A Complete Guide to Big and Tall T-Shirts for Men

A Complete Guide to Big and Tall T-Shirts for Men

As a tall man, searching for a T-shirt is an endless battle. Shirts can either be too short or don't fit well. B. Love understands your frustration. We understand that tall men seek t-shirts that match their height while providing comfort and a cleaner appearance. That's why we've compiled this comprehensive guide to big and tall t-shirts, not just to assist you but also to remind you that you're not alone.

Why the Common T-Shirt Doesn’t Work for Tall Guys

Most common t-shirts are not designed with taller guys in mind. The common issues: 

  • Length: More often t-shirt lengths are too short, usually falling just below the waist, at times resulting in the irritating "crop top" impression when raising your arms.
  • Poor Fit: Loose designs make tall guys appear broader rather than proportional.
  • Shrinking: The possibility of t-shirts shrinking after being washed is probable, thus rendering them unwearable.

If you're tired of dealing with these issues, we're here to tell you that there is a solution.

What to Look for in T-Shirts for Tall Men

When looking for T-shirts for tall men, keep the following things in mind:

  • Longer Length: A good tall shirt should have extra length. On average, the common t-shirt length is 26–28 inches in length, while the typical tall t-shirt length ranges from 29–30 inches. A good length for tall t-shirts is in the range of 29–33 inches.
  • Better Fit: Big and tall does not always equal large and baggy! Universal t-shirt sizing is not the best solution for all men; tall men in particular come in various frames in varying proportions. Look for t-shirts that offer sizes in a slim cut and regular cut in addition to the length.
  • Quality Material: A quality t-shirt can go a long way “literally” wash after wash; a t-shirt that can maintain its form with minimal fabric deterioration is top quality. T-shirts comprised of high-quality fabric, such as pima cotton or mesh, i.e., cotton and elastic, can help with t-shirts lasting longer. 
  • Options: Consider brands that offer various design options for tall t-shirts, ranging from v-neck shirts to crew neck shirts in multiple colorways and styles. 

Styling Tips for Tall Men

Now that you know what to look for, here are some ways to dress a tall t-shirt. 

  • Casual Cool: Tall T-shirt pairing with jogger pants or fleece pants with canvas shoes for a relaxed yet trendy look. 
  • Layer It Up: For the cooler days, a long sleeve t-shirt paired with your favorite jeans or tall twill jogger pants with low/mid-top shoes offers a sleek layered style. 
  • Just Relaxing: For the mundane relaxed days, a tall t-shirt worn with tall shorts or sweatpants with sandals or slip-ons for the I’m just chilling today appearance.

FAQs

How do you size a big and tall t-shirt?

Big and tall shirts are crafted differently than normal tees. "Big" refers to wider cuts with more room in the chest and waist, while "Tall" suggests longer torso and sleeves. Our t-shirts are specifically made for guys over 6'0", assuring the ideal combination of length and fit. Check out our size chart for additional details.

What size is considered big and tall for men?

"Big and tall" usually refers to men who are at least 6'2" or have a larger frame (XL or greater). Our shirts are made for guys who need extra length and fit (offering both slim and regular) without compromising on the sizes. Offering sizes in:

  • BSS - B.Love Slim Small
  • BSM - B.Love Slim Medium

Are tall tees expensive due to extra fabric? Which sort of clothing works best for tall men?

Doesn’t have to be. Although more fabric is used in constructing a tall t-shirt, the cost to own one shouldn't be catastrophic. Fabric composition and where the shirt is sourced from will play a role in the final cost. We at B.Love focus more on quality while being cost-effective.
