Website for tall men suits!!

     I am involved in the Public Relations club at school and in one of their recent meetings I attended the other day, I found out from one of the presenters that he works for a company called H.M. Cole Bespoke Clothing (Bespoke means "custom made"). His company custom fits business suits to anyone, regardless of their height or weight! All you have to do is send them your measurements and they make the suit!
     I went up and talked to him after and got some more information from him. He said that the cheapest suits start at about $350 but that they do offer students discounts because it is hard to pay that much for a suit when you are in school. I was so pumped to find out about this! They really do have awesome styles and you even can have them put in a certain color of lining for the coat and even have them sew in your name on the inside! You can make the suit look any way you want.
     Their website www.hmcole.com is now available so be sure to check it out!
     If you want to shoot the owner, Daniel McConkie, an email it is: daniel@hmcole.com.
     I will personally be looking into this more because I really need a new suit and am tired of just
wearing suits that drown me!
     Just keep this company in mind when it is time for you to get another suit to wear...

My Intro to TALLtell!

Hello Hello out there!

     So, you're probably asking: What is this blog all about? Well, let me give a little intro to myself first. The bottom line is that I am a 6'10'' guy named Adam and have experienced the normal difficulties that come with being tall ever since I was seriously like 14 years old!
     I have had frustrations about not knowing where to buy clothes and shoes that will fit. I have spent wasteful hours having to walk in and out of a lot of stores just discouraged because I saw awesome clothes that would never fit!
     I have wondered about what kind of foods I should eat and what kind of workouts would help me pack some muscle onto thin Jolly Green Giants like me.
     I have been the odd one in the room that stands head and shoulders over everyone else and you feel out of place and stared at. And, yes, you could add hitting your head in doorways and against low hanging signs and ceiling fans in front of people and feeling stupid haha!
     With this blog I want to reach out to my fellow tall people and say....YOU ARE NOT ALONE! The purpose of this blog is to not only post helpful things about clothing locations, health, fitness, or other useful information. I also want to help us feel proud about being "a little taller than normal." I hope that we can also get lots of helpful information from all you tall guys out there and even from the "more normal height" people too!
     For the quote of the week, Julia Child once said: "Being tall is an advantage, especially in business. People will always remember you. And if you're in a crowd, you'll always have some clean air to breathe."
     So lets spread the TALL "tells" everyone and have fun learning, sharing, and appreciating!
