Men have body issues as well as our female counterparts. When you’re tall its hard to find length, when your short its too much. Big guys cant help but have clothes hang off crazy. Athletic guys who have put work into their frame start to look like they were forced into outfits. Everything should be in proportion. If your slim embrace it as well as if your big. These tips should give you some idea what I mean.
The Tips Every Short Man Should Know
- Be honest with yourself. Admit you’re short and buy short-length suits.
- A pant leg with very little break will help you look taller.
- Show some cuff to lengthen the look of your arms.
- A peak lapel helps elongate your physique.
- A lower button stance creates long lines, and that essentially stretches you out.
- A belt makes you look shorter. The more pared-down you are, the taller you’ll appear. So ditch the belt.
- A slender shoe is better for a shorter man
The Tips Every Tall Man Should Know
- Lighter colors add width to a narrow frame.
- A two-button suit works great on a tall man—as long as the suit has relatively high-cut lapels.
- Just because you’re tall doesn’t mean you need an extra-long suit size. Try on a long first.
- Keep the amount of cuff you show to a minimum.
- Ask for a decent amount of break in your trousers, so your long legs don’t look too long.
- Most tall men don’t have enough length on their tie to reach the loop. If you grew oddly (like me) don’t throw out your old ties just have the tailor move up your loop.
The 5 Tips Every Large Man Should Know
- Wear a pocket square. It brings the focus to your chest, not your gut.
- Keep your jacket buttoned unless you’re sitting down. Wear a simple, elegant shirt. Avoid plaids and checks.
- Flat-front pants are your friend. They are engineered to be comfortable, even without pleats.
- Avoid super skinny ties and lapels.
- Proportion with your torso is key.
- Suspenders will avoid you from having to choose between strapping your pants above or below your belly and float your waist

The 5 Tips Every Athletic Man Should Know
- A solid build doesn’t mean your suit should be a size too large.
- Two-button jackets sync up with the V shape of your torso.
- Low-collar shirts work well with a thicker neck.
- Your jacket will likely need to be taken in at the sides.
- Yes, you can wear narrow-cut trousers. It’s your chest that needs room, not your ankles.
- Look for shirts labeled “slim” or “athletic.” You don’t need excess fabric!
So get out there and embrace your style. Remember if you don’t look good we don’t look good! (LOL). Nah but seriously your shape is your very own so might as well put the best product in view as possible.
