Let's hear it for the companies that make competitive tri clothing in Clydesdale sizes, do not think that XL = 36 inch waist, offer jammers in higher than 38 inch waists and stock appropriate size clothing online.

I cannot say enough about 2XU in this respect.

I have 2 main companys that I wear when I'm training. One is REI, they have some extended sizes (only a few) but they are true to size and work very well. I just picked up some great deals off their .com outlet on training pants and power stretch shirts.

The other is one that alot of people slam but I got to give prop's to is Under Armour. Being in the Uber Clyderage with a 48 inch waist, they are one of the few places I can find shorts and good technical fabric shirts that work and fit really well. With out being able to find the clothes I have gotten from them I probably wouldn't training or even exercising like I have been.

Aerotech designs have had everything I've needed in large sizes.  They're really awesome!

I second Aevero, especially for the price.

The jersey is a little snug (6'3", 240lbs, with a longer torso).
The material is also not as stretchy as other Jerseys that I have worn.

I figure that it is just motivation for another 10 lbs off...

Do NOT buy any Louis Garneau clothing. I bought an XL tank top and there was nothing X or L about it. I've since lost weight, but that thing wouldn't fit me even if I lost another 15 lbs.

That said, I have LG shoes I love :D

Same here!  I bought a tri top and it was rediculously small for the claimed size.

One thing on tri shorts is that when I buy to fit my waist size, the thighs are extremely tight.  If I increase the size a little, they are loose around the armpits.  (seriously, who has a 3ft long crotch to waist section?)
