Where can a big tall guy like me find BDU's local?

[Frank]

Needing some decent BDU type pants for SAR work. 44 x 38 so they are a little baggy. I need to be able to try them on though, so I don't want to do mail order. Tan, black, od green, etc.

The problem I always have with any pants or jeans is that MOST places do not carry anything over 34" length. I need 36 at the very least and 38 will do.

GT distributors has plenty of fat fucks clothing. Its all 5.11 mostly but its in stock.
They have an in house tailor too.
I'mm 44 waist..

have you checked out the local Army Navy Surplus stores? I browsed the one in Grand Prairie a while back and noticed a lot of clothing/uniform stuff.

I have two totes full of BDU, DCU and ABU's but not in that size. Gonna take them all to the Army/Navy store one of these days.

He's a size chart. Looks like you're gonna need a 2XL/X-Long

Omaha's on white settlement in Fort Worth. They have lots of new Proper BDUs and I think they should have the size. May want to call first. It's my favorite military surplus store. Kind of like a toy store.

Last time I drove by there the entrance on White Settlement was closed. I think you have to enter on Whitmore, once block south. FYI..

Omahas Surplus
Fort Worth, TX 76107
2412 Whitmore St
Fort Worth, TX 76107

Do they have to be actual BDU pants? I ask because Walmart usually has cargo pants for pretty cheap.

They could be cargo. Just something that looks semi-formal and with some pockets would be nice, but I have never found my length at WalMart. I generally have to buy jeans and such at Atwood's. I generally wear just some old stained up jeans since we have been known to be out in the woods, creeks, etc getting dirty looking for missing persons. We have been asked to assist in a Sept 11th remembrance ceremony and I need something nicer to wear with my uniform.

Get the right measurements and order online.

Proper or 5.11. If you order online go to lapolicegear. Tons in stock and easy exchange for other sizes if you need.

Yeah, length will likely be your biggest issue. I know they carry at least up to 44" waist, but probably not much longer than 32" inseam. Too bad though, I get their Wrangler brand cargo pants for camping and they work great and are pretty cheap (around $20).

The down side of the military BDU pants is they don't come in standard measurement sizes, so you really have to try on an assload.

You might try BassPro or Cabellas too, though I think you will still have trouble with length.

These guys have sizes that should fit you, but of course as a big and tall store they will be pricey. They do have a number of locations around DFW:

A trip to Omaha's as a kid was a reward for doing well in school. Love that place.

There is also the Dickies outlet in Fort Worth, they should have what you are looking for (Duty / EMT uniforms).

I went to the Army Navy Warehouse in Farmer's Branch and got 2 pairs and a belt. First pairs I picked out fit perfectly. I am really surprised how comfortable these are. I'd probably wear them all the time if I didn't mind looking like "Tacticool Tim".

I didn't have a enough time to check out boots. Looking for something black and not too heavy. All the combat boots feel really heavy. I am completely flat footed, so not all boots work well for me. My feet are so flat I make suction sounds on tile when I walk.

Oakley, under armour(don't last as long) and converse all make lightweight boots.
