In a lawsuit filed Wednesday, a Chicago clothing store — Casual Male — alleges New York Knicks center Eddy Curry ran up a tab of more than $41,000 on clothes, and two years later it remains unpaid. Gulp.

Kara Spak of the Chicago Sun Times reports:

''It's just a matter of him buying clothing he didn't pay for,'' said Edward Margolis, the attorney representing Casual Male and Jared M. Custom Clothing, a business popular with professional athletes that once was owned by Casual Male. [...]
Purchases on Curry's shopping trips, which occurred between January and April 2006, included $22,000 in suits, eight sweaters ranging from a $750 wool crew-neck to a $1,390 cashmere V-neck and more than $3,700 in ties.

The company also wants an additional $5,424 in interest.

And yes, before you ask, Casual Male is the largest specialty retailer of big and tall men's apparel, with over 520 store locations throughout the United States, London, England and Canada.

Big and tall. Eddy Curry. Go nuts.

Everybody knows you can't repeat an outfit on national television. For Curry, that's 82 new suits ever year.

Something is wrong with this picture. Are you telling me that Casual Male just let Curry walk out without so much as presenting a check, or at least a credit card, with all those clothes???
Curry must have thought the clothes were a 'gift'.....LOL....

Fellas I always like to hear everybodies controversies. If we keep the black, white junk out of it. It would be real interesting without getting personal. A plea to all black and white. Get as sarcastic as you want but let that stupid old race card go. Owing on clothes thats pathetic.

Nice black panther...way to show the world that black people really are more racist than white people. These comments had nothing to do with race. Only the fact that Curry is a 7 ft tall basketball watching (not playing) waste of space...kudos buddy

Take a note from Rasheed Wallace fat boy. He gets away with rummaging through charity bins. Spend more time on working out and less on buying clothes.
