    Not sure if discussion about specific brands is frowned upon, but I'm in the market for cheaper alternatives to Bonobos. I can't find anything in stores that fit as nicely as what they offer: small size, slim fit, short length. But a single short-sleeve shirt costs ~$85. That is if it's even in stock.

    Looking for a brand recommendation for a men's cardigan. Preferably wool, not too thick, and as close to bifl quality as possible. Any price point is fine.

      First name that comes to mind is Pendleton, they do a variety of wool goods and are certainly BIFL if taken care of well. I'm not sure what weights they have available in men's cardigans but I'd take a look at them for sure. I came across a Duluth Trading company wool sweater in a thrift store and I was impressed by its quality, so I'd recommend them too. J Crew is also always worth looking at for a quality staple like that. Good luck!

    This is a bit location-specific, but does anybody know where I can shop for "big & tall" men's clothing in Germany? Particularly for pants. I'm trans so I'm really short, but I'm also fat which isn't the best combo for shopping in Europe.

    The usual fast-fashion stores don't carry any jeans with my waist size even for taller guys, much less for someone my height. I know where to look in the US, since a lot of the big clothing stores will just have a separate section for this stuff, but I haven't had any luck finding it in Germany, and I've only got like two pairs of pants that I'm comfortable in, which is definitely something I'd like to change.
