Mens trousers
Where shall I start? I am a tall young man and I find that the majority of mens trousers (suit and jeans) seem to be longer in the crouch region which I find horrible and annoying for me when I am shorter between waist and crouch than what seems like 95% of men. Without getting trousers made, can you get trousers that are more 'tighter' in the crouch area at all?
Jeans I am not so concerned about, but suit trousers I am. I am wide, but tall (35" waist so I need to get a 36" trouser with a long leg). I have brought trousers from Debs suit department and the likes to only come away with trousers that fit me poorly.
any recommendations?

Only things i can really suggest are try out different shops as fit and cut varies greatly, i know i have a similar problem with work shirts and sleeves being too short, i just needed to shop around.
Second thing is get them taken in somewhere (not sure if that can be done in the crotch region) dont know if you have a Slaters menswear near you but they offer exceelent service including making any alterations to the clothes as needed.
Sorry its not a massive help.

I know what you mean with the pleated style trouser that gathered around the crotch and made you look like you had a terminal condition when sitting down, but I wear a 36" leg and more and more stores have suitably 'no fuss' suits and trousers that look fine.
I bought a couple of suits recently from an independent shop in a town centre and for very little more money they made them to measure too. Maybe go into a shop and ask.

Cheers for the replys. I am now not sure I should of mentioned this on here, but ha ho, I know you are only bantering
I will ask in shops to see if they will alter the trousers.
I have been into a High and Mighty store in London where I brought long sleeve casual shirt and it just had a long body and rather large in the arms, but was not really long enough in the arms. But luckily, there is a Haws & Curtis and they are perfect for long sleeve shirts, so much so I have about 5 of their shirts. Enough about shirts, now, I am going into MK tomorrow, so I will have a good hunt around and open my mouth.
