First, I didnt know whether or not this would be the right place to post this as its not really CCW specific but I guess it could be used that way.
I hope I'm not the only one that has this problem. I am looking for some nice polo's and tshirts that are longer than normal. I apparently have a long torso and all my shirts barely make it past my belt. If i have a XL shirt it looks like i'm swimming in it but is long enough.
Does anyone suggest a certain brand that is normal than others? I know Under Armor Polos are long but damn are they expensive.

Look for "tall" sizes, like XLT.
I must be about the same size as you, I swim in most XLs and standard larges aren't long enough.
As Newracer said, "tall" or "long" is the key.
I really like the Gap classic polos in LT. It can sometimes be hard to find the color you want in stock, but they are worth looking for. I buy them online.
Old Navy has tall sizes too, but their fabrics are generally really thin which is bad for concealment.
I'm still looking for tall Tshirts that are thick enough.
Let me know if you find any other good brands of polos or Tshirts.

If you willing to spend the money, Under Armour polos are the best ive had. They are pretty long, and comfy. But unless you find a good deal they are about $80.

Sears in Lakewood has Dickies brand that seem to have a long length and style/materials. I use one over my t-shirts to hide ccw.

511 also makes some nice shirts. I have one short sleave button shirt that is long enough to for outside the waist wear with shorts. What also is nice about it is the sides open along a vertical velcro seam and the lower button is really a magnet so you can open the front enough to draw as well.
My exefficio shirts are plenty long that I wear when I am in the outdoors. Roll up the leaves when war roll down if it cools off.
Always have breatable shirt under to draw sweat and to keep the checkering from rubbing on my skin.
The more choices you give yourself the easier it is to always carry otherwise situations will dictate if you carry or not.
