Title: Ideal height for guys
Post by: Joe_R on December 27, 2006, 09:05:32 AM
What do you think is the ideal height for guys? I would say around 6'2" tall. You are not to short and not real tall.

The height you are referring to would be about 6 feet. 6'2 is tall. Average height is about 5'9

6'2 i think. I'm 6'3 which is close enough. Starting from 6 - 6'1 it gets harder to fill out your structure though. Above 6'4 it's starting to get inconvenient.
 
The height you are referring to would be about 6 feet. 6'2 is tall. Average height is about 5'9

Maybe in US. Here in W-Europe the av. height is more. In holland it's a rediculous 6'3 i've read.

Sorry, I was speaking of the US! In Holland average is 6'3? That is very tall for a average!  I am about 6 foot and feel average. I think the 5'9 thing is a bit off.

Ideal for what?  I'm 6'2" and I can tell you the world is made for shorter people.  I never have enough leg room when I fly;90% of cars do not have enough leg room; shower heads are too short, etc.  There are advantages to being tall but day to day, it's not all roses.

6'2" is not tall for a basketball player and it's too short to qualify for http://tallmentogether.com  One has to be 6'4" to qualify for that.  ;D ha ha ha

Shit im 6'2" - 6'3" and i wear a 36 in inseam and a size 14 to 15 shoe. thats all american sizes... But let me tell you finding pants in my size sucks ass either to short or there made for some fukcing fat ass who wears a 60 in the waist... And findin shoes is a bitch they dont make very cool shoes in a 15 and if they do they cost a grip or i have to special order them as some dipshit who makes 5.25 tells me "we dont keep that size in stock not very many guys that size..." i always wanna front snap kick the idiot and ask him "then how come i cant ever get shoes at this piece of shit...." And i agree with the shower head not being tall enough or airplane leg room... and forget about a sports car... i make a 4 door really uncomfortable for whoever sits behind me unless they are a kid or a small adult as i tend to end up with my back in their lap... When short people say i wanna be tall.... i tell them "you can take length off yoru pants, but its a real bitch trying to add length..."

Sin, I am 6'2", my brother is 6'4". My friend is 7'3" and wears size 24 shoes. He makes me feel like a midget. Shaking his hand is unreal. Seeing him unravel out of his modified minivan is funny as hell.

Yeah bro im pretty much all legs and arms... Its a real bitch because all my shirts have to be XXL and my girl tries to fit me into XL saying that they fit better in the midsection but then in the arms it looks like im wearing a tank top or my little sister long sleve my arms are hella long to.... Yeah the big foot issue sucks ass. My dad's like 6'6" or 6'7" and he waers a triple E in width his feet are hella wide.. he has a pain in the ass with shoes there either uncomfortable or he has to special order them but hes also like 340lb now but no less then 325 in my whole life...

I agree.  Tall enough to be functional at sports, not to tall to be awkward and have a hard time fitting into things.
