Oh crikey, this here Men's USA page is supposed to be all finished and I haven't made this picture fit this unusually tall space. Stone the crows. Knowing that this site is obsessed with attention to detail I had better selectively stretch the legs for absolutely no apparent reason whatsoever. Sorted.
Thanks to rayeslepex! Original is here!

Mens USA: It's Stilt Baroque And Droll To Me!

I have to ask if "Micorfiber" is also an error...
I have to ask if "Mathcing" is also an error...
Looks like he's on slits, ha.
I have to ask if "Itlalian" is also an error...
Click on "why buy from...", it's hilarious:
"While Ralph Lauren, Gucci and other “name brand” designers make decent suits, they do not meet our company’s standards."
Teenage crack addicts at work!
My legs are that long. I'm just loving those oddly-resized badges in the middle.
Anna: Suppose that the company standards they refer to are "there are no stray threads hanging out of the seams."
verification: criven
A combination between driven and craven.
awful...
Oh God. That's just an ugly website through and through. Look at the artefacts on "Celebrating 25 Years". Any site that puts that up has bigger problems than hiring basketball playing clowns to act as models.
Look at the wonderful masking job on this mess. Click on the image to enlarge it, to enjoy the full effect.

I don't know what's more disturbing- that dude's legs, or the fact that I actually own a suit like that.
No... no, he's really that tall. Italian suits totally do that to your legs. Haven't you ever tried one on?
:-Þ
WTF is this?

@ Zaphod
...that made my eyes bleed. Thanks.
Oh goodness. This is on their "contact us" page:
"Please Put your cell number or contact phone number so we can be able to call u back."
Wow.
Zaphod - the hell?
(Also, that page is evil. It resized my browser.)
My favorite part of their website is the fact that it's all pink (including that one guy's bubblegum-shaded face). Because everyone knows MEN LOVE PINK. And using a button background that looks like pink satin sheets makes men want to buy buy buy, right? Right?
'Mens' (what, no apostrophe? Not even a misplaced one?)
'Itlalian'
'Micorfiber'
'Mathcing'
'Cufflink' (singular)
Then there's the seemingly random capitalisation, the blocky 'graphics' and, of course, the stretch-legs.
I eagerly await the obligatory, "I don't see the problem" comment.
Right now, there's a picture of a guy in a suit with shoes over his face on the front page. I reloaded twice because I couldn't believe what I was seeing. My kid made a better website when she was 11.
Oh, yeah, and my kid wrote better English when she was in elementary school than whoever (if anyone) proofed that site.
It actually looks like the guy is wearing the suit while standing knee deep in a very still pond ;)
something not right here either...

I sent them my resume, as a proof reader and photo retouch artist.
I will let you know if I get a response.
Check out the "Mens Exotic Skin Shoes" link.
Then please tell me WTF a string ray is.
and here I thought white suits went out with Saturday Night Fever.
this is so FAIL it's almost parody.
That picture of the guy with the shoes over his face can't be real, right? Also, what color is "bergundy"?
Haha. I hope that guy uses that photo is his model portfolio.
"Click on images to enlarge" what for? they already did a good job on the legs without a click from me!
And click on the Red Suits link, notice anything slightly missmatching?
LOL!
This is what they have on the bottom of this page (http://www.mensusa.com/products.aspx?id=1092):
"One of the reasons people don't buy from you is the perceived risk they believe they are taking in purchasing your product or service. These risks include:
Making the wrong decision
Losing money
Not receiving what they paid for
Not being satisfied and then not being able to recoup their investment.
There are a number of risks that people must hurdle over to purchase your product or service. One strategy to overcome these risks is to offer a rock solid guarantee that will make their purchase risk free, or at least decrease the risk as much as possible.
A strong guarantee makes it less threatening for people to consider your offer. You lower the barriers that prevent people from doing business with you. You give them a compelling reason to buy today without fear of looking bad tomorrow. By removing the risk to buyers through guarantees,"
No, I didn't leave out anything. That's it. Kind of reminds me of this disaster:

Nah, it's cool, he's one of those Anime characters where their legs are like 5' long.

Did you notice that you can see who designed/managed the web site? I would be embarrassed to have my name on it.
http://www.mensusa.com/page1.aspx
Maybe he's actually standing in a pool of water and this is a true to life reflection....maybe.
It's just his shin that is elongated. Maybe he has shin implants.
"Oh, you'll grow into it"
Hmmm…
The picture doesn't fit the box. Should I add an extra foot of wall over his head, which would take 2.7 seconds of photoshop work, or make his shins 3 feet long…?
"Did you notice that you can see who designed/managed the web site? I would be embarrassed to have my name on it."

More importantly, who is the graphic designer, er, "Web Graphic". Oh, look! Christopher Brown. I guess he realized that beating up your pop star girlfriend isn't good for your career, so he took up "Web Graphic" as a fallback.
Just don't ask him to "punch up" the colors.
Looking at the picture links in the middle of the page, why does the guy on the far left have really red skin? Too much sunbathing?
He must be one of those horrid entertainers on stilts. I always wondered where they got their clothes?

The squeezed guy in the link you posted was the bone donor for the guy on the first page with the 8' legs.
Word verification: ackaftt, which is either the expression the client makes when he sees work like this or the sound my cat makes when throwing up a furball.
"You made the coat and the vest fit the best....
But Saaaaaam, you made the pants too long."
Silly people, this isn't an error, it's just an ad for a men's Big and Freakishly Tall store.
he could just have freakishly long legs
LongMan is...
Ah, you get the idea :o
You know when people complain to website designers, "What is this? my 12 year old son can do that!"
Apparently this is what you get when said people go through with it.
Word Verification: sadly
I often do browsing on the internet to know about latest trends in mens fashion. but I have never seen so much variety in mens clothing and mens suits at discounted prices. I am so excited n looking forward to buy these items very soon!!!www.suits4menonline.com
Not a disaster -- manstilts are in for Spring.
OMG, tears are coming out of my eyes right now. He is one freakin' tall man!!
And LOL @ the previous commenter.
- The Home theater installation gal ;)
I love how there's no good reason for the photo to be stretched at all. The heights of items in the table cells to its right are so much shorter.
Finally...somebody's caught on to the stilt fad :-) How freakish! He's even missing his right knee :-)
I didn't know Vulture Man did ad work.
