've looked into them already but KingSize has flannels in XL up to 8XL. They're a big and tall clothing retailer so the added length would likely benefit you given the state of things in this photo, haha. Their flannels are on sale right now too

Talk about the Thinker?

Just as long as its not too uncomfortable and not to belabor the point you should have to see what your size is dependent of course the particular size

Fantastic, flannels are hard to find when it comes to size or design for sure
