I'll miss their medium-tall size if they're truly gone! Kind of the holy grail for tall skinny people. Anyone have recommendations of brands with similar fits?


-> Its e-commerce and wholesale operations are not affected by the filing because they are operated separately.

Eddie Bauer the brand is not going bankrupt; the company that runs the brick-and-mortor stores in North America as Eddie Bauer is. So if you get your Eddie Bauer from anywhere that isn't an Eddie Bauer store you should be fine.


I was an Eddie Bauer XLT guy for years until they suddenly made them way too skinny. Best fitting shirts ever. I am wearing one of the old ones right now. Land's End Tall sizing is a good fit although some of their fabric quality is a bit iffy—especially the colorfastness of their dyes. I have had two of six shirts be unable to endure professional stain spot removal by a dry cleaner. The greens and grays seem to be the most fragile.

I have always meant to take one of the few remaining right-fitting Eddie Bauer shirts to a tailor to see if they can be used as a pattern to make more shirts.


I'm the same size. They still have tall variant tops but tall bottoms/pants seem to have been gone for a while now.


Buy many now; they don't spoil. Keep them in the closet and pull out a new one when the old one wears out.


Yeah I've been this and it's great. saves me probably tens of hours of wasted time per week and I can still get DMs and see what my friends send me.


I've found the same. And thinking it through, I can't come up with a mechanism for how a few more CO2 molecules bopping around in a sea of nitrogen and oxygen changes anything about how my lungs exchange the CO2 in my body with air around me. These counts are ppm, nothing!


If there's twice as much CO2 in the air, twice as much CO2 goes from the air into your blood.


CO2 enters the blood in the body, it comes out of the lungs. If you breath too hard you loose too much CO2 and your blood pH will go up. That’s why you breathe into a bag when hyper ventilating, to keep that precious CO2 in.


So much of this now and so much more coming.


Three times, while photographing these little critters, I've had them jump straight onto the camera lens. A startling experience!


Seems 1:1?


Not true, they're just defective and degraded quickly, resulting in the odd color.


How do you expect them to implement that?


Well so far it works to just add ”-ai” so it feels like a pretty easy addition


Ah yes, 'spread democracy around the world'


I appreciate your appreciation of that statement. Thank you. :)


Ha I had to stop tracking my bike commutes because I was going way too hard for Strava times on them. It got to the point where it was sorta dangerous... Love the app for my fun rides tho!


You sacrifice a segment then go like a mad thing for the one you need to win. And you curse if a dog walker gets in the way, sort of encouraging antisocial behaviour. But if you can get past that stage it’s pretty rewarding to ignore segments and go for longer records (eg 20km, 50km etc).
