Tops for skinny tall blokes!

Hi, can anyone tell me where I can get long sleeved tee shirts or sweaters (casual) wear for my DD's boyfriend? He's 6'8" tall, skinny with long arms and I want to get him something for Xmas. I got a short sleeved t-shirt last year but don't want to get the same thing again. DD says it's quite hard to get him jumpers as the sleeves are normally too short but I would like to surprise him and find something!
Thanks in advance.

I can only sympathise!
My son is tall and skinny , 6ft 4". i buy large shirts and tops to get all the length there is and then I have to vroom up the inside of the body seams with my sewing machine to slim them down!

em, why are you buying him clothes, surerly thats a bit personal
there are lots of other easier options to choose from, if all else fail then get a bottle of bubbly, chocs and socks !0 -
M&S do long ranges in the arm and leg, especially great for suits and shirts with an extra 2" sleeve. I buy DH (6'9") clothes from BigFish online sometimes but often just go for regular XL sizes as he likes things a bit baggy!0
