Question +++Plus size First pyjama top
Hi
I'm not happy to say, I currently need large and long clothes to wear.
I am trying to do something about my overweightness - but for now need to live as best I can.
Is there any chance that BA will carry very large size pyjamas ? Currently, for a T-shirt I need a 3 or 4XL and normally in a long fitting.
I can of course take my own baggy t-shirt - but thought PJs might be a nice touch.
Thanks

The extra large size is how can I put it politely, huge and long but I would take your own just in case.

Take your own. I had to use a pair of mediums as nothing bigger left and it wasn't massively comfortable.

They tend to come up big but sorry to say I don't think that big so you will likely have to bring your own. When I take BA PJs they are L and I am a XL T-shirt. Not even sure they carry XL.

I am currently 2 x XL and I find the BA First pyjama top tight and always take my own T shirt to wear - the L trousers are ok for me.

Okay - thanks for your speedy replies.
So this trip will be in my own garb - but at least I have a target to trim down to.
Sunny day to you all

I wouldn't trust them to have stock of any particular sizes at all. Last twice I travelled F they had no mediums.

I have never received anything bigger than L despite asking for XL each time

At 6' 3" and 15 stone, L is actually big enough for me which supports the other comments about the sizes coming up quite big. I'd bring your own t shirt if you're much bigger than me though.

I take a pair of chino shorts and a t-shirt to change into after take-off. I find the pyjama fabric is too abrasive for anything I'd want to wear or indeed sleep in and I hate that they are full length trousers and t-shirts. I also find the trousers larger than the top which is also not great if you're broad shouldered IME.

Guess I’m under a false impression of what is huge.🤭

I am a little despondent with this thread. I order medium pyjamas and they are a good fit. Now it looks like "medium" uses rose tinted glasses.

Isn’t a M&S size 10 what used to be size 16 a few years ago! The only thing getting smaller is car park spaces.

Spaces aren’t getting smaller it’s those awful large cars everyone’s driving that cause the problems!
