I’m 6’3” and weight 230. I might get into a size 40” with an elastic band. That’s why I’m having a hard time believing this 220-pounder can fit into size 36.

I'm 6'1" 230, fit well in regular relaxed fit 38" inch jeans. Larger up top though (size 50 suit jacket).

I’m 5’10 201lb and fit in a 34 with a belt or 32 sucking it in. 33’s are hard to find but they fit perfect. Sometimes it’s just how we carry the weight. Some have dickydo. Their gut sticks out farther than their dickydo.

Not long ago I was 225 with a 36” waist. dropping the 8-12 cans of Dr Pepper a day is what did it for me.

*shrugs*... Back in the day, when I was 6-pack fit, I was 6'2" / 265/275, and was pretty much 36-38" at the waist... And always XXXLT t-shirts... BIG ain't necessarily FAT.
