Where to find clothes for short, stocky men - UK or online?

Hi

DH is around 5’7and broad with it. He’s slowly losing weight, and recently binned 90% of his wardrobe as it just didn’t fit. It’s really hard to find clothes for him - designers seem to just scale up and down from the average... so shirts that fit his chest / neck size are falling off his arms and most of the way to his knees. Trousers that fit his hips / waist are a foot too long (though they can at least be adjusted). Anything that is a good length is way too tight. He doesn’t have to wear a suit, his style is probably natural / classic so he’s looking for jeans : trousers, shorts, jumpers, and a smart casual coat to get him through winter. Can anyone recommend any shops that cater for short stocky men? We aren’t in the UK but will be there for the Jan sales, and online is fine too (we are in Europe).

Cheers !

OH is 6'2" and skinny. He struggles to find clothes that fit him because the shops are full of clothes for short, stocky men. I don't think your husband will have any trouble finding clothes that fit in the UK.

Lol maybe it’s because we are in France that it seems so difficult - everything here is designed for short, super skinny men!

I'm in South Yorkshire. There are loads of short, stocky men where I live.
