At my wit's end now. I've gone through literally every "big & tall" style website I can find, checked Amazon, eBay etc etc, and it seems like nowhere sells what I want in my size. So, lets try "crowdsourcing"; I am looking for fleece-lined("polar" fleece, the artificial kind) baggy-ish cargo trousers(ie at least a couple of big leg pockets), colour is irrelevant, ideally with belt loops instead of(or as well as) an elasticated band, also ideally with toggle-pull tighteners at the ankles but that's not a dealbreaker, with a 42"-44" waist and a 34" inside leg(along the lines of these or these but not shoddily made elastic or in misleading small Asian-market sizing respectively).

I'd also like a pair of fleece-lined 60%+ cotton jogger bottoms in the same size, don't care if they're open or closed ankle or about the colour.

I was going to say "UK/EU only", but sod it, at this point I'll happily(well, grudgingly, but still) risk getting hit with a ridiculous Customs charge if someone in Canada/USA/Norway/other cold places knows a shop that has what I want and ships to the UK.

How big are you?

You could check campaign and hiking shops like Cotswold Outdoors, Blacks, Mountain Equipment and Decathlon.

They always seem to be having some kind of sale and while the top end stuff is a bit pricey, the own brand goods are much cheaper.

I literally just saw fleece lined cargo pants last week at........ Walmart. I had to buy some more pants for work and thought about buyinng them but realized I'd burn to death wearing fleece. And they went to sizes that were bigger than what you're asking for. They didn't have the pulls on the bottom though

worth looking at these for larger sizes, not sure if they have what you're looking for though

I'm just over 6'3", heavily built, and presently a bit overweight, so you can imagine the issue You don't even want to know what a pain in the arse it is to find shoes & socks with size 15 feet.

I've checked the sites yourself and Orlando recommend already, sadly nowt; the outdoor gear stores don't stock anything above a 38-40" waist in regular length(usually 30" inside leg), and the big & tall places don't stock the kind of items I'm after. Walmart, sadly, don't ship to the UK they just direct you to Asda who they own in the UK and who don't stock nearly as wide a range of stuff.

is this the sort of thing ?

Out of stock here but brand name might be of some help.

Carhartt might be worth a look. They have a Big and Tall line of clothing. Theit clothes are a bit on the pricey side, but they last for friggin ever IME.

I have a Carhartt and I love it. YOu should be able to find one that fits easily. I'm about 5'11 and mine is a bit too long. Super warm, and durable. Can't go wrong with one of them

They don't appear to have any fleece-lined stuff in their big & tall range, just basic trousers & jeans :/

Have you tried TK Max? Every time I go in there, all their stuff seems to be made for giants. You might find something in the winter sports section for skiing/snowboarding. Also if you're at your wits end, you could look into having something made. It shouldn't be hard to find cargo pants in your size, and I'm sure someone would sew a lining into them for you. It might not be as expensive as you'd think, and you'd have much more choice over the style.

That's a good suggestion actually, I mean both of them; 1. TK Max is worth checking because they have a wide variety of stuff that often cycles, 2. the idea of having a lining attached to ordinary trousers.

As a third suggestion, how about unlined trousers and wearing leggings underneath for warmth? I do it for my rowing coaching (it's fething cold sitting on a launch on the river. I'll probably wear three layers on my legs in the mid-winter.)

As for sizes at outdoor stores, you can also order direct from manufactures (Rab, Berghaus, Craghoppers, and so on) but the largest sizes available are generally 40 inch waist and 34 inch leg.
