Does anyone know a good place to buy an extra-large tall vest? The assortments I have been able to find in the central Massachusetts area are pitiful. Thanks, Pete P.S. Cabera's and L.L. Bean's catalogs are on the way, but I'd like to compare, if possible.

I saw various outdoor clothing items in XXlarge at the WearGuard
factory outlet in Somerville (near the Lechmere MBTA station).
They didn't have "real" fishing vests but lots of rugged outdoorsman
clothes which included vests (some in camo). Prices are very
reasonable. They also have one piece coveralls that had mistakes
in the embroidering of company names, etc. that I found to be much
cheaper than at second hand clothing stores. These are great for
working on your car, truck, tractor, whatever. Good luck.

Check out the OUTDOORSMAN on Rt 12 in West Boylston, MA. In the past they have had a fairly good supply of fishing vests/hunting vests etc. in tall and xlarge sizes. The store recently changed hands, but I haven't noticed too many changes there.. As a side light LL BEAN is only a couple hours north of central MA in Freeport, ME and is open 24 hrs (or used to be anyway). Sounds like a trip directly from work would still get you home in time for the 11pm news. Al | |||||

LL Bean also has a 'bargain basement' which is the only way to
shop at that place.

Clem Lanza (who works out of VRO) has a shop in Leominster and I
know he carries the Columbia Sportswear line of vests. These come
in XXX-L. Other nearby places are Hunter's in New Boston and the
Kittery trading post in Kittery, Me.
hope this helps
