Can't find camo that fits me. Help!

Apparently I'm a freak when it comes to my size. Shopping for camo has become more frustrating than I care to admit.

I'm 6'2", 190 lbs, with a 32" waist.

I can find pants that fit my waist line just fine, but they barely come below my knees in length. (obviously being over sarcastic) I can find them long enough to meet my needs, but I have a problem filling out the 40" plus waist lines they have. I told the find folks at Bass Pro that their entire customer base must be very out of shape hunters that are 5'4" and 400 lbs on average.

This is pretty consistent with about anywhere I go. I occasionally get lucky and find some that fit ok when I'm standing up, but the second I sit down I've got a pair of knickers on.

Pants that are sized by waist and inseam can't be found on a rack with a length longer than 34". You can forget buying pants in a general size such as XL, or XXL. Their test fit dummies have been eating too much.

Anyone else with this same problem?

Yup, got to agree with ya. At 6'2" and right around 200 pounds it's hard to find a 33" waist and a 38" inseam!
 
At 6' 3" 190 I know what your saying. I had good luck with Cabelas, but not on the computer. Ive called them and explained the problem. So far they've gone above and beyond to help.

That is the one place I was hoping would come through for me. Haven't had a chance to go into one and find out yet. They are building a store in our area as I type this. I'll get the chance to find out in about six months.

Even the big camo store options won't work. Those tend to cater to big and tall. A 32" waist is little to them. They don't have anything that will fit me in the waist.

Ordering online with trying on is out of the question.

I am 6'1 between 195 and 200 (depending on the time of the year) my pants are 34x34. My problem doesnt seem to be the pants as much as the arm length. My arms extended out measure 6'4. I seem to have pretty decent luck with Large Tall stuff. Have you tried any of that? Now thats talking about pants or a shirt. I dont even want to get started on bibs or coveralls.
 
Hey, us average size guys have problems also. I'm 5'10, 185 and when you look for cloths all they have are XXX! A big sale on camo comes and all thats left is tent sizes in 2x,3x,3x.
 
I haven't officially tried the big and tall camo option, but I have looked at their products online. I have zero desire to purchase anything I can't try on.

I have a funny feeling I may fit into their "tall" catagory, but not their "big" catagory.

Just seems like the manufacturers think all of their customers are short and fat, or tall and fat. (feel free to flame me if offended) :)

Know all about it. At 6' 5" and 225 it always seems kinda silly to me to go shop for decent hunting pants and all you can find are ones that have a waist size of 46 and an inseam of 30. Or have to buy a shirt big enough to wrap around a small car to get one that is long enough to tuck into the short fat pants.
