Mood Fabrics has many free patterns and most go up to ~63” hip. There are sometimes drafting problems especially for larger sizes so we don’t often recommend them unless we have tested. However, it was the only source of free Menswear patterns in this size range that I could find aside from a few T-shirt patterns. Here is a link to Menswear/unisex. All Gender Patterns
Here are the Woodsia shorts, which Jim would LOVE.
