My father-in-law is a big man as well and he shops for clothing at a Big & Tall shop. He always looks nicely dressed... certainly not cutting edge fashion but he looks good.

RallyEX - you might also look through a vintage place....chances are slim, but if someone dropped one in there (ok, basically died and their family got rid of it) chances are you won't have much competition for the size, and they typically are a helluva lot cheaper than new, but frequently just as nice. I'm not *quite* your size, but I've had some decent luck in there.

i'm so opposite, it's not funny. i have plenty of shoes with laces, but
love not having to tie up...i tend to be the guy who has his bubble-toe skips perma-laced to just loose enough to slip on, and
all of my dress / dressy-casual shoes are loafers / slip-ons.
edit: i kin spel gud.
