clyde sized knickers ?

For a couple of months now I've been looking for a pair of cycling knickers.
In the past I've made some by cutting and reshaping various type of pants,
not my forte. So I have been looking for a more tailored looking pair.
An XL is the largest most in vendor's range, this works out to a 37 or 38 in their size charts.
I've emailed or spoken with reps from all the outfits that I'm aware of that make
cycling knickers; Chrome, Swrve, Portland Cycle are a few that I can recall.
None make any larger. One vendor said "there just isn't the market for larger sizes".
My question-
Does anyone know of a maker of bigger biking britches ?
I'm looking for some decent appearing knickers, size 42 ?
Thanks.
