help finding brands for Tall guys
I need help finding stores online (that ship to or are in canada) that carry tall sizes for button up shirts and such as I have a hard time finding things that fit without having to go up a size which usually results in it just being bigger and not longer. For ref I'm 6"3 and 220lb

Do you have a price range you’re trying to stay inside?
On a single piece. Probably 100ish dollars, if I know it's gonna last me I can justify saving for something a little better in the long run.

This was a good recent post about this: /r/tallfashionadvice is a good resource for finding tall sizes, but overall the community isn't super fashionable.
I'll also mention that I'm the same height as you and most of my clothes aren't tall sizes. I've found it more helpful to know my clothing measurements and buy based on that, a lot of shirts and tops work for me in an L or XL if I'm not looking for a slim fit. If your inseam is 34 or shorter you shouldn't need to go too far out of your way to find pants that fit, either.
@Please Go Away even if you get the right measurements for certain things, don't you still find the way it sits to be to short? Imma be honest I'm semi new to trying to look better and it does get a little confusing at times
What do you mean by sitting short that wouldn't be captured in the measurements?
I'm 6'7" so I could probably rattle off quite a few brands that do tall sizes to keep in mind, but just as a point of advice, it's always good to know what your measurements are especially when you're talking tall sizes.
But I generally buy from Lands' End, L.L. Bean, J. Crew, and a few smaller brands here and there that do one off tall sizes for things.
And since brands are so cagey about making the exact measurements they use for their tall sizes available, I'll often use eBay listings where sellers measure the clothes to gauge how they size their clothes since every brand is a bit different.
Also, avoid American Tall, everything I've gotten from them has disintegrated
@NickDaRick that's unfortunate, I was just looking at American Tall this morning and there where a few things I really liked lol.
