Mens Size XL

Could anyone enlighten me as to the rarity of male XL clothing. After visiting Habenaras and La Zenia today I was amazed by the lack of XL sizes, and before those of you that have too much time on their hands, I'm 6'2" 15 stone and work out twice a week, so don't carry to much timber!!!

I wear size XXL and it seems that when shops get shipments of t-shirts etc. there’s one XXL, a couple of XL and the rest are large, medium and small.
The same goes for shoes - my feet are size 11 and you re lucky if there’s one pair in a batch.

Maybe it’s because they’re made in China and they think that people of our size are freaks!

Really? I'm also an XL and never seem to have a problem finding those sizes. Unless it's the sales bit where they're trying to get rid of all the S and XS ones (Primark is bad for that) but XL in C&A, Springfield, Zara Men etc never seems a problem.
Mind you, 6'2 and 15 stone you may be looking at XXL. I'm only 5'10 and weigh 12 and half stone but XL (or sometimes L depending on the shop) is fine.
eg. Tried on an L in Springfield and it was fine. Same type of sweat shirt in Zara Men and it was XL.

Perhaps the idea of a shop for the stout man would be a good idea. And open a fashion up market shop not ripping the stout man of. Selling at prices. The same as other shops. In quesada or near the golf club and also trainers up to size 15. And shoes. Also. It’s what’s needed. Don’t you think.

Somebody else will more than likely come up with the address but I know some are not too far from Carrefour. I've been to 2 but know there are more.

We visited the Salvador Artesano factory, they have shops all over Spain and ship all over Europe. You could contact them online and see if they do sell your size before visiting
