Ways to Shop for Big and Tall Men's Clothing Made Easy
Unfortunately, for a very long time there was always a personal and social stigma tied to buying clothes for big and tall men. The unspoken opinion by many people was that these shoppers were overweight or unpleasant, and that's why so many men avoided publically buying these clothes.
However, now that stigma does not exist for the big and tall man that it once did. That's because the clothing sizes have shifted enough that people who were considered "normal" just a few years ago have now been designated as "big and tall." This means that department stores and "normal" retailers are more likely to carry these clothing sizes, and that more designers are likely to design clothing for it as well. Here are some hints to help you look your best in big and tall men's clothing.
It's always best to actually try on the clothes before buying and leaving. You really cannot trust the labels because the sizes are not standard, plus there could be differences with how the material was cut. There can be wild variations with some being huge on you, while others being grossly too small. No one likes that sinking feeling when you get home, try something on (the first time), and realize it doesn't fit - and you're looking at a trip back to the store.
So just trying on first, in the first place, may save you a return trip plus getting annoyed about it later. Has it ever happened to you when you see something that looks great, the label says it's the right size, but when you got home it doesn't fit or look good on you? See if you can find clothing that is cut with a lower waist.
Pants cut with a high waist line aren't suitable for most body types, which could be a reason why they're not available much these days. You want to choose pants that sit a little bit lower on the hips. These can help lengthen the look of your torso. You should try to look for pants that will sit a little below your waist. If you have a bigger middle area, you will want to avoid very low rise pants because these will just give you the look of having a "muffin top" which is probably something that you want to avoid.
Look at the sales racks first. It's quite common for sizes that don't quickly sell to be placed on the sales racks. This can work in your favor because the regular sizes usually sell at a normal pace, but the very small or very large sizes do not. So actually being a size that is not common can help you save money.
It's now easier than ever before to find clothing that looks great and fits just right too. Don't let the "big and tall" distinction stop you from wearing what you want. Every day more designers recognize the need to create great-looking clothing to suit every size range and style. The fashion industry stigma of a decade ago has changed, so that what used to be 'big and tall' is now a part of the accepted sizing range. What people think of as fashionable changes regularly. You might find that as more people learn to love their own bodies and ignore the unrealistic fashion magazines, the 'big and tall' distinction could disappear completely.
