Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Lupus / May 2007Clothing help needed
Hi all, I am asking a favor. Can and will someone maybe tell me where I can buy some long sleeved, lightweight cloth, banded bottom shirts in 3XL size? My sweet wife has discovered that the Rit people have a product to provide the proper SPF treatment after market. This opens more opportunities for us. Summer will be here soon and long sleeves are hard to find in Arizona! BTW, the above address doesn't work for E-mail. You may write me @ GEParton@aol.com if necessary. Thank you in advance. George Hey George. Rit sunguard is a good product, I also use it a lot on my long sleeve shirts. As far as the 3XL size, my son is that and he gets some of his shirts at Wal mart. Is there one in Arizona? How about JC Penny? Most all stores here in Ohio carry the Big and Tall guys clothing any more, just like the woman's 3XL too. If not do a search on line and see. Sometimes EBaY has long sleeve shirts in your size and used but are nice clothing as well. Might save you a few bucks too. There is a BIG and TALL catalog you can order from too. Called that BIG AND TALL for MEN. good luck. janers > Hey George. > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > good luck. > janers Thanks Janers, The problem I have is the "banded bottom" part. I have many regular shirts, even summer weight, but getting the "banded bottom" helps mask my suave avocado shape. (G) Jokes aside, one can wear suspenders under the "banded bottom" types which is much more comfortable than a tight belt on my achey-breaky lower back. I have some of the guayabera "Mexican wedding shirts" but they stick out in front like I'm near ready to deliver! My posture doesn't help. Rather than being stooped I must lean back in deference to the pain in my back which exaggerates the maternity look. Even though we can't control Lupus, it seems somehow to control us, doesn't it? Again I thank you for your input. George George, the only answer I have to the banded bottom would be take whatever regular shirts you have to a cleaners that does alterations. We ordered some "pit crew" shirts for my son's racing team and thought that they were banded bottom (square hem, to wear outside) but they were not. Unfortuantly they charged 6.00 a shirt to hem them.

Now to find that seamstress. :>) George Good day all, I wanted to throw my 2 cents worth in. My friend recently found another site that sells SPF rated clothing. It was started by a group of skin cancer survivors. Basically it is the cheapest site I have seen yet. The link is http://www.sunprotectioncenter.com/ I hope this can be of help to someone, Steve Steve wrote: > Good day all, I wanted to throw my 2 cents worth in.

The one reservation for me is the lack of a pocket. A guy has to have a pocket for stuff! Hehe Thanks again, George |
