I bought some Dollmore glamour model shoes thinking they'd fit his big ol' feet but they were too small. My husband's solution was a dremel. Noooooo! haha
Carters 6-9 month sized shoes fit. And they were only six bucks on clearance. ha! So you know I'm going to start the hunt for some wee tiny work boots. He's currently wearing a 6 month Rabbit Skins brand t-shirt and a pair of 6 month khaki pants. The pants are way too bit and will have to be altered. I also bought him a tank top. At least there are SOME baby clothes that aren't covered in adorable cuteness.

Wow he looks pretty awesome there (loving how you made that wig btw)
He's looking pretty well kitted out! Gah I'd have never have thought of baby clothes for a Giant BJD - I don't think I've seen much about that isn't either "It's a boy!" or "It's a girl!!" themed. (I have seen some baby-Timberlands though! O.o Actually they might be less expensive than bjd shoes anyway even with the brand mark-up...)

He looks good in that get-up - would never have guessed they were baby clothes!

That shirt looks good on Jim. I had thought that it was a doll shirt.

Thanks everyone! These clothes have worked out really well. The pants need to be taken up but folded and tucked under the t-shirt you'd never know it.

Poor Jim. He looks so manly yet is dressed like a baby!
Actually, I'm thinking how awesome it would be to have a doll that can be dressed with clothing found in most normal shopping stores. Even from the clearance racks!

It's worked out really well so far. Those shoes were only six bucks so I'm hoping to find a work-boot or hiking boot style on clearance as well. I think that the neck line of the shirt is off but it's not a huge deal for me.
