Big & Tall

Big & Tall Clothing: Size Chart

Big is not the same as tall. In big and tall clothing, big sizing widens the cut through the chest and waist, while tall sizing lengthens the arms, body and rise, and some pieces combine both at once. New outlet stock in that range at Tags Weekly comes from Dockers, Geoffrey Beene and Sean John.

What are the size ranges for big and tall clothing?

Size ranges in big and tall clothing typically start around 1X and run through 6X, matching roughly a 2XL to 6XL chest measurement, while the tall designation stretches the arm, torso and leg length for anyone taller than about six foot two. Reading the chest and inseam numbers on a size chart beats guessing from a shirt size alone.

What are the different fits available in big and tall clothing?

• Relaxed fit: extra room through the body and sleeve for all-day comfort.
• Athletic fit: a trimmer waist paired with a fuller chest and shoulder.
• Classic fit: a straight cut through the body without added shaping.
• Combined sizing: a size and a length listed together fit both dimensions at once.

Big & Tall arrivals turn over as new outlet stock, commonly one or two pieces per size, so the men's big and tall shop for shirts, pants and jackets by size is worth a look. A newsletter subscription is the easiest way to see new big and tall markdowns first.
