6' 2" 165 lbs makes him about a 40L with a waist around 32", but, yeah, actual measurement would help. This is where AI might actually be useful? If the user could input measurements and then get a view of what those clothes looked like in that size it might help.

Another reading is that she is really bent about having to get up at 2:30 on a Sunday morning and she's going to make him do endless busywork as punishment. Probably a bit of both, actually.
