I feel your pain.
LBSs carry very few things in XL and nothing in XXL. Most of their stuff is XS, S and the occasional M or L.
I live 3 hours from an REI, but I have found some XL stuff there and yes, they're often on clearance.
....I've got Terry shorts, some in XL and some in XXL. I'm not satisfied with them though. The XXL (or is it 1X?)'s I have are too big, the chamois is too big. It's bulky and it bunches up to one side. After 15 miles or so, I may as well be riding on the frame as on the saddle, because that's what it feels like.
But The XL's I have are almost too small. I'm also thinking that my chamois in the older pair of shorts has worn out too fast (fabric bunches to one side).
If anyone finds some XXL's with a minimal chamois, I'd be thinking about buying some.
