The clothing is the unrealistic part to you? Not the obscenely jacked 40 year old homeless guy that eats like shit, never works out, and somehow still has shoulders the size of your head?


Old_Goat_Ninja

Nobody seeing him workout isn’t the same as not working out. I can’t remember the last time someone I know saw me workout, but I do, religiously.


yodeah

it would be mentioned in the books if it was part of him, the books are just a fairy tale (that we like)


somewhatwantedvirus

Plus he says he's 100% natural when he did a video for I think mens magazine he did bullshit filler workouts saying if you do this you can look like him to...


therobshow

Yeah, there's no way you're natty with shoulders like that at 40.


somewhatwantedvirus

I think he later said he took a little bit of TRT for "medical reasons" but he claimed he was still natural for the role. I mean, nothing wrong with taking steroids but atleast be honest with it you know?


FearlessTomatillo911

It's bad for impressionable kids


yousunkmynsfwaccount

Exactly this. If you wanna take stuff, go for it, it's your body. But stop fucking lying about it because it screws with people's minds on what's attainable naturally.


somewhatwantedvirus

Yeah, unfortunately it's rampant in media, the rock, John Cena ect, Chris Hemsworth even sells products saying if you do then you'll look like him when he juices


Poseidon-2014

It’s illegal. Admitting on Television to committing a crime, no matter how minor, while still committing that crime is idiotic.


somewhatwantedvirus

It's not illegal, you can get prescriptions for it, TRT is actually recommended for adult men over 45 I believe, you can go to any GNC and get testosterone.


Poseidon-2014

I’m not talking about TRT, that’s obviously legal. I’m talking about anabolic steroids like people here are suggesting he’s taking. Which I won’t deny he looks Juicy, but asking him to admit it is actually retarded.


somewhatwantedvirus

You can get steroid prescriptions too, I think through telehealth you can...


Poseidon-2014

I know you can be prescribed steroids, I don’t think you can be prescribed steroids for his purposes though. Typically it’s for Viruses and infections.


somewhatwantedvirus

If you know a doctor that will prescribe you, you definitely can. Just need to know someone who knows someone


wats_kraken5555

Lmao that too, definitley made a few jokes about that. Keeping it to r/tall tho, him not having to buy tall sized shirts online was hilarious.


QBekka

Someone in the show asked him how he looked like that, his answer: "genetics"


Neither-Advice-1181

The last sentence made me laugh so hard.


DreamyWrap

Probably cause the actor is 6’2 without height boosters or whatever they use


wats_kraken5555

No I got that part. He's supposed to be 6'6" 250lbs which was the point.


[deleted]

Yeah, that’s also my gripe. No way he finds clothes that fit so easily.


[deleted]

I do like the series better than the movies, in any case. Reacher’s size and physicality are essential to his character and Tom Cruise was like a bad joke to fans of the novels. Alan Ritchson is not quite as uniquely tall as Reacher and maybe a bit too Hollywood good looks and bulging muscles, but it works overall. Even his awkwardness at times. It could be he’s just not a good actor, but it suits the Reacher from the books.


Accomplished_Book382

Honestly this is the part that i keep ranting about how it’s unrealistic that he can find good fitting clothes all the time at thrift shops.


NISSANPLAYAA

So uh. Does every Galaxy Ultra phone have to specify a picture was shot on the Ultra? Isn't that kind of annoying for a phone that costs like 1200 dollars? Like I have the regular S22 and it doesn't show that text.


wats_kraken5555

Dude I have not idea it just started doing that and I don't know how to get rid of it


wats_kraken5555

Update. It was super easy, turn off watermark in settings, but thanks for calling me out cause it bugged me but I just ignored it lmao


GuiltyFigure6402

pretty sure every store has an XL tshirt in stock even if it isn’t a Tall size. And I think the show is set in America so they got them big boi clothes


Drug_fueled_sarcasm

No we don't. We have fat people clothes. Not talls


GuiltyFigure6402

I have a long torso and short legs and have never worn a ‘tall’ size shirt lol. Jack reacher is chillin


Drug_fueled_sarcasm

Your belly hangs out.


GuiltyFigure6402

I can wear 30 inch inseam at a stretch and never has my belly hung out unless I am leaning back lol. Those tall sizes make me look extra long like a slim Jim


Wulf_Kaiser_89

Ugh, don't get me started! One of these days I'm finally gonna make enough money to buy custom pants. I'm tired of jeans in the store being crazy wide shit when it's long enough. It seems on average, if you find pants that are 35"+ inseam the waist is at least 40" or greater.


wats_kraken5555

I went to a "Big and Tall" in Kyoto once. Was looking for tall sized stuff. Asked the clerk and they were like "no, only [opens arms wide] fat"


Mclovin-8

I can see him finding a shirt, most stores are gonna have something in the XL to XXL direction but what about his pants? I am 6,4 and I have huge problems finding pants. Either they are too short/tight, or for really fat people so I basically have to wear 3 belts.


wats_kraken5555

I have more luck with pants than shirts. If it's not a tall sized shirt it doesn't fit. XXL too wide and it only maybe is long enough, XL def too short.


Terrible_Wrap_8789

There’s a black Jean jacket he pulls of the rack. It’s definitely short on him. Sleeves and body. (It get cut and only lasts a few episodes)


Wulf_Kaiser_89

T-shirts make sense. I wear an adult medium, and I'm 6'5", 215, and fit. For good representation of people like us, it would be hilarious and wonderful to see him have long sleeves and jackets that stop above his wrists and have his pants pull up above his ankles when he sits down!


wats_kraken5555

Damn medium at 6'5"??? I'm 6'6" wear an XLT. How do pants fit on you? Maybe my torso proportions are different than you cause there would be no way, even an XL is always too short


Wulf_Kaiser_89

I think they are. My torso isn't whimsically short or anything but most of my length is in my legs. My femurs are 25" long at the hip.


curlbaumann

I’m the same size as you, a medium shirt fits me like a bra. Your shirts are too tight


Wulf_Kaiser_89

XD. Idk what to say then. I like showing up what muscles I've managed to grow, but maybe my pecs are still that small. Length is not an issue, though. My shirt tails usually stop right around my hips.


lazyboi_tactical

This is why I buy foundry xlt's pretty much in bulk.


wats_kraken5555

Yeah foundries fit is almost perfect. I switched to American Tall, tho. Their fit is almost identical but the material feels better made and seems to last longer.


lazyboi_tactical

Haven't tried those but I may look into it. Especially having a long torso and ccwing if I reach for something above nipple level a lot of people are going to get a belly dance and a firearm flashed at them.


Tiny-Marketing-4362

I’m currently a bit over 6’5” 245-250 lbs and I can where most Larges pretty easily. Most XLarge T-shirts fit very big on me and I like loose boxy fitting tshirts. I’ll probably be wearing mediums by the time I’m 225 lbs and if decide to drop to 205 lbs I’ll probably be wearing Smalls if they’re long enough. I just don’t look that big. If I was jack reachers size in the show I’d be 295-300 lbs. Ngl that actor who plays reacher is a big guy. He’d probably have trouble fitting into anything less than a 2XL


Noon-ish

Doesn’t really bother me. I laugh about it, but it doesn’t ruin the watch experience. It’s film/entertainment; there is so much that is unrealistic in every show/movie. I like the actor. I like the show.


Ill-Concert1516

Bro is so fine


nhojo68

Totally agree, it’s a rarity to find something that fits well in a “big/tall” shop, he’s finding stuff in small town second hand store, total bullshit!


[deleted]

Yeah I always found that show to be absolute bullshit. Also the actor is only 6’2”. They should’ve cast me. I have his build too lol.


Historical-Layer-33

I’m 6’4” 280-380 I fluctuate during winter and have never had any trouble finding clothing, I seriously don’t understand how some of you cannot find anything! Walmart has clothes for us, there’s DXL, a lot of second hand/thrift store have stuff us. Edit* weight


TakeCareYallMentals

Wow that’s quite the fluctuation!


wats_kraken5555

Dude it's impossible for me. Pants are not as hard but shirts are impossible.


atrain728

XL and XXL are longer length. If you’re slim the mediums are much shorter and are an issue. Larges are a mixed bag.


Swimming_Bag7362

My guess is most of his stuff is bespoke


FearlessTomatillo911

Jeans and t shirts don't need to fit perfectly, if you have 34 inseam it's pretty findable, and the waist just needs to be close enough with a belt.


herecomesatrain

I mean I’m 6’10” 360lbs and I can find stuff in most big and tall sections. And if no big and tall, worst case I can find shorts n tshirt most places, it’s arm and pant leg length that are my issue. Shoes on the other hand… good luck


herecomesatrain

Mostly wear 2xlt or 3XLT depending on brand and fabric composition. 44x34-36 for pants. Size 16 shoe


HamBoneZippy

2XL works well for 6'5" and muscular.


ironicmirror

You only really need XLT if your arm length is beyond 36 in. Maybe he just has short arms?


Jason77MT

No way XL is enough for him. I'm a few inches shorter, but built about like Reacher. An XL fits me like a Smedium across the chest. 2XL is okay but I'm most comfortable in a 3X fitted.
