    I found a couple things on Amazon, there just doesn't seem to be any easy way to tell if they have 'tall' sizes available on whatever you're looking at until you actually click the item, which led to many sore disappointments until I found something that was both tall and decently close to what I was looking for.

    JC Pennys & Herbergers carries B&T. Another good place to look is outlet malls.

    Just skinny as hell. Food doesn't stay on me very long, but it's not like I'm actively trying to burn it off.

    I'm 6'5/210lbs (still growing too at 28) and have a god awful time finding clothes as well. Eddie Bauer and LL Bean work pretty well for sizing, and Kohls actually has a lot of Tall sizes. I have a client that runs a Big & Tall shop, so sometimes I get him to special order me stuff. Most Big & Tall shops cater to just that, big and tall. Cabela's works really well for sizing as well, and I buy a lot of regular clothes there (excellent outdoors clothes for hiking). The hardest aspect of sizing I encounter is I'm a 36" length in pants, and I have about a 7'2 armspan.

    As for being tall with a low weight, when I was 23 I was 6'3 and weighed 120lbs. Eating healthy and lots of time in the gym has caused me to gain ~50lbs in the last 8 months.

    How much do you eat a day? AND HOW OLD ARE YOU?

    Regular clothes aren't much of an issue. A men's large will usually fit me just fine for what I need it. But dress clothes are a whole nother fucking story.

    I was trying to get a blazer a few weeks back and I had to make do with one that was a size too big just because the only other option was having one custom tailored and I sure as hell wasn't going to pay 300+ for a blazer that I don't truely need for a little while.
    I have the same issue. I'm about 6'2" though and range between 120-130

    xD I eat a good amount usually. I'm 17 though so my metabolism is still through the roof. I expect to become fat as fuck once I hit about 25 or so xDD.

    I wouldn't say I eat a lot, but if I'm hungry, I eat. I'm 28 now. If it works similar to my dad I should start thickening up just before 40 (he wasn't skinny then, but definitely added on a little weight at that time).

    6'6" 140 is way beyond skinny though. Being your height and also a health nut, 140 is just unimaginable for me. I felt bad when I was close to 190.

    How many calories do you eat a day?

    Normalish bowl of cheerios w/ 2% milk, 6" subway turkey cheese lettuce tomato cucumber w/ bag of lays, handful of bitesize snickers, dr. pepper can, dinner varies but a normalish to smaller meal. That's about a normal day. I don't usually eat much at one time. The sub I will munch on from 1 to 4 easy. I almost never finish a meal at a restaurant cuz they are more than I can eat at one time. I also only eat when I'm hungry, definitely not because "its time to eat" as I've heard from some people I've talked to about weight. Part of my problem with not eating much at once comes from the fact that my chest wall is recessed some, so that pushes things around a bit more than most and I get to that full feeling faster without room to expand.
