The clothes I bought at Zara several years ago did not hold up well and were barely long enough for me (34" sleeve and 34" inseam).
What are the exact sizes you need, ssr?
Haven't been to a tailor in a good long time so I don't know my exact measurements (but I may be headed to one soon if I can't find anything on any rack here in Buenos Aires that actually fits) but I think I'm right around your size (34" inseam, for sure). Most importantly, though, I need everything (shirts, pants, whatever) slim fit. Can't stand having a bunch of extra fabric flapping around me.
And, yeah, never been able to find anything I like at Zara and the quality does tend to look a bit questionable. Frankly, all of the chain joints here in BA (the Argy ones and the international ones) are pretty disappointing. I think a company like Diesel, for instance, just dumps crap they can't sell elsewhere here in Argentina.
Man, why is finding a cool shirt or two and maybe a decent pair of jeans so damn difficult here in Buenos Aires?! Bet its not too much of a problem to find a douchey sweater to toss around my shoulders, though...
