One thing I like about Japan is being tall here but one thing I don't like is being tall here I find it very hard to buy clothes and shoes that fit me. I need to find places with nice suits and ones that don't cost the Earth. Any fellow big people out there what can recommend LARGE clothes and shoes in the Kansai area?

I'm also big at 198.3 cm.

Rolling stone, are you in Tokyo? Aoki's is pretty good (when they have their big sales, a bit pricey normally), with stores in Takadanobaba (near Seiyu supermarket) and a few　other places. Also Zenmall in Shibuya is quite good, they also have a sister store called Shamall in Ikebukuro.

エフワン　(F1 in katakana) do tailor made suits starting at 19,000 yen.　There are many in Osaka, which is in the Kansai region, but don't know how many stores there are elsewhere. Same price for smaller people or bigger people. Their 19,000 yen suits are the same as the other shops suits etc, but it takes about 2-3 weeks from when you order.
