They *start* at 4x. However, the length is going to be tall because they are for men so you might have to adjust for that. <br /><br />Columbia should have 4x rain pants in the men's extended sizes. Again, you might have to adjust the length. <br /><br />I've gotten 4x rain pants from Junonia before. However, lately they don't seem to be carrying outerwear like rain pants anymore. <br /><br />I write about finding larger sizes in boots and coats and pants etc. for women with larger legs due to lipedema here:<br /><br />http://wellroundedmama.blogspot.com/2015/09/lipedema-series-part-6-finding-clothing.htmlWell-Rounded Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04129621631406155340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4738062031052371885.post-5647032665070202622015-11-17T16:12:39.567-08:002015-11-17T16:12:39.567-08:00rain pants in 4X needed!!!!

Some of the links will be out of date, but many will still be good. See what you can find there.<br /><br />It's hard to find maternity stuff in extended sizes, it's true. You might want to consider a company that specializes in (non-maternity) extended sizes and get a style that works okay for maternity, like an elastic waist soft knit pant. pluswoman.com goes to 10x, for example. <br /><br />Also, Roaman's and the like often carry extended sizes in stuff like that. Look for yoga pants, anything with an elastic waist, sweats, or drawstring-waists; they all work reasonably well if you can't find a specifically maternity pant in your size.<br /><br />Or there are special button inserts/extenders that you can use on your regular pants to extend the size for a while in the beginning.<br /><br />Best wishes finding what you need!Well-Rounded Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04129621631406155340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4738062031052371885.post-83402519791047450622012-07-19T13:34:43.814-07:002012-07-19T13:34:43.814-07:00I wear a 32w (4-5x) currently and I am 8 1/2 weeks...I wear a 32w (4-5x) currently and I am 8 1/2 weeks pregnant.

It doesn't seem to be 100% perfect (and tops out, for women's sizes, at US 24/UK 26), but it gives an idea, and IME sizes can be inconsistent enough even in a single system from one manufacturer to the next that checking measurements is a good idea.<br /><br />Lexi: I don't think I have anything for snow pants, but I can probably give you some sources for bathrobes - is it just that you're not sure of where to look, or that most plus-size doesn't go up to your size? If the latter, you might look at <a href="http://www.pluswoman.com/index.cfm" rel="nofollow">Plus Woman</a> - their stuff tends toward the dreaded "dowdy and tentlike", but that's not as much of a downside for bathrobes and other things where warmth is the primary consideration, and they cater to much higher sizes than a lot of places. (I'll note that I haven't shopped there, so this isn't a rec, just a suggestion.)<br /><br />If it's just not being sure where to look, comment again (or contact me directly if you prefer), and I'll see who-all in my link collection does bathrobes.<br /><br />WRM, I hope you don't mind a first-time (AFAIR) commenter being so linkful.<br /><br />SunflowerSunflowerPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15069913788437731669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4738062031052371885.post-83522072419167077892011-01-06T21:21:28.824-08:002011-01-06T21:21:28.824-08:00Lexi, Junonia has ski pants in plus sizes for wome...Lexi, Junonia has ski pants in plus sizes for women. Can't speak to their quality. However, I did get a pair of "soft shell" pants from them and they are quite nice. A little long for a shorty like me, but they seem to be good quality.<br /><br />400lbs., love your blog. Thanks for letting us know about the wool coats at Making It Big. Totally did not know they carried coats.<br /><br />Kel, I'm not sure how our US sizes translate to UK sizes. I'm thinking you go up or down one size (think I read that somewhere) but I don't know which it is, up or down. I bet you could google it and find out though. <br /><br />Does Columbia have any stores or catalogue shopping in the UK? They might!
