TAILOR MADE: Luckily, pro athletes can afford to have their clothes custom made. . . . Why? Because most jocks “can’t wear suits” off the rack, says Costa Mesa clothier Rick Lamitie, tailor to Magic Johnson, among others (E2). . . . It’s not just because of their size, he says, but because of the outsized proportions of their bodies. . . . The average Joe with a 34-inch waist takes a size 40 suit. But a weightlifter with the same waist can take a size 50 suit, Lamitie says.
